Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of insect control equipment technology, specifically to a remote continuous trapping and monitoring instrument for adult Aedes mosquitoes and its trapping and monitoring method. Background Technology

[0002] Chinese Patent No. CN103168760A discloses a mosquito trap, which includes a trap body comprising an opaque upper barrel and a lower barrel. A diagonal grid is provided between the upper and lower barrels. The lower barrel is divided into left and right parts; one part holds a mosquito attractant or a device that generates carbon dioxide, and the other part holds water. The upper port of the upper barrel is fitted with the upper port of a conical funnel, and the lower end of the funnel has a funnel opening. The space enclosed by the upper barrel and the conical funnel forms a cavity for mosquito trapping and egg-laying. An adhesive device for trapping mosquitoes that fly into the cavity is provided on the inner wall of the upper barrel within the cavity.

[0003] The aforementioned mosquito traps allow laboratories or monitoring institutions to obtain large quantities of fresh adult mosquitoes and complete subsequent tasks such as classification, specimen preparation, and virus detection. However, after the mosquito traps capture mosquitoes and lay eggs, they require manual collection and classification. They cannot automatically monitor the types and densities of mosquitoes and can only be identified and calculated manually. The operation is easily affected by subjective factors, including the knowledge level, experience level, and sense of responsibility of the staff, as well as environmental factors and various objective factors, resulting in inconsistent monitoring data. Especially when large-scale monitoring is required, the labor costs involved are very high. Moreover, the adhesive device can only be replaced manually after capturing mosquitoes, which not only reduces work efficiency but also further increases labor costs. The most obvious drawback is that it cannot achieve remote continuous monitoring and extermination of mosquitoes.

[0004] Therefore, further improvements are necessary. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The present invention aims to provide a remote continuous trapping and monitoring instrument for adult Aedes mosquitoes and its trapping and monitoring method, so as to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art.

[0006] A remote continuous trapping and monitoring instrument for adult Aedes mosquitoes designed for this purpose includes a base, on which a trapping bottle, a circuit control board, test strips, and a test strip replacement device are mounted.

[0007] The bait bottle is equipped with a camera and connected to a mosquito-attracting device and a drying device.

[0008] The test strip is located between the upper and lower parts of the bait bottle and is driven to be connected to the test strip replacement device.

[0009] The circuit control board is electrically connected to the mosquito attracting device, the mosquito killing device, the camera, and the test strip replacement device.

[0010] The mosquito-attracting device, controlled by the circuit control board, lures mosquitoes into the trapping bottle.

[0011] The mosquito-killing device kills mosquitoes inside the bait bottle under the control of the circuit control board.

[0012] The camera monitors the mosquitoes inside the bait bottle and / or on the test strip under the control of the circuit control board.

[0013] The filter paper replacement device is driven by the circuit control board to automatically replace the test paper.

[0014] The mosquito-attracting bottle is divided into two parts, namely the upper part and the lower part of the bottle; the mosquito-attracting device is connected to the upper part of the bottle; and the mosquito-killing device is connected to the lower part of the bottle.

[0015] The mosquito-attracting device includes a carbon dioxide generator and a control valve; the control valve is electrically connected to the circuit control board and is connected to the upper inlet of the mosquito-attracting bottle and the carbon dioxide generator through pipes.

[0016] The control valve, controlled by the circuit control board, releases an appropriate amount of carbon dioxide generated by the carbon dioxide generator as a mosquito attractant through the inlet at the top of the bottle.

[0017] The mosquito-attracting device also includes a mosquito attractant, which is connected to the control valve via a pipe.

[0018] The control valve, controlled by the circuit control board, releases the mosquito attractant as needed through the inlet at the top of the bottle.

[0019] The mosquito-killing device includes an exhaust fan, which is connected to the lower part of the bottle body via an air duct.

[0020] The exhaust fan is electrically connected to the circuit control board, and the mosquitoes inside the bait bottle are dried and killed under the control of the circuit control board.

