This isn't exactly a home repair question, but I couldn't think of where else to ask.
I need a telescoping rod/pole/stick I can carry with me to poke in openings/holes/etc. to flush out small critters. Ideally it will extend to about 4-5 feet, collapse to about 8-12 inches, and be made of aluminum or something light. It doesn't have to be very strong and doesn't have to lock in the extended position. I envision something about 3/8" - 1/2" diameter. Hopefully it won't cost more than about $20.
Telescoping paint roller poles and walking sticks are too long collapsed and heavier than required.
I know I've seen something like this before, but I've racked my brain for two days and can't remember where.
