I am the original 'Bug Lady', breeding and supplying many types of creepy crawly pets. My little home business has now been going for over 40 years, in the last few years I have found myself being called the ‘Spider Lady’ more often than not. Trends are continually changing and arachnids are far more popular than they have ever been before. I have a bug room at the side of our house that is dedicated to keeping a multitude of creatures. Since moving out of London in 2003, my work is mainly postal, so many things have changed over the years. My first online store was set up in 2009 and in October 2012 my current online store went live, the photographs are larger and clearer, the information is more comprehensive and the online ordering is simpler and therefore easier to use. Even I find it hard to believe that I once sent out paper catalogues and waited for customers to post me their orders and cheques. I am still readily accessible by email and telephone and I strive to maintain my position as the most friendly and reliable bug supplier!

Virginia clearly cares about what she does and i only buy my millipedes from her. she has a lot of stock of captive bred millipedes (my preference) and the fact she is able to breed so many species, which other UK sellers sell only as wild caught, i think speaks to her great care of them. all millipedes i've received from her arrive happy, healthy, glossy, and well packaged such that they can't rattle around in transit.

Recently purchased some domino cockroaches from Virginia. What a wonderful experience, kept up to date at every step, all questions answered promptly. Roaches arrived bright and active. Couldn't have hoped for a smoother process.

Order some zebra millepeds. Ghana millepedes and Domino roaches sadly 5 Zebras arrived dead assuming due to cold. Virginia sorted this quickly and was very helpful through the whole process. Animals that did arrive live were really nice quality and super pretty 10/10 would recommend best selection by far. Virginia spent so much time and care into her animals which shows from her years of dedication and how nice the animals are when arrive.