[0021] The test strip replacement device includes a test strip holder and a roll motor.

[0022] The test strip holder is fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the trap bottle, and a paper feeding roller and a paper receiving roller are rotatably installed on it.

[0023] The test strip is mounted on the paper feeding roller, with its middle part located between the upper and lower parts of the bottle body, and its outer end wrapped around the paper receiving roller.

[0024] The reel motor is electrically connected to the circuit control board, and its drive end is driven by the paper feeding roller or the paper receiving roller.

[0025] The lower part of the bottle body is also provided with a lower bottle body driving assembly, which includes a fixed base and a top rod; the fixed base is fixedly mounted on the base; the top rod is fixedly mounted on the fixed base, and its driving end is connected to the lower part of the bottle bottom driving assembly.

[0026] The top rod is electrically connected to the circuit control board and is guided to rise and fall on the fixed base by the control of the circuit control board. When the top rod is guided to rise and fall, it drives the lower part of the bottle to rise and fall together.

[0027] When the lower part of the bottle rises, it pulls the test strip against the upper part of the bottle; when the lower part of the bottle falls, it pulls the test strip away from the upper part of the bottle.

[0028] The test strip is automatically replaced by the test strip replacement device at least when it leaves the upper part of the bottle.

[0029] The bait bottle is also equipped with an external temperature and humidity sensor for sensing the external temperature and humidity.

[0030] This remote continuous trapping and monitoring instrument for adult Aedes mosquitoes also includes a power supply device and a cloud server.

[0031] The power supply device is a built-in battery pack and / or a solar power module; the circuit control board is electrically connected to the built-in battery pack and / or the solar power module.

[0032] The circuit control board also integrates at least a microcontroller, a positioning module for acquiring positioning information, a monitoring and control module for controlling the operation of the camera, a mosquito-attracting control module for controlling the operation of the mosquito-attracting device, a mosquito-killing control module for controlling the operation of the mosquito-killing device, a test strip replacement control module for controlling the operation of the test strip replacement device, a lower box drive control module for controlling the operation of the lower drive assembly of the bottle, an external temperature and humidity sensing control module for controlling the operation of the external temperature and humidity sensor, a video or image processing module for processing the camera monitoring information, a storage unit for storing information, and a wireless signal communication module for sending the camera monitoring information, external temperature and humidity information, positioning information, and the number or name of the baiting and killing monitoring instrument to the cloud server.

[0033] The circuit control board communicates wirelessly with the cloud server through the wireless signal communication module.

[0034] A method for monitoring the trapping of adult Aedes mosquitoes using a remote continuous trapping and monitoring instrument includes the aforementioned remote continuous trapping and monitoring instrument for adult Aedes mosquitoes. Several trapping and monitoring instruments are set up according to the trapping and monitoring requirements and are placed in different trapping and monitoring locations. Each trapping and monitoring instrument has an independent number or name.

