Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は害虫を駆除するのに用いられる捕虫器に係わり、特に室内に配置してゴキブリを捕殺することのできる簡便な捕虫器に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
一般に、人畜に害を与える虫としてゴキブリ、夜盗蛾、ハエ、アブラムシ、又は蚊などが知られる。このうち、ゴキブリは偏平な体形を有するゴキブリ目ゴキブリ科に属する昆虫であり、その多くは褐色乃至黒褐色で油に浸ったような光沢があり、家住性のものは人間や荷物の移動に伴って広く伝播し、台所などで食品を害するのみならず伝染病を媒介する。
【0003】
その種の害虫を駆除するべく従来から殺虫剤が一般に広く利用されているが、ピレスロイドやピレトリンなどを含む殺虫剤は殺虫能力が高いものの人体にも害があるため、その使用には注意を要する。特に、従来では殺虫剤を害虫に直接噴霧する方法が採られているため、その使用量の割には捕殺量が少なく、飛翔性を有する有翅の昆虫類では殺虫剤を吹き付ける前に逃げられてしまうことも多い。
【0004】
そこで、ハエなどの害虫を誘引して捕殺することのできる定置式の装置が種々提案されている。その一例として、上部が開口する容器内にパイプの下端を挿入すると共に、容器内に界面活性剤入りの液体を収容し、パイプ内で発生させた泡をパイプの上部からその外面に沿って流下させ、その泡に飛翔性の害虫を突入せしめて捕殺するという害虫駆除装置がある(例えば、特許文献1)。
【0005】
【特許文献1】
特開2003−61540号公報
【0006】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
然し乍ら、特許文献1に記載される害虫駆除装置は構造が複雑でコスト高になり、しかも容器内に集められる害虫の死骸が丸見えの状態であるから廃棄処分するにも心理的に不快感を伴うという欠点があった。
【0007】
又、上記の従来装置は飛翔性の害虫を駆除対象とし、容器上に直立するパイプの外周部に泡の塊を形成して該泡内に害虫を誘引しようとするものであるから、ゴキブリほか飛翔性を有しない害虫の駆除は困難であった。尚、ゴキブリは飛翔性昆虫であっても室内で飛翔することは少なく、夜間において部屋の隅などを這い回るという習性があるので、上記従来装置による駆除率はハエなどに比べると非常に少ないものであった。
【0008】
本発明は以上のような事情に鑑みて成されたものであり、その目的はゴキブリを主たる駆除対象とし、これを多量に捕殺することのできる簡便な捕虫器を提供することにある。
【0009】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記目的を達成するため、本発明に係る捕虫器は上面に複数の落し穴を穿孔した捕虫容器を備え、その内部に誘引成分を含む薬液が収容可能とされて成ることを特徴とする。
【0010】
又、前記捕虫容器が上面に複数の落し穴を形成する外箱と該外箱内に設けられるトレイとで構成される紙製であり、前記トレイはその内部に薬液を収容すべく防水性を有しており、しかも外箱にはその上端縁より張り出す突片が設けられ、その突片が外箱の上面に害虫を進行させるためのスロープを形成することを特徴とする。
【0011】
更に、上面に複数の落し穴を穿孔した外箱内に誘引成分を含む薬液を収容するためのトレイを内蔵して成る捕虫容器と、この捕虫容器を収容するケーシングとから構成され、そのケーシングは前記捕虫容器を嵌め込むための容器装填部を形成する下部台と、この下部台上に設置される天蓋とを備え、前記下部台の外壁には害虫を進入せしめるための進入口が開口されると共に、下部台の内部には前記進入口より進入した害虫を前記容器装填部の上端へ誘導する傾斜状の案内路が形成され、前記天蓋には害虫を誘引するための誘引手段が設けられていることを特徴とする。
【0012】
尚、誘引手段は、発光ダイオードとこれを点灯させるための電源部とを具備して成る。これによれば、発光ダイオードの発熱により高温多湿を好むゴキブリの誘引効果が上がり、しかも発光ダイオードは消費電力が少ないので省エネルギー対策にもなる。又、捕獲すべき害虫の種類により発光ダイオードの光色を選択することにより、誘引効果を更に向上させることができる。
【0013】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明の適用例を図面に基づいて詳細に説明する。図1は本発明に係る捕虫器の好適な一例を示した斜視分解図である。図1において、1は紙製の捕虫容器、2は捕虫容器を収容するケーシングである。このうち、捕虫容器1は立方体構造の外箱1Aと、その内部に出し入れ可能に設けられるトレイ1Bとで構成される。外箱1Aの上面にはゴキブリなどの害虫を落し込むための複数の落し穴11が穿孔され、トレイ1Bには後述するような薬液が収容可能とされている。
【0014】
