Some people were 'bugging out' at the Museum of Arts and Sciences Saturday, for the annual Bug Day exhibit.

Hundreds of people came to the museum to look at the little creatures, and even taste some of them.

Everything from tarantulas, to grass hoppers, and hissing cock roaches were on display for bug lovers to check out.

People also sampled insects on a cracker and chocolate covered crickets. 

Bug experts were on hand to talk to people about the insects.

 
Event goers say they enjoy checking out the exhibits every year, but most importantly bringing their kids out to learn more about bugs.

Brittany Myers from Athens says, "it is important so that the children can see the different exhibits, the different insects and the different variety of insects that they have."

If you missed bug day, not to worry. The museum will host Reptile Rendezvous on July 16.

The state's new immigration law takes effect July 1. With it, comes some changes for both businesses and law enforcement.

The law requires employers, including cities and counties, to use e-verify. It's a system that confirms the immigration status of employees. The law exempts companies that employ 10 people or fewer.

It also says each employer must submit a report to the state auditor confirming they followed the law, and at least 100 random audits will be done by the state to make sure employers obey the law.

The law requires law enforcement officers to verify a person's immigration status if they can not provide identification, like a driver's license.

Officers can check through federal databases or by using electronic fingerprints, but the law says a peace officer can not consider race, color or national origin when enforcing the law.

Some people most affected by the law say they're still waiting on explanations of what it means.
