nihongo|"Bondage Fairies"|インセクト・ハンター|Insect Hunter is a famous hentai manga about fairy fetish. It was originally a comic series in "Lemon Kids" magazine (July 1990—April 1991) where it was titled "Insect Hunter". The manga is drawn by Teruo Kakuta (pen name "Kondom"). The series was later published in the United States with translated English text.The original series is about two forest fairies] Pfil (pronounced as either p'fill, or "fill", like the male name Phil; she once corrected another fairy for calling her "piffle") and Pamila, who work as hunters protecting the forest, though not all of the series feature them as main characters. Pfil is more naïve and innocent in appearance, while Pamila is more sexually mature and open, although both frequently and easily engage in all sorts of sexual acts. The sexual content varies from masturbation, to lesbian sex, to fetishism, to bondage, to bestiality (with birds, animals and insects). The stories often involve the two fairies saving the forest whilst engaging in various sexual acts.

The comics often include small educational sections titled "Pfil’s educational comics corner", with topics ranging from insect behavior to human anatomy.
