Home > Field Insect Nets
Field butterfly nets come in handy for more difficult species where either females fly in populations nowhere near a suburban garden or where host plants are so numerous that finding eggs and larvae becomes problematic.  Entomologists, lepidopterists, and naturalists utilize butterfly nets to collect live females and set them up to lay eggs on host plants.  Butterfly nets also aid in field identification.
