Questions, answered

What age is it for?

Ages 3 and up. The one-thumb slider is easy for preschoolers; keep an adult nearby outside.

Will it hurt the bugs?

The jaws close into a little box rather than squeezing. Close them gently, take a look and let the bug go where you found it.

Does it need batteries?

No. It works with a simple push slider: no batteries or charging.

How strong is the magnifier?

The viewing window magnifies about 6 times, enough to see legs, wings and spots clearly.
