An insect trap includes a combination of one or more components used to classify the insect according to a genus and species. In one embodiment, an apparatus can include an entry aperture configured to lead one or more insects to an imaging chamber within the apparatus. A device may include a door on a side surface of the apparatus, wherein a rear surface of the door is positioned within the imaging chamber in a closed position, and wherein the rear surface of the door comprises a removable/replaceable adhesive material or surface configured to trap one or more insects thereon. A device may include at least one imaging sensor positioned opposite the rear surface of the door configured to capture images of the one or more insects adhering to the adhesive material or surface.

A trap for immobilizing, killing, or containing arthropods comprises a housing having walls and at least one opening, where the walls define an interior space; and a light source comprising a directional light source mounted in the interior space. The light source is constructed to emit light at one or more wavelengths ranging from 350 to 500 nm. The light source is positioned so that a majority of the light emitted from the light source is directed at one or more surfaces in the interior space. The trap also comprises a suppression element mounted in the interior space and constructed to immobilize, kill, or contain arthropods.

The disclosure discloses an outdoor viscous mosquito killing lamp, including a lamp body including a housing within which is disposed a lighting lamp, wherein a viscous trap chamber and a viscous trap plate are provided on the housing, and a side wall of the viscous trap chamber is provided with a first through hole configured for passage of flying insects; the side wall of the viscous trap chamber is further provided with a draw opening through which the viscous trap plate is pushed into or pulled out of the viscous trap chamber; a first viscous sticker is provided on the viscous trap plate. The outdoor mosquito eradication lamp is both safe and environmentally friendly and is convenient to be cleaned up.

An insect monitoring system for use in agricultural fields is provided. The monitoring system has a chemical lure to attract insects to the monitoring system, and an adhesive material on which insects drawn to the lure can be trapped for later evaluation. The monitoring system also has a three-piece canopy made of two opposing sides and a cover. The parallel sides are roughly triangular and the cover sits above, and is attached to, the sides. The adhesive trap is held vertically between the two opposing sides of the canopy. The lure is held horizontally above the adhesive trap by being inserted through slits in the cover. The canopy can be assembled from a flat sheet of a prepatterned rigid material.

An insect capture device is used to monitor, capture, and/or kill insects. The device has a raised portion to create a gap between a surface and the device to entice insects to pass under. At the raised portion, a glue board includes an adhesive facing the surface. As the insect passes under the raised portion, the insect can unknowingly become attached to the adhesive portion and stuck thereto. To aid in installing the glue board, one or more sections of the glue board can be free of adhesive to connect or fit to a part of the device to hold the glue board in place, while also allowing for easy removal to replace the glue board with a new one, free of captured insects.
