BugDorm-4S3030D Specimen Handling Cage

Formerly BugDorm-43030D (BD43030D)

Of same materials and dimensions of BugDorm-4S3030 insect cage, each BugDorm-4S3030D has sleeves on opposite panels for handling insects inside the cage.  Each sleeve has an elastic band for wrapping around the wrist to prevent insects from escaping.

Top and front panels are of clear plastic for observation.
