ABSTRACT:
An insect trap is disclosed which includes a double-cone structure having a receiving chamber for an attractive composition with a tapered surface and a retaining chamber for placement thereon. A conical indentation formed in the bottom of the retaining chamber provides a tapered surface which is spaced from that of the receiving chamber thus forming the first cone. The central portion of the indentation provides the second cone which is light-transmissive and has a central opening. The tapered surfaces of the chambers are opaque. An insect passageway is formed in the receiving chamber and communicates with the central opening. Thus, an insect entering the chamber through the tapered surfaces experiences light from above through the second cone and is drawn upward through the central opening into the retaining chamber where it is trapped.
