Ok, I really couldn't figure out what forum to put this in, so we will try it here.
Anyway. I was looking at the battery operated bug collecting vacuum (non-killing).
The Bioquip unit is sweet, but hundreds of dollars.
The ones for kids and the ones for people afraid of the bugs in their house don't review well in terms of breaking and suction power.
But I have not used any of them.
I would consider a DIY project, but that in turn would still involve buying a vacuum. I like the look of the Dewalt portable shop vac, that runs on 120V or Dewalt batteries (as I have those anyway). But that baby is $100. Kind of hard to justify.
Bioquip also has a unit that seems to be a modified Black and Decker hand held.
Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone had used any of them?

By the time you get the business end of the baster close enough to the fly, it will fly away. This is often also true when you use a much more powerful vacuum cleaner device on individual flies outside of the cage. But it's so easy to do that you might want to give it a try! Show us a video of the laughing flies!
