This must be the gadget of the year…

Deal with your Arachnophobia at arms length with the Spider Catcher. As fun
as it can be to squash spiders and other insects, this environmentally-friendly
approach will do a better job of it and give you that smug "wouldn’t hurt a fly"
attitude to boot.

Just imagine the feeling of a spider or moth skittering around on the palm of
your closed hand, or the disgusting death-smear left on the wall from an
outright assault with a rolled up newspaper. This nifty little gadget eliminates
both of those things. The Spider Catcher is basically a long pole with a handle
and spiny bristles at the end. Pull the trigger and the bristles open, release
the trigger and the bristles close allowing you to capture any wee beasties in
your range without damaging them (though we can’t be certain that it won’t
create any long-lasting psychological damage). Take the critter outside and you
can release your prey without having to touch it with your hands.
