Manufacturer's Description
The world’s friendliest, most innovative way to catch spiders! Had enough of chasing spiders round the house? The new Spider Catcher allows you to remove spiders and bugs without harming them! Spider CatcherTM is 65cm long, so perfect for reaching ceilings and awkward corners. Controlled by a trigger handle, the unbreakable nylon bristles surround the insect and hold it securely, without harming, for release elsewhere. A must-have gadget for people afraid of spider’s or other insects, keeping you at a comfortable distance and allowing you to remove bugs without assistance. Great fun for kids, who will love to help remove spiders! Spider Catcher is ideal for campers, caravaners, gardeners or boating enthusiasts who love the outdoor life but don’t particularly enjoy being overrun by insects. It has been tested on hundreds of spiders and never harmed a single one. It is gentle enough to catch daddy-long-legs, butterflies and moths without hurting their delicate legs or wings. Also kind to the environment â€" no batteries required! For the man who has everything! On a recent visit to Ireland, the Prince of Wales was given a present of a Spider Catcher. The Prince was so impressed with the environmentally friendly product that he had a letter sent praising the invention. This unique invention was awarded the Geneva Gold Medal with Distinction. Featured on Big Breakfast, Tomorrow’s World and has been endorsed by Trevor Bayliss OBE, inventor of the Clockwork Radio.

I love this little gadget, so neat, compact & very effective. I am petrified of spiders but have already caught 4 with the Spider Catcher which has given me more confidence in my ability to deal with them. Previously I would be frozen with fear & scared to pass where one was lurking. I would have sleepless nights wondering if it would creep up on me. Now, I reach for the Spider Catcher & grab it quick. It's amazing how it doesn't harm them, I am able to look at them trapped within the plastic with bemused interest. You can then put them outside safely & unharmed. I can't praise this gadget enough, it is the best money I've spent. You need to be quick though because as you know they run fast! But it is very easy to use. The only thing is catching spiders in corners, this is more tricky & you need to sort of shoo it out of the corner & onto the flat which can be a bit aaarggh but grab it quick & job done. I would definitely recommend. I have caught medium spiders in it no problem. Maybe the biggest being about 6mm.

My wife was had perfected the technique of killing spiders with a deadly flick of her slipper if i was not there to pick it up and put it outside so I thought this the ideal present for both her and the spider population of Worcester.The catcher now hides behind the arm chair ready to be whipped out at the slightest suggestion that one of our eight legged eight eyed friends are shareing our living space.The catcher works beautifully picking them up and trapping them while you walk them out into the garden and release them safely onto the lawn so that they can go away breed and invade you on mass next year (such is nature).

I bought one of these for my arachnophobic daughter last year to take to uni, and have been using it since she came home in June. It is fabulous - the spiders here in N Lincs don't stand a chance when I brandish this! It catches the little blighters very effectively and they are firmly held in the bristles at arms length until released outdoors - and amazingly it doesn't seem to hurt or injure them - they scuttle off to terrify someone else. The girl told me in no uncertain terms that it was going back to uni with her in a couple of weeks, so I was delighted to buy my very own from Amazon.
