ABSTRACT:
The insect trap of the present invention comprises a conical shell having a downwardly and inwardly tapered sidewall and an upstanding annular rim provided at the top of the sidewall. Baffles are positioned within the conical shell and extend upwardly therefrom. An insect receptacle is provided into which the bottom of the conical shell opens. The baffles of the insect trap preferably comprises four fins, each fin having a slot and an aperture formed therein. Flat insect lures which extend through the slots in the fins are provided in the baffles and a plug-like insect lure is positioned in the aperture in one of the fins of the baffles. The two types of insect lures effectively attract insects into the insect trap such that insects like the baffles, fall downwardly through the conical shell and are captured in the insect receptacle.
