Episode 6: Bugs - Will they kill me and have I hurt their feelings?

Andra and Diona Reasonover (NCIS) chat with entomologist Dr. Douglas Yanega (UC Riverside) and learn which bugs aren’t actually that scary, which bugs a scientist says you can kill guilt-free, which bugs are cute, and why we probably shouldn’t call bugs "bugs" at all!
