This document discusses the use of insects in estimating time of death and their role in forensic investigations. It begins by outlining the history of forensic entomology from its discoveries in the 17th century. Different types of insects, like flies and beetles, arrive at a body at different times post-mortem and under varying environmental conditions, allowing investigators to estimate time since death. Proper collection and documentation of insect evidence is also discussed. The document concludes by noting the diversity of contexts in which forensic entomology can provide insights, such as cases of abuse, accidents, or toxicology.