尚、本例において、落し穴11は縦5mm、横10mm程度の長方形とされるが、これを丸穴などとしても差し支えない。又、捕虫容器1を稜線部に隙間のない一個体の箱として、その内部に適量の薬液を漏らさず収納できるような構造とすることもできる。
【0015】
一方、ケーシング2は、下部台2Aとその上に設置される天蓋2Bとで構成される。それらはステンレス鋼などの金属板から形成され、このうち下部台2Aは上部が開口する有底の方形枠状であり、その内部は隔壁21により三分割されている。そして、その中央領域は捕虫容器1を嵌め込むための容器装填部22とされ、その両側面には捕虫容器1を容易に取り出し得るよう凹状の切欠部23が形成される。又、下部台2Aの外壁下部には害虫を進入させるための進入口24が開口される。本例において、進入口24は下部台2Aの四隅と両端中央に形成され、その進入口24が開通する下部台の内部両側領域には進入口24から進入した害虫を容器装填部22の上端に誘導する傾斜状の案内路25が形成される。
【0016】
他方、天蓋2Bはその上面が半円弧状とされ、その両側面には下部台2Aの切欠部23と噛み合う凸部26が形成されると共に、天蓋2Bの底部両端縁には下部台2Aの内側に嵌まり込む縁金27が取り付けられる。そして、係る天蓋2Bは下部台2A上に設置されてその上部開口部分を閉鎖するようになっている。
【0017】
図2は下部台上に天蓋を設置した状態を示す断面図である。この図で明らかなように、捕虫容器1を容器装填部22に嵌合した状態において、捕虫容器1の上面は下部台2Aの上端とほぼ面一となるほか、捕虫容器1の上面と天蓋2Bの底面との間には10mm程度の間隙が形成されるようになっている。
【0018】
又、図2のように、天蓋2Bには害虫を誘引するための誘引手段3が設けられる。本例において、その誘引手段3は発光ダイオード31と、これを点灯させるための電源部32(電池)、並びに発光ダイオードと電源部とを繋ぐ回路中に介在される電源スイッチ33とで構成される。尚、発光ダイオード31の光色に限定はないが、本例ではこれに赤色LEDが用いられる。
【0019】
そして、以上のような誘引手段3によれば、発光ダイオード31の点灯による発熱でケーシング2内を加温し、その熱によって害虫、それも暖かい場所を好むゴキブリの誘引効果を上げることができる。但し、発光ダイオード31に代えて白熱電球や蛍光管、又は電熱線などの発熱体を利用することもできる。ここに、白熱電球などでは発光ダイオードに比べると消費電力が大きいものの、発熱量が大きいので熱による誘引効果は高く、しかも光による誘引効果も得られる。
【0020】
次に、図3は捕虫容器の一端部を示す。この図で明らかなように、捕虫容器1を構成する外箱1Aの端面は折曲片12を有して開閉自在とされる。そして、その一端面を開放することによりトレイ1Bを出し入れできるようになっている。
【0021】
図4に示すように、トレイ1Bはその上部が全面開口する方形状の形態であり、その中には適量の薬液Lが収容可能とされている。特に、このトレイ1Bは一枚の原紙を折り込んで形成され、その内面にはプラスチックフィルムをコーティングするなどして防水加工が施され、これによって薬液Lの浸透、漏出が防止されている。尚、トレイ1Bに防水性をもたせる手段として、その素材に防水性を有する合成紙を用いるほか、その内面に撥水剤を塗布するなどしてもよい。
【0022】
尚、薬液Lは誘引成分を含んだ液体であり、そのベース液にはゴキブリをはじめとする害虫に対して誘引効果のあるアルコールと糖類の混合液が用いられる。このうち、糖類としては、柿をはじめとする果物の抽出エキス(果汁)ほか、砂糖や蜂蜜を水やアルコールで希釈したものが用いられる。又、ベース液として糖質を含む日本酒、好ましくはこれに果汁を加えたものを用いることができる。但し、誘引成分は虫の走性(走化性)により様々であるから、薬液は上記のようなものに限らず、捕獲対象によって適当なものが選択される。例えば、捕獲対象がハエであれば、薬液には誘引成分としてアンモニアを含むものが有効である。特に、誘引成分として性フェロモン、それも虫の死骸やその体液を用いることもできる。
【0023】
又、薬液Lは誘引成分ほか、虫の神経系を麻痺させる物質や殺虫性を有する物質などを含むことが好ましい。神経系を麻痺させる物質としては、唐辛子や山椒といった辛辣性香辛料、又はリモネンを含む柑橘類の抽出エキスが挙げられ、殺虫性を有する物質としてはピレスロイド、ピレトリン、ロテノイド、カルバメート、又はディルドリンなどが挙げられる。
【0024】
ここで、以上のように構成される捕虫器の作用を説明すれば、発光ダイオード31の点灯よってケーシング2内が徐々に加温されるほか、捕虫容器1内の薬液Lからは誘引成分が僅かずつ気化し、これが落し穴11からケーシング2内を経て外部に拡散する。すると、これを嗅ぎ取った害虫(主にゴキブリ)が係る捕虫器の回りに集まり、進入口24よりケーシング2内に進入する。又、ケーシング2内に進入した害虫は、誘引成分の発散源(薬液L)と発光ダイオード31による加温部分を求めて案内路25を這い上がる。そして、その上部に達した害虫は捕虫容器1の上面を這い回り、狭い場所を好むゴキブリは隣り合う落し穴11の間で出入りを繰り返し、軈ては落し穴11からトレイ1B内に落下して薬液Lに浸かり、これにより気門を塞がれるなどして窒息死する。
