RESTCLOUD Insekten- und Schmetterlingsnetz mit 16" Ring, 36" Netztiefe, Griff ausziehbar bis 59" (16" Ring, 59" Edelstahlgriff)

As a kid I had plenty of the generic butterfly nets with wooden handles. This puts those to shame - this is a professional style net which is far superior to any other butterfly net I've ever owned or seen. Highly recommended.

When I received the item, I was a bit confused at how it all went together (there's not that many pieces). It was easy to figure out, and I was able to grab the great LONG handle net, and run to the pool enclosure, and after a few attempts, was able to catch the dragonfly! As I was using it, the extended handle kept collapsing, which was frustrating, but I quickly figured out that it had to be turned, to keep it al the desired length. Each section needs to be tightened when you are using it. It collapsed just fine, and now we are thrilled to have a strong metal pole, that can help rescue flying critters. I also liked that it was pretty wide, which helped immensely when rescuing the dragonfly. I did some research on-line and learned that as it gets dark, a dragonfly and butterfly will stay still until daylight. This poor little guy had been in there for two days and was pretty tired. I did have to bump him very gently, so that I could catch him, and he started flying and with the help of a small ladder, was successful. It was wonderful to see him fly away free without screens being in his way.

Rod is too small

Lo compré para mi hija que está estudiando biología y le encantó

I’m genuinely stunned with this butterfly net. I had no idea when I ordered it that it would be so impressive. I expected just a chintzy rolled metal shaft, and a flimsy net attached to a wire hoop. And that would’ve been just fine - we’re catching butterflies here, not wolverines. But the product I received definitely surpassed my expectations. The hoop folds on a hinge, making it compact and easily stowed in a bag. The handle threads into the hoop, securing the folding sections together. And the telescopic shaft is actually good quality, like a heavy-duty radio antenna. It feels very sturdy when extended; the telescopic sections slide smoothly up and down, with enough resistance so that it won’t accidentally collapse. And I didn’t expect it to be this long (TWSS)! I hadn’t intended to go a-huntin’ flutterbys right away, but was so impressed with the net, I felt compelled to head straight out to the garden. Sure enough, I immediately discovered a couple of pesky pieris rapae which have been destroying some of my plants. On the very first pass with my new net, I captured one of the pretty little bastages. I’m catching all of these fluttering little jerks, and setting out a nice mantis buffet.
