ABSTRACT:
An insect capture extermination system provides a hollow fluid-type housing having an intake channel. A negative pressure assembly secured within the housing is actuated by a proximity sensor which detects insects at the entrance to the intake channel. Also provided is an inner flow permeable membrane which provides particulate barrier to both protect the negative pressure assembly and to capture and store insects between cleaning of the system. Insects are attracted to an insect attraction element, such as sonic, olfactory and phosphoric elements, and pulled into the intake channel of the housing and captured. The system may be adapted for use with food display counters and in residential structures. A proximity sensor maintains the system in a normally-off mode in the absence of insect activity at the intake channel.
