Questions & Answers

What if I want to use it for praying mantises?

Yes, I agree with that I've tested it with Praying Mantises and it works perfectly.

Is it possible to keep butterflies in it?

You're right, it can do that. You may be able to move the large species to a larger habitat once they grow larger. In addition, we have the Nature Bound Butterfly Village where live butterflies can be grown.

Do you know if it can be used for lady bug larvae?

In that case, it would be fine.

Can anyone tell me what type of material this is (eg plastic or wood)?

Thanks for getting in touch Plastic is used in the manufacturing of this product.

This is junk! Our previous one had been damaged, so we bought this one to replace it
3/5

The quality of this one is subpar, and it is There are some odd places on the cage where the mesh is stretched out and appears ready to pull and tear, but other areas look far too loose to be of any real use. There is no seal even at the bottom of the swivel door. It would not take long for a lighting bug (for example) to crawl The design of this cage looks cheaply made and like a copycat version of a fantastic design. It is with great sadness that we must return!.

An excellent holder for creatures
5/5

For my son, I love it! The frogs and bugs that my son keeps in it do also come out of it. I just wish there was a bit more water for frogs though. The best price I could find for it was at Target for seven dollars, however. The bill must have been eleven dollars. Thank you for the great product!.

Monarchs are a lot of fun to watch It has only been about a month since we've had it, so I can't speak to its durability
4/5

As it is difficult to get a container of water with milkweed shoots in it in and out - I would like one that is a bit taller. They would probably be more likely to succeed if they were in closed quarters This is the top of the Caterpillars consume a surprising amount of greenery each day for a week or more as they grow. You should always have an abundant source of supply before starting instead of a small plant or two.

The handle is durable and easy to use even by small hands
5/5

I bought this for my four-year-old daughter and she loves it! This brand has already lasted over a month and is easy for him to use. Although he broke another brand after just a few days, this one has lasted over a month. Having temporarily captured each bug to observe, he would then just open the door and leave it outside, hoping they would escape on their own after they were observed.

The game is simple to use and fun to play
5/5

These have been purchased for my grandson several times. His father has a lot of blue belly lizards on his property and he has been catching them barehanded since he was just a year old. (He is now 6 years old. ) An injured one he saved was even cared for in one of them as a temporary home. Despite letting in lots of air, the netting is quite durable and doesn't tear easily. While the children are rough with them, only one of the shirts has ripped and it was brought on by the dog. During our best day, six fish were caught. As summer approaches, I will need to catch more fish. Before he goes home at the end of the day, he releases the fish where he caught them. We have had so much fun with these! I cannot express how much we've enjoyed them!.

size and shape
4/5

I like the size and shape of this cage, however, the door needs to be a little more solid. The cage is not allowed in my house because it could easily be shifted open and allow its occupants to escape. I also found the netting to be a little strange. It is softer than I expected and looser than I expected. Our cage is giving us a good time The following is just a quick list of observations.

Does what it's supposed to do, but is The bug house below is a small one that looks nice
3/5

The main body is merely a flimsy screen that my five-year-old punched holes in with just her finger inside a matter of seconds. Although it has a sturdy handle and base, it is not kid friendly due to its thin section and the fact that it is not kid-proof.

The perfect way to keep critters out! I want to start by saying how much my 4-year-old enjoyed his story! A day or so after we got it, he went "frog catching" and caught three or four frogs and placed them inside
5/5

I found it to be perfectly suitable to store them for a short period of time. However, if you have stray cats in your neighborhood, do not leave it outside with them inside. As a result, the stray cats of the neighborhood easily tore the screen and got to the frogs because I forgot to let them out. You just need to know it's not a cat-related issue Here's the evidence.
