Critter Catcher notes

• It is baited with plants, such as crops or mushrooms, placed inside.
• Swapping the bait for a different kind restarts that slot's catch timer.
• The catch depends on the biome and on the floor tile under the catcher; the bait type makes no difference.
• The catcher picks from a combined pool: critters that fit the biome plus critters that fit the ground tile beneath it.
• Every critter in that pool is equally likely.
• When neither the biome nor the tile matches anything, you get a Blackbug.
• The Undergrounds: Earthworm.
• The Clay Caves: Earthworm and Larvlet.
• The Forgotten Ruins: Pest Bug.
• Azeos' Wilderness: six possible critters (Citrus Pinion, Crimson Wing, Dream Messenger, Dusk Fairy, Earthworm, Leafhopper).
• The Sunken Sea: four possible critters (Crimson Wing, Ice Wind, Moon Pincher, Sun Pincher).
• The Desert of Beginnings: Little Death and Manyleg.
• Crystal ground: Gem Snail, Shadow Newt and Snoot Fly.
• Breaker's Reach, on normal or rocky ground: Sniffling.
• Breaker's Reach, on void ground: Void Larvlet.

What you get from salvaging Critter Catcher (Salvage and Repair Station)

Critter Catcher can be salvaged. Salvaging it gives the following items.

• Scrap Parts×1
• Plank×3-4
• Fiber×9-10
• Iron Bar×2-3

For each material, the amount is "amount used to craft × 0.49 (lower when durability is down, 0.3 at 0 durability) × the item's multiplier", and a fraction is the chance of one more (2.4 means 2, with a 40% chance of 3). The range is from 0 durability to full durability (items without durability always count as full). Scrap parts are a fixed number set by the item level. All items that can be salvaged are listed in salvaging.
