Pikmin are insects: confirmed. Had so much fun presenting at ESC-ESS (@CanEntomologist @EntSocSK) in Saskatoon. Key takeaway: If you want to find the homeowners (๐ชฐ), collect all their homes (๐พ)!

Had a great time at the @CanEntomologist and @EntSocSK Joint Annual Meeting with this amazing @UNBC crew.
We gave eight talks, heard about a lot of other fantastic research, and made great connections.
And we wrapped up at a cat cafe where I made a sweet new friend.