[0035] The trapping and monitoring method includes the following steps: Step 1: After setting all parameters of the trapping and monitoring instrument, the circuit control board starts up and the microcontroller initializes the system. At the same time, the circuit control board controls the top rod to descend. When the top rod descends, it drives the lower part of the bottle to descend as well. The test strip leaves the upper part of the bottle. Then, the circuit control board controls the test strip replacement device to load the test strip, so that the new test strip is rolled between the upper part and the lower part of the bottle. Step 2: The circuit control board controls the top rod to rise. When the top rod rises, it drives the lower part of the bottle to rise as well. When the lower part of the bottle rises, it drives the test strip to press against the upper part of the bottle. Step 3: The circuit control board controls the mosquito-attracting device to attract mosquitoes into the mosquito-killing bottle. Step 4: After the mosquito-trapping and monitoring instrument has induced mosquitoes for a certain period of time, the circuit control board controls the mosquito-killing device to kill the mosquitoes inside the trapping bottle. At the same time, the circuit control board controls the camera to monitor the mosquitoes inside the trapping bottle and / or on the test strip. Step 5: After the mosquito-attracting and monitoring instrument finishes attracting mosquitoes, the camera records video or takes photos to monitor and obtain monitoring information. At the same time, the external temperature and humidity sensor monitors the external temperature and humidity information of the environment where the mosquito-attracting and monitoring instrument is located, and the positioning module locates the environment where the mosquito-attracting and monitoring instrument is located. Step 6: The circuit control board stores the monitoring information, the external temperature and humidity environment information, the positioning information, and the number or name of the trapping and monitoring instrument in the storage unit. The storage unit then sends the monitoring information, the external temperature and humidity environment information, the positioning information, and the number or name of the trapping and monitoring instrument to the cloud server through the wireless signal communication module. Step 7: After receiving the monitoring information, external temperature and humidity information, location information, and the number or name of the monitoring instrument transmitted by each of the trapping and monitoring instruments, the cloud server stores the information according to a certain indexing rule, classifies and counts the various information, and performs computer intelligent identification on the camera monitoring information to identify whether the mosquito belongs to Aedes mosquito and to distinguish between male and female. Finally, the results are stored for the monitor to access through smart devices.

[0036] The present invention, through the improvement of the above-described structure, has the following advantages compared with the prior art: 1. The circuit control board controls the mosquito-attracting device to lure mosquitoes into the trap bottle, thereby enhancing the mosquito-attracting and monitoring effect of the mosquito-attracting and monitoring instrument, allowing more mosquitoes to enter the trap bottle, and improving the mosquito killing rate and monitoring rate.

[0037] 2. The circuit control board controls the camera to record or photograph mosquitoes inside the bait bottle and / or on the test strip, thereby completing the automatic monitoring of Aedes mosquitoes. This replaces the tedious manual operations such as equipment retrieval, information identification, and data calculation, which not only reduces the monitoring cost of Aedes mosquitoes but also improves work efficiency and the accuracy of monitoring results.

[0038] Third, the circuit control board controls the mosquito killing device to kill mosquitoes inside the trapping bottle, ensuring that mosquitoes inside the trapping bottle cannot fly out and that all mosquitoes inside the trapping bottle are killed. Moreover, since the killed mosquitoes will not fly around, the accuracy of video or photo monitoring by the camera can be improved, allowing the camera to better perform its monitoring work.

[0039] Fourth, the test strips after video recording or photography can be automatically replaced by the test strip replacement device, which ensures that there are new test strips available for mosquito monitoring, while avoiding the drawbacks of manual replacement of test strips in existing technologies, thereby realizing remote continuous trapping and monitoring of adult Aedes mosquitoes.

[0043] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention can be practiced in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0044] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0045] See Figures 1-3 The Aedes mosquito adult mosquito remote continuous trapping and monitoring instrument includes a base 2, on which a trapping bottle 1, a circuit control board 4, test strips, and a test strip replacement device are installed.

[0046] The bait bottle 1 is equipped with a camera 11 and is connected to a mosquito-attracting device and a drying device.

[0047] The test strip is located between the upper part 12 and the lower part 16 of the bait bottle 1 and is driven by the test strip replacement device.

[0048] The circuit control board 4 is electrically connected to the mosquito attracting device, the mosquito killing device, the camera 11, and the test strip replacement device.

[0049] The mosquito-attracting device, controlled by the circuit control board 4, lures mosquitoes into the trapping bottle 1.

[0050] The mosquito-killing device kills mosquitoes inside the bottle 1 under the control of the circuit control board 4.

[0051] The camera 11 monitors the mosquitoes inside the bait bottle 1 and / or on the test strips under the control of the circuit control board 4.

[0052] The filter paper replacement device automatically replaces the test paper by controlling the circuit control board 4.

