» SPIDER SQUARE
"Spiders are horrible!" Unfortunately these words are heard all too often but anyone who has observed the
fascinating life of Spiders will soon change their mind. This wooden frame attracts Spiders which spin circular
webs. To make observation easier, the frame can be placed in a typical Spider habitat. The spiders will adopt
the frame of their own accord and do not need to be placed in it. The rectangular frame contains a weatherproof
corner, called a retreat, where the Spider is also protected from its enemies. To see
your Spider in action, just place a fly in the web. The movement alerts the spider to
the presence of prey by means of a signalling thread. The Spider lays this signalling
thread in such a way that it leads directly to the retreat.

hideaway or winter home. Up to 70 species have been found. You can remove this observation slab as often as
you want safely, for example, without disrupting the ants' young and the colony's
passageways.

» INSECT-SNAPY
"Protect and conserve instead of killing and destroying" is the idea behind this device.
Its main advantage is its ease of operation: The floor of the Snapy is drawn back and
the tool placed over the Insect. The floor is then carefully pushed forward.
The Insect is released outside by drawing the floor back again.

» HUMANE SPIDER AND INSECT CATCHER
The SCHWEGLER Humane Catcher has been developed according to the ecological idea of "protect and
conserve" instead of "kill and destroy". With this Humane Spider and Insect Catcher insects and even larger
spiders can be caught easily and quickly. The transparent material enables the animals to be observed
thoroughly before they are released.