【0025】
特に、その死骸からはフェロモンその他の誘引物質が発散され、これによって誘引効果が助長される。因に、薬液Lに神経系を麻痺させる物質を混入しておけば、虫を直ぐさま薬液中に落下させることができ、殺虫剤入りのものでは薬液中に落下した害虫を即死させることができる。
【0026】
斯くて、捕虫容器1内が害虫の死骸で満杯状態になったら、これをケーシング2内から取り出し、害虫の死骸を捕虫容器1ごと廃棄場所まで運んで廃棄すればよく、このとき外箱1Aの上面による遮蔽効果で内部の視認性が不良状態にあるので不快感を伴うことはない。
【0027】
以上、本発明の適用例を説明したが、係る捕虫器は薬液の種類を限定するものでなく、これには捕獲対象により最適な誘引成分を含むものを適宜選択することが望ましい。又、上記のようなケーシング2を備えていれば所定の場所に配置して体裁を損なわないので好ましいが、係る捕虫器はケーシング2を省略して捕虫容器1のみで使用することもできる。単体使用に適用する捕虫容器の好適な一例を図5に示して説明すると、この捕虫器も上記例と同じく外箱1Aとその内部に設けられるトレイ1Bとで構成され、外箱1Aの上面には複数の落し穴11が穿孔されると共に、トレイ1Bには適量の薬液が収容されるようになっている。特に、本例において、外箱1Aにはその上端縁より張り出す突片13が一体的に設けられる。その突片13は外箱1Aの両端にあって外箱1Aと同一の幅を有し、使用に際して該突片13が外箱1Aの上面に害虫を進行させるためのスロープを形成するようにしてある。
【0028】
そして、上記のような捕虫容器によれば、これを所定場所に配置して突片13でスロープを形成し、その突片13に沿って害虫を外箱1Aの上面まで導き、以て外箱1Aの上面まで達した害虫を落し穴11からトレイ1B内の薬液中に落し込めて捕殺することができる。特に、図5のような捕虫容器1では、廃棄場所へ運ぶ際に突片13を外箱1Aの上面上に折り重ねて害虫の死骸を全く目にすることなく廃棄することができる。
【0029】
【発明の効果】
以上の説明で明らかなように、本発明に係る捕虫器によれば、上面に複数の落し穴を穿孔した捕虫容器を備え、その内部に誘引成分を含む薬液が収容可能とされていることから、ゴキブリをはじめとする害虫を誘引し、これを落し穴から薬液中に落下せしめて捕殺することができる。
【0030】
又、捕虫容器が複数の落し穴を形成する外箱と該外箱内に設けられるトレイとで構成される紙製の簡易構造であるから低コスト化を図れ、使い捨てにして廃棄処分が容易であり、しかも外箱の上面による遮蔽効果で害虫の死骸が目に付き難いので廃棄処分に際して不快感を軽減できる。
【0031】
更に、外箱にスロープを形成する突片を設けていることから、外箱の上面への害虫の進行を促して多数の害虫を捕殺することができる。
【0032】
又、捕虫容器を収容するケーシングを備えることから、所定の場所に配置して体裁を損なわず、しかもケーシングを構成する天蓋には害虫を誘引するための誘引手段が設けられていることから、薬液に含まれる誘引成分との相乗作用により多数の害虫を誘引することができる。特に、誘引手段が発光ダイオードとこれを点灯させるための電源部とを具備したものであるから、発光ダイオードの発熱と発光により誘引効果が上がり、しかも発光ダイオードは消費電力が少ないので省エネルギー対策にもなる。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an insect trap used for controlling pests, and more particularly to a simple insect trap which can be disposed indoors to kill cockroaches.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Generally, cockroaches, night moths, flies, aphids, or mosquitoes are known as insects that harm human animals. Of these, cockroaches are insects belonging to the cockroach cockroach family with a flattened body shape, many of which are brown or black-brown and have a luster immersed in oil, and those of residential nature are associated with the movement of humans and luggage. It spreads widely and not only harms foods in the kitchen, but also transmits infectious diseases.
