I think you might mean ENTOMOLOGY, it is the study of insects and a collective term for the study of most arthropods, although there are seperate names for different groups. (Arachnology: is the study of arachnids)
I am entomologist, I have been studying and observing insects for many years, it is my passion, and it is my career.
An entomologist is some one who studies insects, but it can also be someone who just has a profound interest in the world of these tiny giants. It is an exhilerating field with new discoveries being made everyday! The reason I chose to study insects is that there is always something new to learn and insects never cease to amaze me!

Entomology is the scientific study of insects. Insects have many kinds of interactions with humans and other forms of life on earth, so it is an important specialty within biology; unlike many other fields however, entomologists include both persons studying insects for their own sake, and those employed by commercial concerns interested in the control of insects.

Entomology is the study of insects. Etymology is the study of how words are spelled. Since the names of insects are often given in Latin most entomologists must also be etymologists, right?
