Generally you make a killing jar. You put plaster of Paris mixed with potassium cyanide in the bottom, add water, and let it harden. You put a piece of newspaper in the jar. That gives the insect something to crawl on. Then you get an insect net. Then you catch a living dragon fly. You put it in the killing jar. After it is dead, you take a long pin and stick the pin straight through the thorax on the right side. You make a note where it was caught, the date, time, and weather conditions. You stick the pin in a base.
