Cage for housing the flies. The side sleeve is used when feeding or catching the flies. When transferring the flies from one cage to another the top opening is untied and a clean cage is inverted over the old one. A light is placed over the top cage and the flies will at once fly into the clean cage. When they have all been captured the gauze can be drawn together and tied.
