My Critter Catcher Spider & Insect Catcher
Does My Critter Catcher really work?
YES! My Critter Catcher is a real product that picks up all types of insects and other critters, without harming them. Check out My Critter Catcher in action in the video above!
How does My Critter Catcher work?
To pick up insects simply do the following: Squeeze the handle so the bristles open, position the open bristles over the insect, and release the handle so the bristles close. To release the insect outside, just squeeze the handle again so the bristles re-open. It's that easy.
Why use My Critter Catcher?
My Critter Catcher protects your home from critters without leaving any mess, using harmful chemicals, or requiring expensive batteries. Plus it doesn't even kill the bugs.
My Critter Catcher's applications are endless. It can be used to capture Tarantulas and all small spiders, scorpions, wasps, bees, stink bugs, cicadas, grasshoppers, butterflies, roaches, water beetles, etc.
My Critter Catcher is about 25.5 inches long. The average arm length is 25.5 inches, so you can estimate your body being about 4 feet from the critter that you want to pick up.

For a slow moving spider I'd imagine this would be a great tool. For wolf spiders it's going to be more like a game. None of the three I've caught so far have just sat there and taken it. They run. Quickly. The first two I caught after three attempts. The third one was one of the large guys, and a bit sassier than the first two. On the fifth try I Finally got it; however, it did lose a leg in the ordeal. Hopefully it will molt again, which will result in a new leg for the little fella. All three spiders survived and scurried off after I released them. The first one I had to flick out of the device, but the other two plopped right out.
I think I'll stick to the Tupperware container and my spider catching paper for the ones that have babies, though I think the babies Might actually stay caught within the bristles. I'll have to try it outside sometime - don't want to risk all those little guys loose in the house. My husband would sleep with one eye open until I was able to account for each little monstrosity; or we'd just have to move. (see 20200823 update)
20170929: I found one place I was unable to use the Critter Catcher. I walked into the restroom, gazed upon the porcelain throne and was stumped. Let me tell y'all about a wolf spider's silly side. They flatten themselves against surfaces in an effort to hide; however, I have bad news for them - I see you! It's difficult to miss those Long legs, and that large body, hanging out on a white wall. Sorry, guys, you're not sneaky. I'd compare it to an elephant hiding behind a human.
In any event, I'm still looking for this particular prankster. He was sitting under the lip of the rim of the commode, just chillin'. I thought and thought about how to catch and release, but I simply wasn't willing to dunk My Critter Catcher. I believe I've mentioned somewhere that while I'm not terrified of these creatures, I'm not entirely keen on snuggling with them, and Especially not in such an intimate setting. With regret, I hit the handle and I kid you not, this guy Surfed the Wave to the other side of the bowl, flipped me the bird, and disappeared. I haven't seen it since, and I only know it did not go down the hole. I'll go on record to state that there is now a process of lifting lids, swiping My Critter Catcher between the tank and seat, as well as the back of the tank before I'll consider taking care of business.
20190816: 2 years after the Huntsman spider's wily antics I'm still using this device. We have a deal in our household - I catch the spiders, we don't burn down the house. He dispatches the roaches, we don't burn down the house. Peace and harmony is maintained. I did have to purchase a new broom when I couldn't make it to him to take out one particularly large roach - it was blocking me from getting to the bedroom where my hero slumbered, utterly unaware of my plight. That evil entity zigged when I zigged and zagged when I zagged, it was stalking me! Out of desperation I jumped over the couch and scrambled to the broom before that gruesome pest could get me. Once I was armed, he knew it was on and tried to run but oh no, emboldened by my acquisition of a weapon I was like a wild Amazonian ready for blood (or ooze). A quick jab into the wall and seven smacks later the broom broke (some may think it was overkill but noooo, it was Still alive because that's how roaches are - invulnerable). Mustering my courage, and choking back bile, I harpooned that repulsive demon. I then covered it with a tupperware container and left a note for my husband, along with the aftermath so all could marvel at the brave battle I endured.
I digress, My Critter Catcher is Fantastic and you won't be disappointed. It helps with reaching otherwise unreachable areas that arachnids like to taunt us from. Ours are frisky and very much enjoy tormenting my husband in the shower (buwahaha - don't tell him I laughed or he'll tell you about the time I pickled a roach in the shower with a gallon of vinegar. It . . . touched my hand - gives me shivers to this day!).
