    What lives in a reindeer’s nose? Glad you asked. In this sequel to Ninety-nine Gnats, Nits, and Nibblers, National Medal of Science winner May Berenbaum offers another classic compendium of creepy-crawly cameos. Read up on our myriad arthropodan indignities and allies as Berenbaum reveals:
    Why the rove beetle gives mind-altering drugs to ants
    How the snail-killing fly enjoys its escargot
    Why Piophila casei doesn’t care when you eat its larvae
    What strange fate awaits a honey ant worker engorged with nectar
     
    As lively as a fly in the buttermilk, Ninety-nine More Maggots, Mites, and Munchers is a who’s who and what’s THAT? guide to Lilliputian life-forms both familiar and obscure.
