Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of pest capture in tea tree protection, in particular to a pest trap used for tea planting. Background Art

[0002] In the agricultural planting industry, especially in the process of tea planting, with the increase in output, pests and diseases are becoming more and more serious, causing serious production losses to tea and a decline in tea yield and quality. Based on this, tea farmers often use pesticides to prevent and control pests. For a long time, due to the large-scale application of pesticides, the resistance of tea garden pests has increased, making them difficult to kill. In addition, there may be drug residues that affect the quality and safety of tea, which is not conducive to people's health. Excessive pesticides will also have certain adverse effects on the ecological environment. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a pest trap for tea planting, which can better trap pests in tea gardens, is more convenient to use, and does not pollute the environment.

[0004] The present invention provides a pest trap for tea planting, comprising a trap frame and an LED lamp. A bracket is provided at the upper end of the trap frame, and the bracket is used to clamp the LED lamp. An insect trap plate with sex pheromones sprayed on the surface is provided inside the trap frame. A heating source is provided on one side of the insect trap plate, and the heating source is used to make the sex pheromones evaporate faster and farther. A mesh cover for trapping pests is provided on the outside of the trap frame, and a circular hole is opened at the bottom of the mesh cover.

[0005] Furthermore, the sex pheromone is a female pheromone. The sex pheromone is selected according to the type of pests to be controlled, and is applied to the insect attraction plate to achieve the effect of trapping male insects.

[0006] Furthermore, the bottom of the trap frame is provided with supporting legs.

[0007] Furthermore, the trap frame is cylindrical.

[0008] Furthermore, the insect trap is a hollow cylinder made of blue and yellow rectangular panels. It is placed in the center of the trap frame. Insects are sensitive to certain colors and often fly towards objects of these colors. Insects have a strong tendency to fly towards yellow and blue. Based on this tendency, the yellow and blue insect traps are used to lure pests into the trap, where they lose their freedom of flight, thereby achieving the purpose of pest control.

[0009] Furthermore, the surface of the insect attracting plate is made of smooth material, and the non-stick insect attracting plate can be recycled and reused for a long time.

[0010] Furthermore, the wavelength of the yellow color is 575nm±10nm, and the wavelength of the blue color is 465nm±10nm.

[0011] Furthermore, the female pheromone is sprayed on the inner surface of the hollow cylinder and the heating source is placed on the outside of the hollow cylinder, so as to achieve the maximum volatilization effect of the sex pheromone inside the insect attracting plate.

[0012] Furthermore, the heating source is a semiconductor heating element, which can heat the space and is safe to use, and has advantages such as insulation, pressure resistance, and flame retardancy. By heating the female pheromone on the insect attractant plate, the female pheromone can evaporate faster and farther, thereby attracting more pests.

[0013] Furthermore, a rain cover is provided on the top of the trap frame to protect the trap from sunlight and rain.

[0014] Beneficial effects:

[0015] The present invention uses LED lights to emit light stimulation, which stimulates organisms to respond to light. Insects, for example, are phototactic, and thus fly toward light sources. This light-attracting tendency is exploited to lure insects into the trap, thereby achieving an insect repellent effect. Sex pheromones are a type of insect pheromone that serves as a communication channel between insects of the same species during courtship, foraging, and roosting. Insect pheromones are secreted and released by insects, attracting members of the opposite sex and triggering reproductive responses such as seeking mates and directional courtship and mating. Synthetic female pheromones are released in tea gardens to lure male insects into the trap, preventing them from mating. This reduces the number of pests and also reduces the number of future generations. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0024] Example 1

[0025] A pest trap for tea cultivation, such as Figure 1-3As shown, it includes a cylindrical trap frame 1 and an LED lamp 2. The bottom of the trap frame 1 is provided with a support leg 7, and the upper end of the trap frame 1 is provided with a bracket 3. The bracket 3 is used to clamp the LED lamp 2. A hollow cylindrical insect trap plate 4 spliced by yellow and blue insect trap plates is surrounded by the center of the trap frame 1. The bottom of the trap frame 1 is provided with a base plate 10. A circular hole slightly smaller than the diameter of the hollow cylindrical insect trap plate 4 is opened in the middle of the base plate 10. The hollow cylindrical insect trap plate 4 is mounted above the circular hole and the inner surface of the hollow cylindrical insect trap plate 4 is sprayed with female pheromone (the sex pheromone on the insect trap plate is a sex pheromone for pests such as false-eyed green leafhoppers, whiteflies, thrips in tea gardens, aggregation pheromones or plant element pheromones), and a semiconductor heating plate 8 is attached to the outside of the hollow cylindrical insect trap plate 4. The semiconductor heating plate 8 can heat up the space, is safe to use, and has the advantages of insulation, pressure resistance, and flame retardancy. By heating the female pheromones on the trap 4, they evaporate faster and farther, attracting more pests. The trap frame 4 is equipped with a mesh 5 for trapping pests. The bottom of the mesh 5 is provided with a circular aperture 6, which allows pests to enter the trap. The yellow trap has a wavelength of 575nm ± 10nm, while the blue has a wavelength of 465nm ± 10nm. The yellow trap has a wider range of insects, while the blue trap is more targeted. Combining the two traps significantly improves the effectiveness of trapping pests. Tea gardens are home to a wide variety of pests, and different pests exhibit varying color preferences, such as the tea leafhopper's preference for yellow and thrips' preference for blue. This difference in insect preference can be problematic in pest control, making it more effective to combine yellow and blue traps into a hollow cylindrical trap. A rain cover 9 is also provided on the top of the trap frame 1 to protect the trap from being exposed to the sun and rain, thereby increasing the service life of the trap.

[0026] Working principle:

[0027] The present invention provides a trap for capturing small pests such as the tea leafhopper, tea geometrid, and thrips in tea gardens. A hollow cylindrical trap composed of yellow and blue attractant panels surrounds the center of the trap. A semiconductor heating element is attached to the outer surface of the hollow cylindrical trap. Pheromone is sprayed on the inner surface of the hollow cylindrical trap. The heating element generates heat, catalyzing the pheromone to maximize pest attraction. The colored hollow cylindrical trap also attracts pests. Furthermore, to survive, pests must actively graze to locations with room temperature; in other words, they exhibit thermotaxis. By utilizing the heat generated by both LED lights and the semiconductor heating element, pests can be effectively lured. The combination of these four elements leverages color, pheromone, light, and temperature to attract pests, luring them through a circular hole and into the trap, significantly increasing the trap's effectiveness. The trap is covered with a fine, transparent mesh to prevent escape. A rain shield protects the trap from both sun and rain. When used in a tea garden, the trap is placed between two tea leaves. After control, the captured pests are returned to the garden as fertilizer, allowing the trap to be reused.

[0028] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
