Carson BugView Bug Catcher with 5 xBuilt in Magnifying Lens, - Safe Insect Catching Tool for Children, Green (HU-10)

I bought this three years ago as a funny surprise because my partner always scrambled to find a bit of paper to slide under the glass for those surprisingly large house spiders that appear out of nowhere. It wasn't meant to be a serious gift but has actually been an extremely practical item! Its not just a toy for kids! This gets used for bees and wasps in the summer (aka 'spicy flies' to the cat) and spiders and moths and everything else that finds its way inside. It doesn't damage the little critters legs or wings when used deliberately and we've used it to let the cat think she's caught the bug while preventing injury to either, so she ends her hunt without distress. With this much extended, frequent use the only concern is that the orange sliding flap has warped slightly on the closing edge so we sometimes have to extend it carefullt so bugs don't try to get underneath the small hump as its closing. Once closed it is secure though, as we've once or twice caught a late night spider and forgotten to release them the next day then found a small web built in there that requires a clean out. This has definitely been worth its cost and I don't think our house will ever be without one again!

Fantastic way to capture spiders and moths trapped in the flat and release them in a humane manner. Previously I'd look for a container and a piece of card but that was too much hassle. I found a huge spider tonight above my bed; captured and released it in under a minute. Hassle-free! This item is well-made and very durable. It is pricey but worth the money if you have a phobia of the insect you are capturing for release as you can hold it at arms length.

Excellent product ! Works very well , slide to open an close with ease , child has used this many times on bug hunts , helps the bugs stay safe too and replace when finished looking at them .

Obviously this is not made for very large bugs, but it’s excellent at capturing and releasing smaller critters for anyone who recognises the sanctity of insect life. My only gripe is that the extending orange “floor” actually is a little too high to force bugs to step onto it; this means the way you have to use it is to box the bug, and either wait patiently for it to crawl onto the clear walls, or gently touch it with the edges a couple times until it runs up a wall, after which you can extend the platform and rest assured knowing the bug shouldn’t get out anytime soon.

Amazing, saves faffing with getting a glass and some card!

Great if you don’t want to squish spiders. Helped me over come a fear of them when there were an abundance appearing all over my homes suddenly.

Brilliant! Catches spiders in the house perfectly and great for grandchildren to observe the bugs.

A great item for collecting spiders in your house and safely removing them outside

Great to use to catching insects, spiders, have used multiple times, just wish they made a larger size for Australia

Eine tolle Erfindung um Insekten und spinnen von der Wohnung nach draußen zu befördern. Ich habe zwar eine Phobie vor Spinnen, dennoch finde ich es schade, dass diesen Tierchen sterben sollen nur weil ich sie nicht in meinen 4 Wänden möchte. Hiermit kann ich wesentlich einfacher und für mich sicherer Spinnen und Insekten einfangen und wieder in die Natur setzen. Hier kommt können Spinnen Mücken und andere Insekten fressen oder auch als Futter für Vögel oder Igel dienen, so wie es der natürliche Kreislauf vorgesehen hat. Das Prinzip funktioniert Recht einfach. Das durchsichtige Kunststoffgehäuse ist von unten mit einer orangenen und dicht abschließenden Klappe verschlossen. Über den Schieberegler am Griff kann dieser Regler geöffnet und geschlossen werden. Wenn das Gehäuse offen ist kann man ihn vorsichtig über das unerwünschte Insekt setzen. Danach scheint man den Schieberegler vorsichtig zurück und das Insekt ist sicher in der Kammer. Danach einfach rausgehen und das gleiche an geeigneter Stelle wiederholen um das Tierchen wieder in die Freiheit zu entlassen. Nur die Lupe hätte man weglassen können...für Forscher vielleicht interessant, so kann die Lupe jedoch auch zu Herpes und Alpträumen führen wenn man hier etwas sensibler oder empfindlicher reagiert.

Génial, fonctionne tres bien, parfait pour faire sortir les différents insectes de la maison sans avoir à les toucher et le plus la loupe pour pouvoir les observer de plus près

Before I would just take a glass and a piece of paper to trap and release bugs. This just makes the entire exercise a lot more fun. And I’m no kid, but the sense of wonder I get seeing bugs up close sure makes me feel like one again.
