Abstract

A spider and insect catcher comprises a container with an openable window and a handle. The handle may have an inner section slidable within an outer section. The inner section maybe operatively connected to the window so that when the inner part is pulled, the window opens. The container may be made of a translucent material enabling an operator to see when the insect has been picked up. The container may also have an air ventilator through which insecticides may be sprayed to kill the insect. The catcher may also be suitable for catching frogs.