[0003]
Insecticides have been widely used to control such pests.However, pesticides including pyrethroids and pyrethrin have high insecticidal abilities, but they are harmful to the human body. . In particular, since the method of spraying pesticides directly on insect pests has been adopted in the past, the killing amount is small for the amount used, and winged insects with flight properties can escape before spraying insecticide. It often happens.
[0004]
Therefore, various stationary devices capable of attracting and killing pests such as flies have been proposed. As an example, the lower end of the pipe is inserted into a container with an open top, a liquid containing a surfactant is contained in the container, and bubbles generated in the pipe flow down along the outer surface of the pipe from the top of the pipe. There is a pest control device in which flying bubbles are rushed into the foam to kill the insects (for example, Patent Document 1).
[0005]
[Patent Document 1]
JP-A-2003-61540 [0006]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, the pest control apparatus described in Patent Document 1 has a complicated structure and is costly, and furthermore, since the pest carcasses collected in the container are in a full view, disposal of the pests is also accompanied by psychological discomfort. There was a disadvantage.
[0007]
In addition, the above-mentioned conventional apparatus is intended to exterminate flying pests and forms a lump of foam on the outer periphery of a pipe standing upright on a container to attract pests into the foam. It is difficult to control insects that do not have flight properties. In addition, even if a cockroach is a flying insect, it rarely flies indoors and has the habit of crawling around the corner of the room at night, so the extermination rate by the above conventional device is very low compared to flies etc. Met.
[0008]
The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a simple insect trap which mainly targets cockroaches for extermination and can kill a large amount of them.
[0009]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to achieve the above object, the insect trap according to the present invention is provided with an insect trap having a plurality of pits formed on an upper surface thereof, in which a chemical solution containing an attractant component can be stored.
[0010]
Further, the insect container is made of paper made of an outer box having a plurality of pits formed on an upper surface thereof and a tray provided in the outer box, and the tray has a waterproof property to accommodate a chemical solution therein. In addition, the outer box is provided with a protruding piece projecting from the upper edge thereof, and the protruding piece forms a slope on the upper surface of the outer box for advancing pests.
[0011]
Furthermore, a trap container having a built-in tray for containing a medicinal solution containing an attractant component in an outer box having a plurality of pits formed in the upper surface thereof, and a casing containing the trap container, the casing includes the casing described above. A lower base forming a container loading portion for fitting the insect trap is provided, and a canopy installed on the lower base is provided, and an entrance is provided on an outer wall of the lower base to allow pests to enter. An inclined guideway for guiding the pests entering from the entrance to the upper end of the container loading section is formed inside the lower base, and the canopy is provided with an attracting means for attracting the pests. It is characterized by the following.
[0012]
The attracting means includes a light emitting diode and a power supply for lighting the light emitting diode. According to this, the effect of attracting cockroaches who prefer high temperature and high humidity is increased by the heat generated by the light emitting diode, and the light emitting diode consumes less power, which is also an energy saving measure. In addition, the attraction effect can be further improved by selecting the light color of the light emitting diode according to the type of pest to be captured.
[0013]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, application examples of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view showing a preferred example of the insect trap according to the present invention. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a paper trap container, and 2 denotes a casing that houses the trap container. Among these, the insect trap 1 is composed of an outer box 1A having a cubic structure and a tray 1B provided so as to be able to be taken in and out. A plurality of pits 11 for dropping pests such as cockroaches are perforated on the upper surface of the outer box 1A, and the tray 1B can accommodate a chemical solution as described later.
