 One day my mom was cleaning lettuce before dinner and I found 2 small bugs about 1mm in length. These bugs moved quickly so I took a toothpick and had it crawl on it. I then placed it on the slide and quickly put a piece of tape over it. When I first looked at under the foldscope, one of its front legs was actually still moving. It’s amazing how there can be so many small creatures in our food. In fact, we’ve probaby all eaten quite a few of these before without even knowing it.
