ITEMS: 2 large plastic soda bottles, scissors, and clear tape.
(this can be done with a single bottle but only if you want a smaller one that you’re manually playing with)
- 1st bottle: cut high in the flat surface so only the “cone funnel” comes off leaving the majority still connected to the base.
- 2nd bottle: cut low near the base.. same idea about needing smooth walls to the end.
- Flip the top-complete bottle into the ‘base’ bottle making a funnel with a long entry tube. Tape together.
- As soon as a lizard gets in there, flip it up (or scare em) they run into the funnel and into the chamber.
- Hell, if you can get some insects and cap of water in the holding chamber, they might go in by themselves like a fishtrap. I use those tubular frozen popsicle tubes to drop in the open funnel, fits perfectly.
Now I’m making a long term cage from some wire mesh I have… caught a couple baby lizards a few minutes ago.
