## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this big enough to catch a cicada?**
A: I think it would be a little tight to catch a cicada without risking harming the cicada. It is a very cool toy, though, and my kids really are enjoying it. So are all our little and not so little friends who come to play at our house. Hope this helps.

**Q: Does the light scare the bug away?**
A: Not from my experience.  I've loved this product because I'm scared of bugs.  My grandson loves this product because he examines the bugs after catching them and then lets them go outdoors.  The light doesn't seem to have any affect on the bug at all.

**Q: Does this help catch and release spiders form the house?**
A: Catching them is easy. Releasing isn’t as easy. You open the hatch and kinda smack it out. I wish it had a way to reverse the fan and blow them out.

**Q: Is it waterproof?**
A: The Bug Vacuum is fine to be used out in the rain. You would want to avoid full submersion so that water is not getting into the area with the motor or on the handle of the gun where the batteries are.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good bug catcher
*by B***R on August 5, 2025*

Works very well although the vacuum could be a bit stronger. Highly recommended.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Has what all of the adult bug vacuums REALLY need.
*by Z***L on April 30, 2024*

Now, I'm an adult and I got this for me, lol. Because I keep seeing regular cordless handheld vacuums that they will try and call a "Bug Vacuum." But they are really just regular handheld vacuums!! For real! They don't even TRY and make them any different either. I mean heck, I wish I had the funds to manufacture a REAL bona fide bug vacuum, because there still really isn't one... Well, there's the "BugZooka," lol. But that technically isn't really a vacuum. The truth is, this here Nature Bound Bug Catching Toy is one of the only actual bug vacuums that DO exist. The only other one that I saw was another kid's bug catcher vacuum, except it was in the shape of an anteater I believe.Anyway, TO ME, what makes this a bona fide bug catcher vacuum is the suction tube. Because it has an actual chamber for the bugs, AND you can close it off by turning the magnifying glass piece. And so, I decided to get this bug vacuum JUST for that piece. Well, I'm not going to delve into what I've done with it, but I will say that it has held up well so far for what I've been using it for, lol.And by the way, the vacuum part of this bug catcher vacuum takes 4 AA batteries that are not included. However, once you have put the batteries in and you've turned the vacuum on to try it out, you might find that it's not really sucking at all. Well, I initially had this problem, but I eventually figured out what was wrong. You know the little magnifying glass piece on the vacuum tube that you turn to trap the bugs in there? The reason there was almost no power behind the suction was because it was closed... 😄😆🤣 Hey, it happens to the best of us, lol. But anyway, while this bug catcher vacuum doesn't have the greatest suction, it DOES have some.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fun. Good enough to do its job.
*by T***D on January 17, 2022*

Got this because we tend to get stink bugs and ladybugs in our house and this would be an easier way to get rid of them. Plus my daughter can help. She's gotten a kick out of this. No ladybugs yet, just three stink bugs. The suction isn't strong, but it's enough to pull the bug in as long as put the tip up close to it. In all three cases, the bug got caught in the inner door of the vacuum and never got inside the middle, but that was enough to give me time to get rid of it outside. This is good enough to get rid of a bug easier than using paper cups or a piece of paper and it doesn't smash them.
