The U.S. Department of Agriculture Bureau of Entomology and Plant Quarantine was established in 1934. In 1942, it became part of the Agricultural Research Administration. The purpose of the bureau was to cooperate with state agencies in studying and controlling insects to prevent plant diseases.

From 1940 to 1997, the materials were housed at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago, Illinois, and were used for an exhibit.
