Katcha False Widow Spider Catcher - 3 Piece Handle

Love it! Especially great for catching the big ones!!!

We've had three of an older version of these catchers for many years and been very happy with them, dotted around the house in case of a spider emergency! They've caught many insects over the years (and even a small mouse that the cat brought in!). One broke recently when the handle got stepped on, so we thought we'd order the same thing again. The new one actually feels slightly better quality, the catcher is the same and has plenty of room inside it, but the handle feels stronger. It's also great to be able to order a longer handle! It's best to close the door gently to make sure the spider doesn't get trapped by it. We'd recommend this product.

Easy to use but you do need to be careful with it if using it sideways on wall and turn it as the slide has a tendency of catching legs and sometimes even squashing the bug - which defeats the whole idea of being able to remove something from your home without killing it. Fairly stable but end of rod is not fixed into catching pot, so again you have to be careful whilst using it. Has helped me out with small - medium spiders this autumn & I am personally terrified of spiders. Would recommend.

Superb item for catching spiders and allows you to dispose of them humanely. Very easy to use.

It works perfectly!

To be completely honest, the way I would usually advocate getting rid of a spider would be burning the entire house down, but failing this I would want something around three times the length of this device. The other day, after a particularly harrowing incident with a spider the size of small tarantula, I came online to try and find a device to help. I ordered this device but have been disappointed with what has arrived, which is a small, short and flimsy green stick which looks like a cat toy. It also requires you twist the device so it closes (while holding said humongous spider and risking dropping it??) I have yet to use it, hence why I've given it three stars as is may work well. But to be quite honest, I wouldn't want to be getting that close to the thing in the first place so it might suffice for my flatmate to use when bailing me out (again)... it's not much better than a cup and a postcard for the arachnophobics among us.

This item catches spiders on walls. It DOES NOT catch spiders on ceiling. I tried. Spider fell out. It fell down just centimetres from my face. I felt its breath It was so close. When it landed next to my feet I then saw its teeth and tattoo's, I'm not exaggerating before it casually strolled beneath my bed to plot my death. Only reason I'm still alive is I haven't actually slept in my bed since. Buying this product also cost me an extra £6 to buy throat lozenges due to the extended blood curdling scream I released as spider fell out of the trap. Also need to plan for therapy after neighbours 3 doors down knocked on door to check I wasn't being murdered, and her young children laughed at me for crying at a little spider. I explained it was big enough to move furniture they were not convinced. Bad children but very very bad product.

Great spider/insect catcher. We’d had our last one for years & years but eventually the slider broke. This one is even better with a longer handle which means you don’t have to get too close to the spider etc. Easy to use and release. Thoroughly recommend.

Bin begeistert!Ist schon mein zweiter, hat ca.4Jahre gehalten. Deshalb. mußte ein neuer her.

Paraît effectivement assez peu solide mais par contre très pratique pour attraper et relâcher sans tuer bestioles rampantes ou volantes !!

Reste fragile malgré tout

Was delivered without the small, see-through (?) part to attach the long handle to the plastic 'box'. So unable to attach handle. Better to buy a more expensive version with better handle. The system is actually very practical - also for catching flies on window.

Naja, sehr minimalistisch....