[0053] Compared with the prior art, this embodiment has the following advantages: 1. The circuit control board 4 can control the mosquito-attracting device to attract mosquitoes into the trap bottle 1, thereby inducing mosquitoes to enter the trap bottle 1, thus improving the mosquito-attracting and monitoring instrument's ability to attract mosquitoes, allowing more mosquitoes to enter the trap bottle 1, and improving the mosquito killing rate and monitoring.

[0054] Second, the circuit control board 4 can control the camera 11 to record or photograph mosquitoes inside the bait bottle 1 and / or on the test strip, thereby completing the automatic monitoring of Aedes mosquitoes. This replaces the tedious manual operations such as equipment retrieval, information identification, and data calculation, which not only reduces the monitoring cost of Aedes mosquitoes but also improves work efficiency and the accuracy of monitoring results.

[0055] Third, the circuit control board 4 controls the mosquito killing device to kill mosquitoes inside the bait bottle 1, so that mosquitoes entering the bait bottle 1 cannot fly out, and at the same time, it can ensure that all mosquitoes inside the bait bottle 1 are killed. Moreover, since the killed mosquitoes will not fly around, the accuracy of video recording or photo monitoring by the camera 11 can be improved, allowing the camera 11 to better perform its monitoring work.

[0056] Fourth, the test strips after video recording or photography can be automatically replaced by the test strip replacement device, which ensures that there are new test strips available for mosquito monitoring, while avoiding the drawbacks of manual replacement of test strips in existing technologies, thereby realizing remote continuous trapping and killing monitoring of adult Aedes mosquitoes.

[0057] The trapping and monitoring instrument of this embodiment can be placed in one or more different areas or locations to trap and monitor adult Aedes mosquitoes in one or more different areas or locations. Each trapping and monitoring instrument has an independent number or name for easy control.

[0058] The bait bottle 1 is entirely black or mostly transparent, with an opening at the top. The area near the opening of the bait bottle 1 is black, which aligns with the mosquitoes' preference for black. The bait bottle 1 is divided into two parts, an upper part 12 and a lower part 16. The mosquito-attracting device is connected to the upper part 12, and the mosquito-killing device is connected to the lower part 16.

[0059] The mosquito-attracting device includes a carbon dioxide generator 17 and a control valve 13; the control valve 13 is electrically connected to the circuit control board 4 and is connected to the upper part 12 of the mosquito-attracting bottle and the carbon dioxide generator 17 through pipes respectively.

[0060] Control valve 13, controlled by circuit control board 4, uses carbon dioxide generated by carbon dioxide generator 17 as a mosquito attractant and releases an appropriate amount at the inlet 12 at the top of the bottle.

[0061] The mosquito attractant device also includes a mosquito attractant 18, which is connected to a control valve 13 via a pipe.

[0062] Control valve 13 releases mosquito attractant 18 as needed through the inlet 12 at the top of the bottle body under the control of circuit control board 4.

[0063] The mosquito-killing device includes an exhaust fan 3, which is connected to the lower part 16 of the bottle body via an air duct.

[0064] The exhaust fan 3 is electrically connected to the circuit control board 4, and the mosquitoes inside the bait bottle 1 are dried and killed by the control of the circuit control board 4.

[0065] In addition, in this embodiment, a position can be reserved on the base 2 to place a second attractant (such as a pheromone preparation). The second attractant (such as a pheromone preparation) is connected to the inlet 12 at the top of the bottle. Alternatively, an ultraviolet lamp can be installed at the top of the bottle 12 as an optional accessory to enhance the attraction effect. The second attractant and the ultraviolet lamp are not used during standard monitoring, but can be selected for extermination.

[0066] The test strip replacement device includes a test strip holder 15 and a roll motor 14.

[0067] The test strip holder 15 is fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the bait bottle 1, and a paper feeding roller and a paper receiving roller are rotatably installed on it.

[0068] The test strip is mounted on the paper feeding roller, with its middle part located between the upper part 12 and the lower part 16 of the bottle body, and its outer end wrapped around the paper receiving roller.

