The invention discloses an
ant collecting
barrel, an
ant collecting device and an
ant collecting method. A collecting
barrel comprises a
barrel body, an air inlet formed in the top of the barrel body and an air suction opening formed in the bottom of the barrel body; a collecting
nest used for collecting ants and a hollow supporting plate used for supporting the collecting
nest are arranged between the air inlet and the air suction port. Baits are placed in the collecting
nest, and an opening of the collecting nest penetrates through the hollowed-out supporting plate and extends to the bottom of the barrel body; hollowed-out holes of the hollowed-out supporting plate can allow ants to pass through; gauze allowing air to pass through is arranged at the air suction opening. The suspended collection nest is additionally arranged in the collection barrel, after ants are sucked into the collection barrel, the ants are actively separated from sundries sucked into the barrel together with the ants due to the upward climbing
habit of the ants and the attraction of bait in the collection nest, the ants are autonomously collected in the collection nest, the phenomenon that workers find the ants in a sundry
pile in the later period is avoided, and the labor intensity of workers is reduced. And the initiative and the convenience of the suction type collection device are kept.
