ABSTRACT:
The vehicle roach trap is an economical and ergonomic paper or plastic cup insect trap containing a bait and which can be placed in the vehicle's cup holder(s). In a first embodiment, a paper cup trap has a lipped transparent plastic concave cover formed by an inverted dome with a small flap at its bottom that will fall open by the insect's weight. A second embodiment has a similar cover, but without the flap, and has at least a portion of the cup interior coated by a sticky, viscous substance. In the latter case, an alternative cover is substantially planar, having a plurality of concave depressions, each depression having a hole defined therein through which the roach may fall. The planar cover may also have resilient, pivotal flaps covering the holes. An adhesive sticker may be provided for sealing the hole(s) for disposal of the trap.
