The worst thing about this time of year is the bugs. I found what can only be described as an an electrified tennis racket that I've been using to deal with them. (and by deal I mean make suffer, and then explode.) However, this Mushi Catcher looks like it might also do the trick: it sucks the bug up into bug heaven (by which I mean, bug heaven for you) after which you can feed the carcasses to your bird or unloved ones. Made of ABS plastic the Mushi catcher from Century measures 617mm x123mm, weighs 310g and is available in Japan for approximately 2,980 Yen (£13). [GT]

So am I the only sad one who rebels against the natural human blood lust and hoovers the buggers up in a specially designed tube thing, bungs the lid on then skips out to sprinkle them (carefully) as far away from the house so they can live happy little lives forever more?
