ABSTRACT:
The invention is a trap for flying insects. The trap is designed for attracting, trapping and killing flying pests such as wasps, yellow jackets and hornets. The trap is shaped to utilize both a liquid carbohydrate bait and a solid protein bait. The trap is preferably vacuumed formed from a single piece of UV-resistant plastic material. The trap for flying insects comprises a pair of opposing side panels, a plurality of insect entrances formed in the side panels, an integrally molded central tray attached to the side panels by living hinges, an integrally molded trough formed within the central tray, and an integrated, elevated bait support extending upwardly from the trough, wherein the side panels pivot to engage each other and the bottom tray to form an enclosed volume for trapping and holding flying insects.
