ABSTRACT:
An insect trap of the baseboard type includes a base and a detachable cover. A high-voltage electrical potential is established between first and second electrically conductive strips secured to the base, and a third electrically conductive strip is interposed between the first and second strips. A portion of the third strip is insulated from the second strip, and a fourth conductive strip is mounted upon the insulated portion of the third strip so as to be electrically connected to the second strip. The remaining portions of the third strip are engageable with and disengageable from the second strip by means of the trap cover as to alternatively short circuit, or permit the establishment of, the high-voltage electrical potential.
