Bug Vacuum

bugvacuum.jpg

When it comes to bugs, we girls at Popgadget will go to any length to get rid of those nasty critters, finding ways both humane and cruel. This version of the Bug Vacuum has a few "improvements" on previously blogged versions. Like other bug suckers, this vacuum inhales your creepy crawlie into a long-nozzled chamber, but instead of killing or simply containing the bug, this vacuum has a built-in magnifier so you can admire your most recent catch! It also adapts for different-sized bugs, has three suction settings, two nozzles, and two see-through chambers. It's an awful lot of kit if you just want to get a bug out of your house, but if you have kids it's also a great way to clean up and provide an educational experience at the same time.

I have a different version of the same brand name. It has NO sucking power at all. You basically are left to SCOOP the bug up. Lame. Worst gift I ever got. Worst invention ever made.
