620 or so CD cases were painted with Tanglefoot insect trapping glue in the "Dirt lab" at the University of Tasmania Geography School. These sticky traps are easily transportable and capture insects landing on the tree. Robert Junker is busy melting holes in the CD cases with a soldering iron. These holes are used to nail the trap into different locations in the treetops.

The hanging traps have a central plastic intercept barrier which insects fly into and then fall into a funnel beneath. These three pieces of plastic unfold and are attached to a cut off soda bottle to form a trap.

Pulling fishing line off of a reel efficiently can involve some rather bizarre arm movements.

Phillip Grosse missing a branch with the longbow on Tree 16. We spend 8 hours and failed to rig this monster. The fishing line got accidentally stuck around a rubber chair tip used to keep it from looping. Notice the cracking sound as the arrow slams into the branch, and take note the hand gesture expressing frustration in this wonderful clip.
"You caught that rubber front."
