ABSTRACT:
An adhesive device for capturing insects includes a thin main body with a mirrored, operative surface upon which an adhesive material is disposed for capturing insects upon contact. The mirrored surface provides a reflection similar to water so as to attract insects, such as mosquitoes, which are naturally drawn toward water. The device may include one or more insect attractants such as odors, pheromones, food, blood, urine, glow-in-the-dark materials and glitter. An opposite surface includes additional adhesive material for affixing the device to an object, surface or area where usage is desired.
