How it works

  1. Child crouching in a garden catching a ladybird with the green bug catcher1

    Spot a bug

    Find a beetle, ladybird or grasshopper on a leaf or path.

  2. Small hand holding the 20 cm bug catcher with a thumb on the slider2

    Slide and scoop

    Push the slider, bring the jaws round it, then let go.

  3. Close-up of a ladybird seen through the 6x magnifier window3

    Look, then release

    Peer through the magnifier, then slide again to set it free.

Every great scientist started by looking closely at something small. Usually a beetle.

Questions, answered

What age is it for?

Ages 3 and up. The one-thumb slider is easy for preschoolers; keep an adult nearby outside.

Will it hurt the bugs?

The jaws close into a little box rather than squeezing. Close them gently, take a look and let the bug go where you found it.

Does it need batteries?

No. It works with a simple push slider: no batteries or charging.

How strong is the magnifier?

The viewing window magnifies about 6 times, enough to see legs, wings and spots clearly.
