Insect photography and Tripods?

So im buying a sigma 105mm macro lens to slap on my D80 for some nice macro shots (mainly insects). Now im stuck in an odd dilema, the use of a tripod or not. It seems to me that using a tripod on macro shots would make it almost impossiable to get the insect framed and ready to shoot ect. But at the same time my lens does not feature a VR or anything like that so I dont want to risk sharpness of the image. Another thing is that with a tripod I would be to far away from my subject.. so is there a shorter tripod used in macro photography specifically, if so please tell me (it would be reatly appreciated =D).. Do the pro's use tripods for only insects that are not going to move? But what do they do about bee's, flies, and all those goodies?
