even the butterfly looks cool these days i wonder if its like nail polish color so i can useNail polish remover / acetone will dissolve cured glue, but would likely be toxic to your patient (it's sometimes used in killing jars in place of cyanide), best avoided to be safe.

Superglue would be excellent for this, very light, bonds well to keratin or chitin, sets fast. Work over a piece of Saran wrap or waxed paper to keep your butterfly from sticking to your bench. Dust your fingers with talc first to keep from gluing yourself to the creature.

This is so amazing. It gave me a little more faith in the human race and a little more hope for the future! I once worked a week to make a cast to fix a snail I had accidentally crushed (he recovered in a month or so) so it's really nice to see other people helping helpless creatures.

i am glad i found this video. found a butterfly with severely damaged wings yesterday evening. called a butterfly house and she told me to leave him on a flower for one last meal before a bird eats him -.- i ordered wings online, hope they get here in time. until they arrive he is living in a makeshift home with plants n fruits *shrugs* cross your fingers it all works out!

Does the butterfly need new wings or is it for you to like it more? Also what about pain and infection when cutting it off? What about imbalance due to the glue's weight? You seem to do it not to help the animal but to enjoy it's looks more. |
