Saillong 1 Pack Large Spider Catcher with 31'' Long Handle, Contactless Spider Grabber Removes Release Spiders and Flies for Indoor Use, Bug Container for Safely Capturing Spiders

This is a wonderful bug and insect catcher. I would say even large enough for mice and larger. It is also very sturdy. You have to get use to the sliding trap door, but I am very impressed. Is nice that the handle easily changes length or completely comes off if you want.You can even catch insects on the ceiling and then safely release them outside. I can not say enough good things about this device. God Bless and stay safe.

I felt compelled to write this review as a person who plans to retire to a cold climate with minimal bugs. Unfortunately, I have around 40 years until I can retire and work puts me in good ol' Texas with the biggest roaches I've ever seen in my life.To put it simply--this works, but it's so gross. I bought this initially because I found a dying roach in my apartment, and the first time I used it was for a very alive roach that had me ripping open the box and panic assembling this contraption.I don't know why, but I had the idea in my head that this had some sort of button that would open and close the end so I wouldn't have to get near it. This is not the case. You've got to slide the bottom manually. If you're on a smooth, hard surface like tile or concrete, you can use your foot to slide the bottom open or close, which is barely tolerable. However, if the bug is on the carpet, like the very first roach I used this for, it doesn't close as smoothly and I couldn't manage to do it with my foot. I had to bend down and use my hand to wriggle it closed -- and even though I knew the roach couldn't touch me with the contraption over it, it was terrifying! And once you've got it closed, you've still got a giant, disgusting roach that is clearly visible through the clear plastic.And releasing it, what an ordeal! I've used this twice, and both times I left my building and walked a whole block away before releasing it. There's always the fear that the huge roach will scuttle towards you, so I basically nudge it over to the opposite side of me before I slide the bottom back with my foot, then I lift the catcher and make a run for it in the opposite direction.So yes, it works, but if you are as terrified of roaches and spiders as I am, then know that the experience will still be harrowing even with this tool. My advice is to bug proof your apartment as much as possible (I set up a chemical insect barrier, door drafts, put down some diatomaceous earth, and I clean like a madwoman), and have this as a last resort.

I hate bugs in my house!! I purchased this trap after a terrifying experience chasing a large bug around my home with a broom. I vowed to be prepared and courageous if it ever happened again. Four months later, I had to use the trap for the first time. I successfully caught the biggest bug and must say, I was quite proud of myself. It took some courage to open the trap door and carry it outside, but it was much easier than dealing with the mess of squishing the bug. It works and I feel empowered LOL!

I purchased this product due to a spider and scorpion issue in my home, yes despite regular pest control. If you have ever had to swat a momma spider carrying all her 100 babies you know my pain. This allows me to capture them and set them free. I could not be more pleased with this product. It does not work for my scorpions cause they are too flat. As long as you don't mind getting pretty close because they handle is not very long, it's great. Once you cover them there is a little plastic slide piece that traps them in, and once you get them outside it slides open easily. Great product and it saves some spiders in the process. It is good quality and arrived quickly.

The whole concept of this tool is using a sliding door to easily catch and release bugs and it is entirely dependent on the door smoothly sliding back and forth. Great concept, yet very poor execution! It was easy to assemble but the plastic is very poor quality and the track that the door slides in was rough and very difficult to get the door to slide back and forth. I could barely slide it and even awkwardly using both hands to force it the door didn’t slide. The videos make it seem so simple, but honestly, it’s a cheap piece crap that is poorly made.

It's huge, but I kept one in case I have a situation where I need a bigger one than the one I have. I return two of them because on those the trap was too hard to close. I kept the one that closes smoothly.

We were getting wasps in the house over a couple of weeks so I found these to add to our weaponry. I have used this on many different bugs that get in our house including wasps, LARGE spiders, beetles and horse flies. I suspect this would also work on mice if that is a concern for you. Gives you the confidence to face any bug!

Catches the bugs but can be hard to actually catch it in the box as the shutting mechanism is fairly stiff and can make it so you have to be forceful to shut it, causing mutilation of the bug or cracks in the casing.
