Abstract: A preferred tool for killing insects and lifting small objects has a tool, an upper handle part (10); a lower handle part (12), a tool extension base (15); attached to a tool extension (14); by some form of hinge (16). A control rod (11) attaches, at one end, to the tool extension and to a positioner (13) on the other. The control rod (11) is positioned within the handle parts (10 and 12). A pad (45) with adhesive faced sheets (48) is attachable to the tool head formed by the tool extension base and extensions. In other models, the handle (51 and 65) is formed of a single part.
