Three years later, he published the research results of Metamorphosis of Coleoptera, which impressed his peers with its excellent academic quality and great theoretical significance. 1879, he compiled the first volume of entomology for more than 20 years and finally came out.
1880, Fabres bought an old house with the money he saved. He used the local Provencal language to give the house a nickname-Waste Stone Garden. Year after year, Fables wore a farmer's wool coat and dug around with a sharp pick and a flat shovel, thus an insect paradise was built. He wrote the fruits of his labor into volume after volume of Insects. Until 1907, the tenth volume of entomology came out.
