Abstract
An insect capturing device including a head having bristles which are arranged in concentric rings. A handle has a trigger which allows a user to move the bristles between a diverged position and a converged position in which an insect is entrapped without being injured. The device may then be carried outdoors and the bristles again moved to the diverged position so that the insect is released harmlessly.
