Field nets are the basic tool for studying insect diversity outdoors. Students sweep the net through grass and low plants, or swing it to catch flying insects, then transfer what they catch to viewing boxes or collecting jars for identification, counting and release. A collapsible handle is the practical feature here: shortened, the net fits in a school bag or kit box for field trips; extended to its full 30 in, it gives more reach into vegetation and over water margins.
For a class survey, give each group one net and a viewing box, agree a fixed number of sweeps per habitat so results can be compared, and empty the net carefully by turning the bag over into a container. Shake out debris and let the net dry after use. As an economical piece of biology teaching equipment in India, it lets a school equip a whole class for insect-sampling practicals.
ScienceLab, the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, is the OEM of this economy-model net and makes it at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools, colleges, nature education centres and dealers in India and international markets buy it factory-direct rather than through a trader.
Nets can be combined with viewing and mounting items in one consignment, and repeat orders or questions about spares are handled by the manufacturer itself — ask us. See the ScienceLab profile page for company details.
