Catch and Release #2

As promised, here is a photo of my bug catcher. I got it at Target. It's a pretty weak vacuum (it runs on AA batteries).





And here is the nasty-ass cave cricket (or camel cricket or "crazy jumper" as my Mom used to say). Clunky says they are blind and they jump at your eyes so they can steal your sight. I'm not sure if that has been scientifically proven.