[0069] The roll motor 14 is electrically connected to the circuit control board 4, and its drive end is connected to the paper feeding roller or paper receiving roller drive.

[0070] In this embodiment, the test paper can be ordinary thin sheet filter paper. The filter paper is a flexible paper sheet that can be bent into a cylindrical shape and can be detached and mounted on the paper feeding roller.

[0071] To increase the entry rate of Aedes mosquitoes, the bait bottle 1 is made of transparent black high-density polyethylene material, which improves its durability and adapts to the light and rain conditions of the external environment for mosquito monitoring and control, thereby further increasing the entry rate of mosquitoes.

[0072] A connecting port is provided between the upper part 12 and the lower part 16 of the bottle body, and the two are connected through the connecting port. Its structure is simple and easy to produce. At the same time, the test strip is located on the connecting port, which makes it easy to photograph the captured mosquitoes.

[0073] The top opening is located on the upper part 12 of the bottle body, and a cover plate 10 is provided on the top opening.

[0074] When the mosquito-trapping and monitoring instrument attracts mosquitoes, the cover 10 is opened, the mosquito-trapping device starts working, and the mosquito-killing device can be opened in conjunction to induce and suck mosquitoes into the trapping bottle 1 from the top opening.

[0075] When the mosquito-killing and monitoring instrument is killing and monitoring mosquitoes, the cover 10 is opened and closed, and the mosquito-killing device starts to work, drying and killing the mosquitoes inside the mosquito-killing bottle 1.

[0076] Meanwhile, the cover plate 10 also facilitates the maintenance of the trapping bottle 1.

[0077] The camera 11 is an image camera or video camera, and is fixedly mounted on the side wall of the upper part 12 of the bottle or on the cover 10, facing the test strip. The camera 11 can also be equipped with a light, or the cover 10 can be equipped with a light. The light can assist the camera 11 in its operation and provide sufficient light source for the camera 11 to take pictures. The image camera or video camera can be a camera, a webcam, or a CCD. In this embodiment, in order to reduce space usage, the camera 11 is preferably a miniature camera or an endoscope. It records or photographs the mosquitoes inside the bait bottle 1 under the control of the circuit control board 4.

[0078] A bottle body lower drive assembly is also provided on the lower part 16 of the bottle body. The bottle body lower drive assembly includes a fixed seat 20 and a push rod 19. The fixed seat 20 is fixedly mounted on the base 2. The push rod 19 is fixedly mounted on the fixed seat 20, and its drive end is drivenly connected to the lower part 16 of the bottle bottom.

[0079] The top rod 19 is electrically connected to the circuit control board 4 and is guided to rise and fall on the fixed seat 20 by the control of the circuit control board 4. When the top rod 19 is guided to rise and fall, it drives the lower part 16 of the bottle to rise and fall together.

[0080] When the lower part 16 of the bottle rises, it pulls the test strip against the upper part 12 of the bottle; when the lower part 16 of the bottle falls, it pulls the test strip away from the upper part 12 of the bottle.

[0081] The test strip is automatically replaced by a test strip replacement device at least 12 minutes after it leaves the top of the bottle.

[0082] Specifically, the push rod 19 is connected to a cylinder, and its drive end is driven to the lower part of the bottle 16.

[0083] When the top rod 19 is in operation, it drives the lower part 16 of the bottle to rise onto the fixed base 20, so that the lower part 16 of the bottle moves towards the upper part 12 of the bottle and presses the test strip firmly against the bottom of the upper part 12 of the bottle. At this time, the lower part 16 of the bottle and the upper part 12 of the bottle are sealed together, the solenoid valve 13 opens, and the attractant 18 is released. The exhaust fan 3 starts working to attract and kill mosquitoes. After the mosquitoes fly into the attractant bottle 1, they cannot fly out. After a sufficient period of monitoring (controlled by the timer on the circuit control board 4), the camera 11 takes a picture.

