Editorial Review:
The Butterfly net is made of1/2" plain aluminum tubing on a 15" diameter hoop. It has a 1" diamond-embossed aluminum handle 6" long which you can easily attach a 1" unvarnished handle, up to 60" long, available in most hardware stores. The Net is 1/16" mesh - 22" deep Made in USA




I was tired of buying those $1-$5 nets at the stores and they break in like a week or two. My son is 6 and is really into bugs, so we go through a ton of bug nets. This one is great - it's huge - you really could catch a small animal in it and it is sturdy.
I'm so glad I bought it - it's great quality and a great price! I'm so done with buying the cheap plastic ones. This one is metal - kinda reminds me of a net you use at the pool to skim the water.
All his friends and neighbors love it too!




If you have a young hunter in the house we would vote yes for this product.




Yes, it's clear from the picture that this net comes without a handle.
And, yes, I understand that the error was mine in expecting a butterfly net to have a handle.
So, I'll accept the responsibility for the handleless net. And for the 30 minutes it took me to find a handle that would more or less fit this net.
However. . .
my net had a rip in it that had obviously been repaired before mailing it out, making my net a second rather than first quality product.
Add to that the fact that the net was mailed in a flimsy cellophane covering, no box, no protection whatsoever for the net.
I am not a happy camper.

Great net - sturdy - huge!
The other reviews are correct, you do need to get your own handle, but we found one that worked great.

3 year old LOVES it
This was a gift for Grandbaby's third birthday. A very sturdy net and though she hasn't caught any "bubeyes" yet she has managed to net her 2 year old sister about a hundred times. I would say that the three year old rates it a 10 but the two year old is a bit more negative.

Do I Really Need a Net without a Handle?
I had butterflies eating my garden to the point of having plant skeletons rather than lush greenery. Not wanting to foul the environment , I decided that catching the butterflies would be the appropriate solution. Thus, I ordered and promptly received this butterfly net.

butterfly net
The butterfly net is nice. It is larger than I expected and the larger the better. The handle is long and of a practical size. I use it for catching hummingbirds trapped in my garage, so I can free them. The cost was very reasonable, and delivery was very prompt. I really like it. 2007-10-25




Exellent Buy
This net is Great! Not a cheapo...From the toy store. Should last a good long time. Ive been using it to catch insects for my chameleon to eat.You have to supply the handle...Which you can make any length you want. "Big Plus!" After I saw the first one, I bought another. Fantastic price for the quality! Hope this was helpful..Dave 2007-10-01