20200823: I'm pleased to discover my review has helped many people! I came to update - My Critter Catcher has racked up nearly 100 catches now and is still going strong. The bristles are beginning to widen a bit but I'm suspecting a hot water soak will get those back into shape - I just don't have a pot I'm willing to sacrifice (gross!) so I'm thinking on alternate solutions (maybe a bucket in which I pour the hot water).
I Have captured wolfies with the babies and the babies stayed within the bristles, much to my husband's relief. Y'all should have heard That conversation, "No baby, don't do it, don't, don't, dontdontdontdont, babyyyy!" This is a Firefighter we're talking about, y'all - burning building falling all around him is No problem, but you stick 8 legs in front of him and he's taking the flight option. To be fair, I have broken 2 brooms whilst killing roaches since purchasing My Critter Catcher. I have since purchased the Bug-A-Salt and though it may take 7 shots, salt ammo is less expensive than a new broom. And Much Much more fun.
Huntsman spiders remain a difficult catch due to their expert level of hiding. They practically suction to the wall and almost always in the corner between the door frame and wall. I found a Second one in our toilet - never again shall I do my business in the dark. Florida is no joke! I was able to get him out with My Critter Catcher and I felt better about that than flushing him. I had one Huntsman get so angry I could feel the vibration from its temper tantrum through the handle - he was a big boy. A big furious boy.
20220712: Holy cow, I've had this thing for 6 years! I've caught hundreds of spiders, and released them into the wild (okay, our yard). Some of the bristles are starting to follow their own path, but for the most part the contraption is holding together well. I Have scooped up wolf spiders, with babies on their backs. The babies, so far as I could tell, did stay with their mom as I escorted them outside. It's a risk, for sure.
For anyone still on the fence about this product - do it! Even my husband had been emboldened after all these years to use this device, though he has eyeballed the Bug-A-Salt a few times, to which I have shot a warning glance. Remember, folks, spiders kill roaches and that makes spiders valuable and precious.
It was warm, there was a bundle of delicious food wrapped and stored within my nest.
My feet, all eight of them, felt the vibrations of sound throughout the day and into the night until the silence of darkness settled and I felt free to roam, always to return to my home at the first hint of light.
It was there that I slept deeply except during the several daily rituals of the giant who insisted upon staring at me to be sure that I stayed in one place.
The poor thing appeared to have lost some legs, six of them, probably in the last molt.
Now the giant had only two.
She seemed to be a gentle giant who meant me no harm.
Everything was fine, we coexisted well until I made that huge mistake:
I gave in to an urge to travel.
I became a vagabond in search of adventure.
My wanderlust caused the giant to become unnecessarily afraid.
Probably because she had heard rumors from other giants who weren't so kind.
They told her of my painful bites which
I SWEAR I never do unless someone or something tries to harm me.
I am shy.
It makes me sad to be so misunderstood.
The giant's thoughts were easy to read.
She was more worried about her dog than about herself, so I guess I can understand what happened next.
There I was, on my carefree adventure, having traveled all the way across the ceiling to the edge of another wall.
I'd just stopped to rest, it was then that the giant approached to look at me apologetically, timidly.
Then, I was suddenly encapsulated, cradled by a soft, comforting whiteness.
Transported in time and space.
It was the weirdest feeling I have ever experienced.
Strangely surreal yet not bad.
I floated through space, flew without effort until I found myself outside amongst the trees.
The encapsulating whiteness was gone and I was in a new world full of possibilities and new sources of food.
It must have been a dream. A good dream.
My life is better because of that dream which showed me that there are humans who are my friends and who will not hurt me just because they can, because I am small, or
merely because I exist.
I wouldn't mind having that dream again someday.
One day in the future, when my spiderlings are still too small to go out into the world, I will tell them this story as I tuck them into their tiny beds to sleep and dream the best of dreams.
Top reviews from other countries
I am terrified of spiders, but don't kill them so it would take me SO long to work up the courage to get a cup, get a piece of paper, trap the spider and let it outside.. like I would want to cry
Now I just use this stick, I don't have to get anywhere close to the spider and I can relocate it with ease.
The bristles don't hurt the bugs, including bees or wasps that may get inside, and they eject them outdoors where they belong
I can't recommend this enough
