History

A concise historical narrative of NAICS Code 712190-02 covering global milestones and recent developments within the United States.

  • Insectaries have been around for centuries, with the first recorded instance of insect breeding dating back to the 13th century in China. In the 1800s, the practice of insect breeding became more widespread in Europe, with the establishment of the first commercial insectaries. In the United States, insectaries were established in the early 1900s to breed beneficial insects for pest control. In the 1960s, the use of insecticides became more prevalent, leading to a decline in the insectary industry. However, in recent years, there has been a renewed interest in insectaries due to the growing demand for natural pest control methods and the increasing popularity of organic farming.
