ABSTRACT:
A bug trap having the appearance of a plant and being comprised as an artificial plant having stems with interior tubular passages connected at one end to a bug receptacle and having at the other end flower-type blossoms for attracting the bugs. Bugs are attracted to the blossom and then are trapped in the tubular stem whereby they eventually make their way to the bug receptacle. The blossoms carry a plurality of filament type members which are sufficient in number and closely located to permit the bug to enter the blossom but prevent its retreat. The filament type members are connected at one end to interior surfaces of the blossom and extend toward the tubular passage of the stem. The blossom can carry an odor bait to attract bugs. The receiptacle can include a disposable plastic bag that is removed from time to time for disposition of the trapped bugs.