[0014]
In addition, in this example, the drop hole 11 is a rectangle having a length of about 5 mm and a width of about 10 mm, but this may be a round hole. Alternatively, the insect trap 1 may be configured as a single box having no gaps at the ridge line so that a suitable amount of the drug solution can be stored therein without leaking.
[0015]
On the other hand, the casing 2 includes a lower base 2A and a canopy 2B installed thereon. They are formed of a metal plate such as stainless steel. Of these, the lower base 2A is in the form of a rectangular frame with a bottom and an upper opening, and the inside thereof is divided into three by a partition 21. The central region is a container loading portion 22 for fitting the insect trap 1, and a concave notch 23 is formed on both sides of the trap compartment 23 so that the insect trap 1 can be easily taken out. In addition, an entrance 24 for opening a pest is opened in a lower portion of the outer wall of the lower base 2A. In this example, the entrances 24 are formed at the four corners and the center of both ends of the lower base 2A, and the pests entering from the entrance 24 are placed at the upper end of the container loading section 22 in both inner regions of the lower base where the entrance 24 opens. An inclined guide path 25 for guiding is formed.
[0016]
On the other hand, the upper surface of the canopy 2B is formed in a semicircular arc shape, and on both sides thereof are formed convex portions 26 which engage with the cutouts 23 of the lower platform 2A. A rim 27 that fits into the frame is attached. The canopy 2B is installed on the lower base 2A to close the upper opening.
[0017]
FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view showing a state where a canopy is installed on a lower base. As is apparent from this figure, when the insect trap 1 is fitted to the container loading section 22, the upper surface of the trap 1 is substantially flush with the upper end of the lower base 2A, and the upper surface of the trap 1 and the canopy 2B. A gap of about 10 mm is formed between the base and the bottom.
[0018]
Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the canopy 2B is provided with an attracting means 3 for attracting pests. In this example, the attraction means 3 is composed of a light emitting diode 31, a power supply unit 32 (battery) for lighting the light emitting diode 31, and a power switch 33 interposed in a circuit connecting the light emitting diode and the power supply unit. . Although the light color of the light emitting diode 31 is not limited, a red LED is used in this embodiment.
[0019]
Then, according to the above-described attracting means 3, the inside of the casing 2 is heated by the heat generated by the lighting of the light emitting diode 31, and the heat can increase the effect of attracting pests and cockroaches that prefer warm places. However, a heating element such as an incandescent lamp, a fluorescent tube, or a heating wire may be used instead of the light emitting diode 31. Here, in an incandescent light bulb or the like, although the power consumption is larger than that of the light emitting diode, since the amount of generated heat is large, the effect of attraction by heat is high and the effect of attraction by light can be obtained.
[0020]
Next, FIG. 3 shows one end of the insect trap. As is clear from this figure, the end face of the outer box 1A constituting the insect trap 1 has a bent piece 12 and can be opened and closed freely. The tray 1B can be taken in and out by opening one end surface thereof.
[0021]
As shown in FIG. 4, the tray 1 </ b> B has a square shape whose upper part is entirely open, and can accommodate an appropriate amount of the liquid medicine L therein. In particular, the tray 1B is formed by folding one sheet of base paper, and its inner surface is waterproofed by coating a plastic film or the like, thereby preventing the penetration and leakage of the chemical solution L. As a means for imparting waterproofness to the tray 1B, a synthetic paper having waterproofness may be used for the material, or a water repellent may be applied to the inner surface.
[0022]
The drug solution L is a liquid containing an attractant component, and a mixture of an alcohol and a saccharide having an attracting effect on pests such as cockroaches is used as the base solution. Among them, as the sugars, there are used extracts (fruit juice) of fruits such as persimmons, and sugars and honeys diluted with water or alcohol. As the base liquid, it is possible to use a sake containing saccharides, preferably a juice obtained by adding fruit juice. However, since the attractant component varies depending on the chemotaxis (chemotaxis) of the insect, the drug solution is not limited to the one described above, and an appropriate one is selected depending on the capture target. For example, if the capture target is a fly, a chemical solution containing ammonia as an attractant component is effective. In particular, a sex pheromone, a carcass of an insect or a body fluid thereof can be used as the attractant component.
