4 out of 5 stars It certainly is large enough   December 26, 2006

I wanted a butterfly net like the local park ranger uses when we go to help with the annual Monarch butterfly tagging project. This one seemed to be the closest I could find. It has an enormous diameter so I think even small kids will manage to scoop up something. The netting is a little shorter than others I have used but it looks like it will do the job. A drawback is that one has to supply a wooden dowel to make a long handle. Otherwise, it appears to be much more suitable and sturdy than the "toy" nets that are so common.


5 out of 5 stars 3 year old LOVES it   March 25, 2008

This was a gift for Grandbaby's third birthday. A very sturdy net and though she hasn't caught any "bubeyes" yet she has managed to net her 2 year old sister about a hundred times. I would say that the three year old rates it a 10 but the two year old is a bit more negative.
If you have a young hunter in the house we would vote yes for this product.



2 out of 5 stars Do I Really Need a Net without a Handle?   February 20, 2008

I had butterflies eating my garden to the point of having plant skeletons rather than lush greenery. Not wanting to foul the environment , I decided that catching the butterflies would be the appropriate solution. Thus, I ordered and promptly received this butterfly net.

Yes, it's clear from the picture that this net comes without a handle.

And, yes, I understand that the error was mine in expecting a butterfly net to have a handle.

So, I'll accept the responsibility for the handleless net. And for the 30 minutes it took me to find a handle that would more or less fit this net.

However. . .

my net had a rip in it that had obviously been repaired before mailing it out, making my net a second rather than first quality product.

Add to that the fact that the net was mailed in a flimsy cellophane covering, no box, no protection whatsoever for the net.

I am not a happy camper.

From the photo, I thought this would be a smaller butterflynet but it is big enough to catch other lightweight creatures. It is well constructed and will be put to good use! It was delivered promptly.

This net is Great! Not a cheapo...From the toy store. Should last a good long time. Ive been using it to catch insects for my chameleon to eat.You have to supply the handle...Which you can make any length you want. "Big Plus!" After I saw the first one, I bought another. Fantastic price for the quality! Hope this was helpful..Dave
