Abstract:
An insect trap, particularly suited to trapping fleas, comprises a flat, shallow rectangular pan adapted for resting on the floor, flypaper or other sticky substance confined in the pan for trapping the insects, a rectangular light reflecting cover, wire-formed leg members adapted to resiliently grasp selected edges of the pan in fixed positions and support the cover over the pan, and an electrically energized light source suspended from the light reflecting underside of the cover so as to lure insects to the pan by means of both reflected light and directly radiated light. The color of light seen by the insect may be modified by changing the color of the cover, the light source or the reflective surface.
