Ouch!
Looks like a cheap kid-sized tennis racket, but brother, this ain't for the kids. It's actually a fine way for adults to work on their upper-body strength and kill bugs at the same time. 18" long, with a 6" wide paddle lined with metal grid. A coil in the handle sends high voltage through the paddle when a button is pushed; hit a bug with it and the bug will bug you no more. But despite the manufacturer's claims that it's safe for people, Scott reports that flesh-paddle contact delivers a nasty shock, nasty enough to say "Keep this away from kids!" We've seen these in other catalogs for about twice the price, so buy it from us. Just be careful with it. 2 AA batteries, not included.

TickleMe Plant
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
So much friendlier than a Venus flytrap, the TickleMe Plant responds by folding its leaves when you tickle it, opening them when you stop. Semi-guaranteed to cheer up cranky shut-ins. You get a mini-pot, (10-20) seeds, and a peat pellet. Sprouts in a couple of days. (Tickle yourself in the meantime.)

Electronic Plant Monitoring
You can’t trust nature (it’s red in tooth and claw, remember?) but you can monitor its effect on plants with any of these electronic meters. The pH meter has a 7-1/2" long metal probe with a 1-5/8” x 3/4” ballistic meter on top that displays pH from 3 to 10. The moisture meter has a 7-1/2” long probe with a 1-1/2” x 3/4” ballistic meter, and measures 11” long OA, with a watering chart on the back of the package. No batteries: they work via chemical reaction to different metals (either that or it’s magic).

Hygromatic Froggie
Stick "Doctor Frog" (2-1/4" high, plus probes) into the soil of your houseplant and he'll chirp when the plant needs watering. (You know he's an authentic amphibian botanical MD because he's got a tiny little stethoscope around his neck.) Includes (2) button-cell batteries. He's also got a photocell so he won't croak in the dark, because nobody likes a plant that keeps asking for a drink of water when it should be sleeping.

Gold Pots
You could buy tiny clay pots and paint them gold to build a reputation for clever placecards and glittery favors, or you could let us do it for you. Our 1-3/4" high gilded pots and their separate saucers (pretend the pots have drain holes) are just waiting to make you famous.

I'd Like To Buy The Wasps A Coke"
CJ calls it very clever, and we agree. The Soda Bottle Wasp Trap" from Gadjit® Outdoors has a sleeve that fits into any size pop bottle, plus a 3-3/8" dia x 1-1/2" tall top that screws onto bottles-onto a 1" OD neck, the standard soda bottle opening-and invites stinging pests inside for a drink. Permanently. Use regular, non-diet pop-wasps, hornets and yellow-jackets are notoriously indifferent about their weight. Includes a few wasp-themed stickers to decorate the bottle. Please note: this trap will not attach properly to the new Coca-Cola low-profile bottles.

Pyromaniac's Delight
Start fires with this heavy iron tray. Roughly 9" x 4" x 2" deep, it has a loop handle on each end, a fire brick inside, and "lid" that is mostly open but with bands to retain the brick. The instructions on the back say to pour kerosene or charcoal lighter over the brick, place it under your logs and fire away. Hook a chain onto a handle to pull the tray out of the ashes for reuse. We suggest you stick to kerosene and restrict use to big outdoor bonfires etc. lest you burn the house down. You will need to furnish a pair of nuts and bolts to secure the lid to the base.