[0023]
Further, it is preferable that the drug solution L contains, in addition to the attractant component, a substance that paralyzes the nervous system of the insect or a substance that has insecticidal properties. The substance that paralyzes the nervous system includes sharp spices such as pepper and pepper, or citrus extract including limonene, and the insecticidal substance includes pyrethroid, pyrethrin, rotenoid, carbamate, and dieldrin. .
[0024]
Here, the operation of the insect trap configured as described above will be described. In addition to the fact that the inside of the casing 2 is gradually heated by the lighting of the light emitting diode 31, only a small amount of the attracting component is emitted from the liquid medicine L in the insect trap container 1. The gas is gradually vaporized, and diffuses from the pit 11 through the casing 2 to the outside. Then, the pests (mainly cockroaches) sniffing this gather around the trap, and enter the casing 2 through the entrance 24. In addition, the pest that has entered the casing 2 crawls up the guide path 25 in search of a divergent source of the attractant component (chemical solution L) and a heated portion by the light emitting diode 31. Then, the pest reaching the upper part crawls on the upper surface of the insect trap 1, and the cockroaches preferring a narrow place repeatedly enter and exit between the adjacent pits 11, and subsequently fall into the tray 1B from the pit 11 and into the chemical liquid L. They will soak and suffocate as they block the respiratory tract.

In particular, pheromones and other attractants emanate from the carcass, which enhances the attractant effect. However, if a substance that denervates the nervous system is mixed in the liquid medicine L, the insects can be immediately dropped into the liquid medicine, and those containing an insecticide can immediately kill the pests dropped into the liquid medicine. .
[0026]
Thus, when the inside of the insect trap container 1 is full of the pest carcasses, it is taken out of the casing 2 and the carcasses of the pests are transported to the disposal place together with the insect pests 1 and discarded. Since the visibility inside is poor due to the shielding effect of the upper surface, there is no discomfort.
[0027]
As described above, the application examples of the present invention have been described. However, the insect trap does not limit the kind of the chemical solution, and it is desirable to appropriately select a trap containing an optimum attraction component depending on the capture target. It is preferable to provide the casing 2 as described above, since the casing 2 is disposed at a predetermined place and does not impair the appearance. However, the trapping device can be used only with the trapping container 1 without the casing 2. A preferred example of an insect trap applied to a single use will be described with reference to FIG. 5. This trap is also composed of an outer box 1A and a tray 1B provided therein similarly to the above example. Is formed such that a plurality of pits 11 are drilled, and an appropriate amount of a chemical is stored in the tray 1B. In particular, in this example, the outer box 1A is integrally provided with a protruding piece 13 projecting from the upper edge thereof. The protruding pieces 13 are at both ends of the outer box 1A and have the same width as the outer box 1A. In use, the protruding pieces 13 form a slope on the upper surface of the outer box 1A for advancing pests. is there.
[0028]
According to the insect trap as described above, the trap is arranged at a predetermined place, a slope is formed by the projection 13, and the pest is guided along the projection 13 to the upper surface of the outer box 1 </ b> A. The pest that has reached the upper surface of 1A can be dropped into the chemical solution in the tray 1B through the pit 11 and killed. In particular, in the insect trap 1 as shown in FIG. 5, the protruding piece 13 can be folded on the upper surface of the outer box 1A when transported to the disposal place, and can be disposed of without seeing any dead insect pest.
[0029]
【The invention's effect】
As is clear from the above description, according to the insect trap according to the present invention, the insect trap is provided with a plurality of pits formed on the upper surface, because the medicine containing the attracting component can be accommodated therein, It can attract cockroaches and other pests and drop them into chemicals through pits to kill them.
[0030]
Further, since the insect trap has a simple paper-made structure composed of an outer box forming a plurality of pits and a tray provided in the outer box, cost reduction can be achieved, and disposable disposal is easy. Moreover, since the pests are hardly noticeable due to the shielding effect of the upper surface of the outer box, discomfort during disposal can be reduced.
[0031]
Further, since the outer box is provided with the projections forming the slope, it is possible to promote the progress of the pest to the upper surface of the outer box and to kill a large number of pests.
[0032]
In addition, since a casing for accommodating insect traps is provided, the casing is disposed at a predetermined place so as not to impair the appearance, and the canopy constituting the casing is provided with an attracting means for attracting insect pests. A large number of pests can be attracted by the synergistic action with the attractant component contained in. In particular, since the attracting means includes a light emitting diode and a power supply for lighting the light emitting diode, the attracting effect is increased by the heat generation and light emission of the light emitting diode. Become.
