Bugcatchers

There are bugs aplenty at Clybucca, especially on still nights. To cope with the nighttime bug influx I bought an electrical bugcatcher. It's main purpose is to kill mosquitoes but it also catches all manner of other bugs. The bugcatcher has a fluorescent light, a fan and a tray of water. The bugs are attracted to the light and pushed into the water by the fan and then they drown. Spiders catch some of the bugs in their webs and the frogs think the bugcatcher is an easy meal ticket. They sit next to it and eat dinner at their leisure.
