The Amazing Bug Trap looks at how trial-and-error experimentation can help solve a problem. Mr Harris is an avid vegetable gardner who is proud of his prize-winning cabbages. One day, he finds holes in the cabbages, made by earwigs. His neighbours Maria and Tom build a bug trap to catch the earwigs. Mr Harris tries the trap but it doesn’t work. Maria and Tom revise their trap by adding a light stick to attract the earwigs. My Harris tries the improved trap and it works. In the end, all the neighbours want one of Maria and Tom’s bug traps for their gardens.
