Description

Yo

The invention relates to agriculture, to devices for capturing harmful insects, protection against flying and creeping insects in the home

A portable trap for insects is the most economically affordable device for small-scale crop production, horticulture and, moreover, environmentally friendly.

A known design of the prototype device containing a pheromone vaporizer and a means of catching and exterminating insect pests (adhesive-coated gasket). The gasket consists of one sheet metal part, and the body is assembled in the form of a half-pipe with open ends

A drawback of the known construction is that insects can escape through open ends in cases when they return without reaching the Velcro or tear off it, the absence of a combined bait; lack of a structural element for mounting the trap in a given place

A device is known in the form of a prismatic box-package with an attractant and insecticide applied to internal surfaces, with lateral folds at the entrances to prevent insects from leaving.

A disadvantage of the known device is the absence of a removable (replaceable) element for fixing the captured insects for subsequent destruction of the captured insects with the sticky element fixing them, the absence of a fodder (natural) bait, the presence of a sharpened dochemical, the fragility, the inconvenience of the operation of the attractant only during mating of insects , the absence of a fastening element in a given place

A device is known that comprises two parts: a tray with a da-bait groove vessel with flies entering through a lower central opening and a transparent pyramidal lid.

The disadvantage of such a device is the use of liquid yes, a narrow specialization in catching flies in residential premises, installation only strictly on a horizontal base, rapid evaporation of the bait solution under the influence of the greenhouse effect.

A device is known comprising a hanging container, a light bait, an inlet funnel with a separator for insects to be captured, an aerosol supply device.

A disadvantage of the known device is its effect only at night on flying insects, the possibility of suspension only on strong branches of trees, the absence of natural lures, the effect only on flying nocturnal insects, cumbersomeness, complexity, high cost, high weight.

A device is known comprising a housing with a bait, a fixing element with an adhesive layer.

A disadvantage of the known device is inconvenient for a smooth entry into the body of the shape of the trap, the lack of a convenient design for inserting and removing elements, the fragility of the structure.

The aim of the invention is to increase the yield of agricultural crops by more efficient capture, ensuring reliable fixation of the captured insects and the convenience of their subsequent destruction.

Figure 1 shows the proposed trap; figure 2 is a section aa in figure 1.

A needle 3 is vertically fixed on a round flat base plate in the center (when placing it on a horizontal surface). A disk 6 with a layer of adhesive (sticky) substance 5 with additives for insect bait (pheromones, attractants) is put on it until it contacts the base 9. etc. - natural or synthetic, but not toxic - environmentally friendly), then forage bait 4 (for example, for Colorado potato beetles fresh young potatoes or a slice of it), insulating ring 12, foam ring 11 saturated with bait solution (in including pheromone, attractant), again an insulating ring 12. then, (sequentially upward) the ring 13 with a solution or juice from the leaves of the plant to be protected. Cutouts are made along the rounded end of base 9

under the teeth 7 for attaching a hemispherical mesh cover 1 In the base disc 9, a fastener loop 10 is fixed to fix the trap on the soil surface, wall

or a plant. A mesh cover 1 of transparent, waterproof, resilient plastic is latched onto the base disc 9. At the bottom of the lid 1, the inlets 8 are made in the form of traps inclined slightly upward to the vertical central axis. These tubes make it difficult for the insects to escape accidentally onto the sticky disk 6. Loop 2 is attached to the disk 6 to remove the disk 6 after it is filled with insects to

5 destruction.

The insect trap operates as follows. It is mounted on a horizontal or inclined surface of the soil, suspended on a plant or wall,

fixed in place at the loop 10.

Odor insects

feed or biological bait or

from the hemispherical cover 1, or

5 from the side of the installation surface of the trap, crawl into the holes from the base 9, through inclined tubes enter the cavity of the trap and then onto the disk 6 with a layer of sticky substance with a bait. The insect is moved to the center of the base 9 of the trap by the combined bait (4; 11; 13) on the central needle 3. When the entire surface of the sticky layer 5 is filled with fixed insects,

5, the cover 1 is removed from the base 9, the disk 6 (with layer 5) is removed and destroyed (for example, burning), and the bait (4; 11; 13), after installing a new disk 5; 6 again placed in the same place on the needle 3, on the base 9

0 put on cover 1 and the trap is ready for action again. Thus, in addition to disk 5; 6, most parts are constantly used in the trap, providing the necessary durability and reliability of this

5 devices.

For camouflage, the outer surface of the mesh cover 1 can be painted in the usual background of its place of action, for example, to protect it from the Colorado potato beetle, in color

0 soil, leaves and flowers of potatoes.

According to seasons and insect species, baits (4: 11; 13) on the central needle 3 can be replaced.

The insulating rings 12 are provided to prevent loss of bait solution, to separate them, to avoid disturbance in composition and odor, for ease of installation and dismantling.

The sequence of installation of the elements along the axis of the needle 3 from the base 9 is determined not only by the size of each, but also by the necessary stability of this pyramid, tapering from the base 9 to the top of the needle 3. The first bait 4 is from a natural feed product (for example, for a Colorado potato beetle) or its segment) is larger and heavier. Higher are the lures 11 and 13, whose smells should be closer to the net cover 1.

The hemispherical shape of the mesh cover 1 affects the greater accessibility for insects to reach the inlet 8 to the tubes inside the trap cavity. Placing the holes 8 at the lower edge of the lid 1 at the base 9 facilitates the penetration of insect traps crawling on the installation surface (soil, plant, wall).

This insect trap device has a number of differences from known devices for this purpose,

In the insect trap inside the casing with holes for the passage of insects a uniform bait is installed, the inner surfaces of the casing are covered with sticky substance, and it is destroyed when filled with insects, so this trap is single-use, while ours is reusable.

In the cockroach trap, a flat inclined ladder is used to prevent the cockroaches from returning.

Our device has inlet tubes inclined above the bottom of base 9 at the outlet, which makes it more difficult for insects to escape accidentally.

In the insect trap there are discs with sticky-coated surfaces, and a bait is mounted on the pin in the middle of the discs.

In our device, interchangeable and various lures (4; 11; 13) are installed on needle 3 of which, for example, for Colorado beetles there can be: lower (4) fresh potato, higher (11) high moisture capacity disk with a solution of pheromone or attractant, and above - (13) a similar disk but with juice or a solution of a protected plant, each of which

lures (4; 11; 13) are separated by moisture resistant rigid insulating rings (disks) 12 to prevent loss and mixing of liquid lures. The baits are removable and, in freshness and in accordance with their purpose, bait insects of different species, ages and sex, the developmental stage of both insects and plants. This extends the response capabilities of the device of the invention.

A comparison of the proposed device with the known ones reveals a number of advantages: only a sticky-coated disc and replaceable baits, but the rest of the reusable parts. This greatly lengthens the life of the trap; entrances in the form of pipe sections, tilted upward into the cavity of the body, represent a greater barrier to insect withdrawal, increasing the efficiency of the trap; a mesh hemispherical lid makes it easier for insects to approach the holes in the trap, gives a more free exit to the smells of baits, and makes them visible; the pyramidal placement of a series of lures (lower ones are larger, heavier, and higher - smaller and lighter) make this assembly more stable, reliable, and improve their use.
