ABSTRACT:
A trap for crawling insects, such as cockroaches, comprises a container with a detachable lid having an opening large enough to admit an insect, this opening giving access to a supply of bait on the container bottom. A downward extension of the lid adjacent its opening, such as a collar surrounding that opening, terminates high enough above the bottom to allow the insect to drop down onto the bait but not to return to the opening by the same path. The inner peripheral wall of the container is coated with a slippery film, preventing the insect from climbing that wall. The bait may be contained in a cup-shaped receptacle on the container bottom.