[0084] When the top rod 19 is working, it drives the lower part 16 of the bottle to descend onto the fixed seat 20, so that the lower part 16 of the bottle moves away from the upper part 12 of the bottle and drives the test strip away from the bottom of the upper part 12 of the bottle. The test strip can be replaced and the baiting and monitoring instrument is ready to start the next round of baiting and killing.

[0085] The bait bottle 1 is also equipped with an external temperature and humidity sensor 9 for sensing the external temperature and humidity. The external temperature and humidity sensor 9 is installed on the cover plate 10 and is electrically connected to the circuit control board 4. It senses the external temperature and humidity of the environment where the bait monitoring instrument is located through the control of the circuit control board 4.

[0086] This remote continuous trapping and monitoring instrument for adult Aedes mosquitoes also includes a power supply device and a cloud server.

[0087] The power supply device is a built-in battery pack and / or a solar power module 6; the circuit control board 4 is electrically connected to the built-in battery pack and / or the solar power module 6 to provide power for the circuit control board 4.

[0088] The circuit control board 4 also integrates at least the following components: a microcontroller, a positioning module for acquiring positioning information, a monitoring and control module for controlling the operation of the camera 11, a mosquito-attracting control module for controlling the operation of the mosquito-attracting device, a mosquito-killing control module for controlling the operation of the mosquito-killing device, a test strip replacement control module for controlling the operation of the test strip replacement device, a lower box drive control module for controlling the operation of the lower drive assembly of the bottle, an external temperature and humidity sensing control module for controlling the operation of the external temperature and humidity sensor 9, a video or image processing module for processing the monitoring information of the camera 11, a storage unit 5 for storing information, and a wireless signal communication module 7 for sending the monitoring information of the camera 11, external temperature and humidity information, positioning information, and the number or name of the mosquito-attracting and killing monitoring instrument to the cloud server 5.

[0089] The circuit control board 4 communicates wirelessly with the cloud server 5 via the wireless signal communication module 7.

[0090] The circuit control board 4 can also be equipped with a latitude and longitude sensor (GPS / BeiDou positioning module). The latitude and longitude sensor (GPS / BeiDou positioning module) can perform environmental detection through the control of the circuit control board 4 to test the interaction between the environment and adult Aedes mosquitoes.

[0091] The aforementioned baiting and monitoring instruments are set up in several locations according to the baiting and monitoring needs, and each baiting and monitoring instrument has an independent number or name.

[0092] To better protect the baiting and monitoring instrument, a protective cover is installed on the base 2. The protective cover covers and protects all the components and devices of the baiting and monitoring instrument, leaving only the top opening of the bait bottle 1 and the cover plate 10 exposed.

