Micro Travel Bugs

[GPS-John]

Is it possible to buy Travel Bugs that are small enough to fit into micro caches ?. I have thought about cutting down a standard bug but that seems a bit pointless if small bugs are available. I have searched UK suppliers but have not found any yet.

Actual Travel Bugs? No, I don't think so.

 

The tags are held to a standard size/shape/design to help with in keeping them recognizable to all as a Travel Bug.

There are some that send out travelers w/o a tag (recording the number itself on the hitchhiker), but most always they run into some trouble as being recognized for what they are intended to be -- a Travel Bug.

 

A few "micro" geocoins are in existence and available.

Probably best to go with a micro geocoin, but keep in mind tiny travelers are easily lost.

I've seen several TB tags "rolled" so that they would fit in film canisters and the like.

One of the first trackables I found was a travel ingot geocoin. It fit perfect in a micro container. Being the first to find it after being placed, was worried about placing it somewhere and it being taken, for I have visited caches that supposedly had trackables, but they were not present. This one definately is desirable, but I just checked and as of the 6th is still in play.
