Welcome to our annual Bug Book Volume One

We’re excited for all of our customers and partners to see the fruits of our collaborative efforts. Together, and through the expertise of too many to name, we are anxious and also humbled to share some of the knowledge that has been passed to us from mentors, partners, customers, scientists, and all of those involved who came before us in the microbial industry— their decades of hard work has allowed the industry to advance in great new directions and we’re all anticipating great things to come.

We update the Bug Book annually, sometimes repurposing the same evergreen pieces while introducing new content as the markets dictate and as we continue to improve upon our knowledge, network, and science. We have more pieces than we can fit into this magazine: from industry analysis and in-depth product details to individual species information and market information. If there’s something you don’t see in The Bug Book, there’s a good chance we already have it. Just send a note to bugs@microsynergies.com and we’ll get the information to you just as soon as we can.

From our team to yours: stay happy and healthy… and if something’s bugging you, I hope it’s one of ours.