[0093] The trapping and monitoring method includes the following steps: Step 1: After setting all parameters of the trapping and monitoring instrument, the circuit control board 4 is started and the microcontroller is powered on to initialize the system. At the same time, the circuit control board 4 controls the top rod 19 to descend. When the top rod 19 descends, it drives the lower part 16 of the bottle to descend as well. The test strip leaves the upper part 12 of the bottle. Then the circuit control board 4 controls the test strip replacement device to load the test strip, so that the new test strip is rolled between the upper part 12 and the lower part 16 of the bottle. Step 2: The circuit control board 4 controls the top rod 19 to rise. When the top rod 19 rises, it drives the lower part 16 of the bottle to rise as well. When the lower part 16 of the bottle rises, it drives the test strip to press against the upper part 12 of the bottle. Step 3: The circuit control board 4 controls the solenoid valve 13 to open, releasing mosquito attractant 18 at the inlet of the bottle 1. At the same time, the exhaust fan 3 starts working to start the mosquito attraction work. After the mosquitoes fly into the mosquito trapping bottle 1, they cannot fly out due to the pressure generated by the exhaust fan 3. Step 4: After the mosquito-trapping and monitoring instrument has induced mosquitoes for a certain period of time, the circuit control board 4 controls the mosquito-killing device to kill the mosquitoes inside the bait bottle 1. At the same time, the circuit control board 4 controls the camera 11 to monitor the mosquitoes inside the bait bottle 1. Step 5: After the mosquito-attracting and monitoring instrument finishes attracting mosquitoes, the camera 11 records video or takes photos to monitor and obtain monitoring information. At the same time, the external temperature and humidity sensor 9 monitors the external temperature and humidity information of the environment where the mosquito-attracting and monitoring instrument is located, and the positioning module 7 locates the environment where the mosquito-attracting and monitoring instrument is located. Step 6: The circuit control board 4 stores the monitoring information, external temperature and humidity environment information, location information, and the number or name of the trapping and monitoring instrument into the storage unit. The storage unit then sends the monitoring information, external temperature and humidity environment information, location information, and the number or name of the trapping and monitoring instrument to the cloud server 5 through the wireless signal communication module 7. Step 7: After receiving the monitoring information, external temperature and humidity information, location information, and the number or name of the monitoring instrument transmitted by each baiting and killing instrument, the cloud server 5 stores the information according to certain indexing rules, classifies and counts the various information, and the cloud server video 5 performs computer intelligent identification on the monitoring information of the camera 11 to identify whether the mosquito belongs to Aedes mosquito and to distinguish between male and female. Finally, the results are stored for the monitor to call through smart devices.

[0094] In step seven, the data is stored according to certain indexing rules, at least by classifying and storing each trapping and monitoring instrument by its unique number or name.

[0095] In step seven, various information is classified and counted, including video or photographic information from the monitoring information. After image or picture segmentation and feature extraction, the video or photographic information is input into a neural network classifier, which then classifies and counts it.

[0096] The aforementioned neural network classifier stores at least the classification features of adult mosquitoes.

[0097] In steps four and five, the inside of the bait bottle 1 may attract other insects besides mosquitoes. The camera 11 will record or photograph them. After receiving these images, the cloud server will exclude the monitoring information of these insects to automatically identify whether they are mosquitoes and calculate the number of mosquitoes.

[0098] In this embodiment, the working time of the camera 11, the working time of the external temperature and humidity sensor 9, the working time of the positioning module, and the working time of the storage unit are all controlled by a timer.

[0099] The camera 11 can be controlled by a timer to control the amount of information recorded or photographed.

[0100] The external temperature and humidity sensor 9 can be controlled by a timer to obtain temperature and humidity information at different time periods.

[0101] The positioning module can be controlled by a timer to obtain the positioning information of the trapping and monitoring instrument.

[0102] The storage unit can be controlled by a timer to store monitoring information, temperature and humidity information, location information, and the number or name of the snare monitoring instrument within a certain period of time.

[0103] The circuit control board 4 sends the monitoring information to the cloud server, which then stores, classifies, and counts this information. This allows for the automatic identification of collected mosquitoes and the calculation of necessary monitoring indicators for subsequent use by the monitor. Because the identification, classification, and storage are handled by the cloud server, the problem of extensive manual labor can be solved, especially the severe lack of professional mosquito identification personnel in grassroots monitoring units. This greatly improves monitoring results, reduces the instability of manual monitoring, and further lowers the cost of mosquito monitoring.

[0104] Furthermore, the mosquito trapping and monitoring instrument does not require any human intervention during operation and can provide continuous monitoring data for months or even years, thereby greatly improving the intelligence and convenience of remote mosquito monitoring. At the same time, the operation of the mosquito trapping and monitoring instrument is not affected by various subjective and objective factors, and the data obtained is more stable and reliable, thus assisting decision-makers in making more scientific decisions.

[0105] The above describes the preferred embodiments of the present invention, illustrating and describing the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of the invention. Various changes and modifications can be made to the invention without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the present invention as defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
