Rarely seen on the market, the S-Plus 3 insect aspirator/pooter is designed for small insects and comes with a very thin Ø3mm pick-up straw.
The S-Plus 3 aspirator has a major advantage in using the BugDorm-5061 Ventilated Vial as the collection chamber. This chamber can be easily removed, closed, and replaced, allowing for quick storage of collected insects and a seamless transition to a new vial for the next collection. This eliminates the need for complicated procedures when transferring insects on-site, and the ventilated vial can also keep the captured insect alive. The Ø3mm insect pick-up straw can be trimmed or replaced as needed, providing convenience and cost-effectiveness. The front vial cap features a check valve to prevent insects from escaping, while the rear vial cap has a foam filter to prevent the operator from inhaling foreign objects.
For easy operation and hygiene, the S-Plus 3 insect aspirator can be used with our Palm-sized Vacuum Cleaner and transferred into a mechanical one. Simply remove the check valve, foam filter, and silicone tube from the S-Plus 3 aspirator and connect the aspirator body to the vacuum cleaner.
