Gather your supplies. Before setting out to capture a tadpole, you'll want to have certain supplies ready. You can find most necessary supplies around your house. If you can't locate certain supplies, you can purchase them at a local supermarket or drug store.[1]
You'll need a fine or mesh net to scoop the tadpoles out of the water. You can also use a mason jar, if you cannot find a net, but a net will give you better control.
You should have something to place to tadpoles in after they are caught. You should immediately place them in a container of clean, chlorine free water. Consider bringing a bucket of water with you when you go to catch tadpoles. Some of the water you caught the tadpoles in may slip into the container, so do not full it up completely.
You may want to wear gloves when catching tadpoles. Depending on the area where you're catching tadpoles, boots may also be helpful. Wear boots if you're catching tadpoles in a muddy area.

Eggs and tadpoles can be kept in a large, flat pan, fish bowl, aquarium, or a large glass jar. Set up their new home ahead of time. Use water from the pond where you collect the eggs or larvae to give them a head start. Chlorinated tap water destroys bacteria and algae and it can harm or kill amphibian eggs and larvae.
