Also keep the bottle well corked. Labelit Poison, and do not breathe the fumes (hydrocyanic gas).Insects may be left in it over night without injury to them. Butterflies or dragon-flies too large to drop into the kill-ing-bottle may be killed by dropping a little chloroform orbenzine on a piece of cotton, to be placed in a tight box withthem
