The Catch Kit combines the Catch Cap funnel with a spare 16 mm water tube and 3 cotton balls. Both Scouts already include a tube, so choose the Catch Cap alone if you do not need spares. Prepare the water tube with cotton, fit the funnel in a port, close any other port and swap the funnel for a Port Plug after the queen enters.
The kit is $8 standalone or $4 with Scout V1 or V2.
