Can you describe the mesh size? Is it a plastic strainer or one of
the kind with window screen type material? More like a colander, perhaps?
I'd like to get some of these beetles, but I don't have a real good idea
of their size. My last acquaintance with them was in a bowl of porridge
one early morning when I was a little kid. I now realize how dazed an
adult can be before the first cup of coffee....
