Insect catching tool

摘要

A tool for catching, holding, transporting and releasing insects provides two elongate crossing body elements pivotally interconnected in their medial crossing portions with looped rearward handles and similar forward opposed jaws each carrying end portions of a flexibly resilient pad extending between the jaws to form a pocket when the jaws are closed. The resilient pad is releasably interconnected to the jaws so that it may be replaced. An elastic band extends between the tool body elements forwardly of their pivotal joinder to releasably maintain the jaws in closed mode.
