New source for bioquip-like nets…

Thank you to Bryan Pfeiffer for finding them.
Some additional details on these nets:
-
They’re basically identical to BioQuip’s standard insect nets with an 18” “aerial net bag” (as BioQuip used to call them). There’s no 15” net ring option.
-
If you order one of these nets, be sure to order the “fine mesh” bag — NOT the “grid mesh.” They come in black or white.
My suggestion is that you order the “18” Lepidoptera Net Kit” (which comes with either a black or white fine mesh net bag). But note that the handle length on that kit model is only 29.” So you’ll probably also want to order a 24-inch extension pole. The package will cost $33 before shipping ($24 for the net kit and $9 for the extension pole).
