Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide an insect trap for trapping insects, the insect trap comprising one or more serviceable parts, the insect trap being movable between a first configuration for trapping insects, and a second configuration for servicing of the one or more serviceable parts. The insect trap is arranged so that the position of the one or more serviceable parts in the first configuration differs from the position of the one or more serviceable parts in the second configuration.

An apparatus includes a housing having an aperture extending through a wall of the housing, a carbon dioxide delivery device coupled to the housing through the aperture, a non-biological skin substitute substrate, and a heater coupled to the substrate.

A water movement system and method configured to eradicate and/or control mosquito or insect populations that lay eggs in treated, stagnant water environments. The system is comprised of a water pump configured to function in cooperation with an underwater insect attractant device. The insect attractant device is suitably constructed to generate carbon dioxide for attracting insects to a water extermination zone or trap. In one embodiment, the underwater insect attractant device contains organisms such as mycelia for generating the carbon dioxide. Insects are attracted by the carbon dioxide generation device to reproduce in the water extermination zone, using the treated water to lay eggs, and grow larvae and pupae for the subject insects. A solar-powered water pump device is configured to direct the flow of water from the water extermination zone toward filters of the water pump device to trap and kill insect progeny including eggs, larvae, and pupae.

It is important to trap and identify mosquitos to ensure the safety of the population where mosquitos gather. The classification of a type of mosquito is typically accomplished by a unique wingbeat signature that is characteristic of different types of mosquitos. One of the goals of the trap is to quickly identify the mosquito and then quickly release the mosquito. This application will allow the user to obtain an approximate population so that the appropriate type and amount of insecticide can be applied to control the population to insure the health of the human and animal population while at the same time minimizing danger to the environment or surrounding ecosystem.

A biodegradable insect trap is provided which includes a substrate having a first surface, an adhesive applied over at least a portion of the substrate first surface, and an insect attractant. The substrate may be made up of either: (1) a polymeric web is in turn made up of at least 50 weight percent polyhydroxyalkanoates or (2) a paperboard web having a coating layer applied over a least a portion of the paperboard web, wherein the coating layer is made up of at least 50 weight percent polyhydroxyalkanoates. According to the present disclosure, the adhesive is also made up of at least 50 weight percent polyhydroxyalkanoates.

Disclosed is an insect trap, which includes a trap assembly and a trapping box provided with an opening in the upper end thereof, wherein a killing component is arranged in the trapping box; the trapping box is arranged below the trap assembly, and the bottom of the trapping box is connected to the trap assembly; and a space for insects to pass through is maintained between the trap assembly and the upper edge of the trapping box. The insect trap can lure insects moving around the insect trap into the trapping box, and can effectively prevent insects from climbing onto the trap assembly.

An insect trap is provided. The insect trap includes a trap portion and a base portion. The trap portion includes an enclosure with an adhesive surface and a first opening, wherein the adhesive surface is at least partially contained within the enclosure and is configured to adhere to an insect. The base portion includes a lighting element and a mounting portion, wherein the lighting element is configured to provide light to the trap portion and wherein the mounting portion is configured to communicate with and receive power from a power source. The trap portion is configured to removably engage the base portion and receive light from the base portion when engaged therewith. The base portion includes a snap protrusion and the trap portion includes a snap recess for receiving the snap protrusion, wherein when the snap protrusion is received by the trap portion, the base portion and trap portion are engaged in a snap fit.

A replaceable insert for an insect trapping device is provided. The insert is releaseably retained within the shell and has an adhesive portion for trapping insects. The insert has a substantially planar, longitudinally extending tab. The tab of the cartridge is laterally offset from a centerline of the insert.

The present invention provides an electrified garbage container cover that destroys insects that may attempt to access, or escape from a garbage container. The electrified garbage container cover includes a silicone cover configured to fit the opening of a garbage container, said cover having an opening; and an electrified top. The electrified top comprises a mesh frame portion, which supports an electrified mesh and is configured cover the opening; and an electrified mesh capable of electrifying insects; and a power source; wherein the electrified mesh comprises: a central mesh having a first side and a second side, the central mesh electrically connected to the power source and supported by the mesh frame portion; a first ground mesh located adjacent and spaced apart from the first side of the central mesh and electrically connected to the power source and supported by the mesh frame portion; a second ground mesh located adjacent and spaced apart from the second side of the central mesh and electrically connected to said power source and supported by the mesh frame portion.

The invention is directed at to a pest entrapment device for attracting and trapping flying pests around the head of a person. The apparatus includes an attachable device having at least one member, which member contains at least one cavity to hold a pest attractant. The attachable device is affixed to a head covering on the underside of a bill, brim, visor or the like. The pest attractant can be of a combination of grease, carbon dioxide, sweetener, and a sticky, viscid matter. The pest attractant also acts as a trapping substance to capture the flying insects. The pest entrapment device can be removed for cleaning and reapplication of the pest attractant.
