ABSTRACT:
A streamlined housing contains an omnidirectional circular light source, an airflow channel with a flow restriction located just below the light source, and a motor driven fan with the fan blade located just below the restricted flow section of the airflow channel. The light source may be selectively directed by a movable reflecting screen. The fan motor and light source may be powered by a 12-volt D.C. source. The airflow channel is shaped to funnel airflow around the light source through the flow restricted area at high velocity, throwing the insects into a base container with deadly force. The base container has a large exhaust port and forms a part of the airflow channel. The airflow channel also acts to funnel and disperse the light from the light source so that the ground below the light source, as well as all directions above the level of the light source, are illuminated.
