Detailed Implementation
[0027] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that these descriptions are for the purpose of aiding understanding of this utility model, but do not constitute a limitation thereof. Furthermore, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0028] Crops are inevitably affected by pests. Traditional solutions include spraying pesticides on crops or placing electric traps on farmland to kill pests. However, using pesticides damages the soil ecosystem and can easily lead to excessive pesticide residues in crops, which is detrimental to the environment. Electric traps require electricity, making them inconvenient to use outdoors, and their complex structure also presents challenges in operation.
[0029] The technical solution of this application provides a simple pest trap, which solves the problems of inconvenient manufacturing and use and environmental pollution during the pest control process in the prior art. The collection chamber 100 is filled with a mixed solution 400 containing an attractant 420, and a guide channel 300 is provided on the outer wall of the collection chamber 100, which achieves the beneficial effects of being easy to manufacture and use and being green and environmentally friendly.
[0030] The overall concept of the implementation scheme of the present invention to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows:
[0031] A simple pest trap, such as Figure 1 As shown, a collection chamber 100 from a household container (such as a soda bottle or mineral water bottle) is used. The volume of the collection chamber 100 is preferably 100-2000ml. A guide channel 300 is provided on the outer wall of the collection chamber 100. The guide channel 300 is formed by cutting a notch in the wall of the household container, and it is a one-way guide channel, guiding from the outside of the collection chamber 100 to the inside of the collection chamber 100. The collection chamber 100 contains a mixed solution 400, which consists of oil 410 and an attractant 420. The height of the mixed solution 400 is lower than that of the guide channel 300. These and other technical means enable the attraction device to be completed by cutting and pushing the discarded household container inward to form the guide channel 300 and then adding the mixed solution 400. The pests are attracted by the mixed solution 400 containing the attractant 420 and enter the collection chamber 100 through the guide channel 300 and become trapped in the collection chamber 100. When the pests trapped in the collection chamber 100 fly to the mixed solution 400, they drown in the mixed solution 400.
[0032] A guide channel 300 is formed by pushing the cut in the wall of a soda bottle or mineral water bottle inward. The length of the cut is 1-2 cm, preferably 1.5 cm. A pest trap is then made by filling the trap with a mixed solution 400 containing an attractant 420. No pesticides or external power supply are required when trapping pests.
[0033] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0034] Example 1
[0035] A simple pest trap, such as Figure 2As shown, the device includes a collection chamber 100 and a cover 200: the cover 200 covers the opening of the collection chamber 100; the opening is located at the top of the collection chamber 100; a guide channel 300 is provided on the outer wall of the collection chamber 100, the guide channel 300 is a one-way guide channel 300, its direction is to guide from the outside of the collection chamber 100 to the inside of the collection chamber 100; the material in the collection chamber 100 comes from a daily-use container, and the guide channel 300 is formed by a cut in the container wall of the daily-use container, the guide channel 300 is a one-way guide channel formed by a cross-shaped cut 310 extending into the collection chamber 100; the collection chamber 100 contains a mixed solution 400, the mixed solution 400 is composed of oil 410 and attractant 420, and the height of the mixed solution 400 is lower than the guide channel 300.
[0036] The mixed solution 400 comprises brine 420, attractant 420, and edible oil 410, as per the prior art, to form a top-to-bottom layer of oil 410 and a brine 420 / attractant mixture layer; the attractant 420 is a sex-selective trap to attract pests of the opposite sex. The brine 420 helps inhibit the growth of bacteria or microorganisms. The oil 410 floats on the surface of the mixed solution 400 to prevent the attractant 420 from easily evaporating.
[0037] Example 2
[0038] To further prevent pests from escaping the trap by walking backwards, such as Figure 3 As shown, the simple pest trap includes a collection chamber 100 and a cover 200: the cover 200 covers the opening of the collection chamber 100; the opening is located at the top of the collection chamber 100; a guide channel 300 is provided on the outer wall of the collection chamber 100, the guide channel 300 is a one-way guide channel 300, its direction is to guide from the outside of the collection chamber 100 to the inside of the collection chamber 100; the material in the collection chamber 100 comes from a daily container, and the guide channel 300 is formed by slits in the container wall of the daily container, the guide channel 300 is a one-way guide channel formed by cross-shaped slits 320 extending into the collection chamber 100; the collection chamber 100 is filled with a mixed solution 400, the mixed solution 400 is composed of oil 410 and attractant 420, the height of the mixed solution 400 is lower than the guide channel 300 to avoid outflow.
[0039] To further prevent pests from escaping the trap, the inner wall of the collection chamber 100 is coated with a petroleum jelly coating 110 to form a smooth surface on the inner wall of the collection chamber 100.
[0040] When pests enter the collection chamber 100 and try to leave, they are blocked by the one-way guide channel formed by the cross-shaped slits 320. Even if pests try to crawl away from the inner wall of the collection chamber 100, the petroleum jelly coating 110 forms a smooth surface on the inner wall, causing the pests to slide into the mixed solution 400 and drown in the mixed solution 400.
[0041] Example 3
[0042] To further improve the ease of use of the trap, such as Figure 4 As shown, a suspension 500 is fixed to the top of the collection cavity 100 below the cover 200. The suspension 500 is preferably a metal wire. One end of the metal wire is fixed to the bottom of the cover 200, and the other end of the suspension 500 is fixed to an external object, including trees, crops or trellises.
[0043] To enhance the attraction of pests, a suspension 500 extending into the collection chamber is fixed inside the cover 200. One end of the suspension 500 is fixed in the cover 200, and the other end of the suspension 500 extending towards the mixed solution 400 is connected to an attractant tube 600, which contains an attractant 420.
[0044] The pests are attracted by the attractant 420 and the mixed solution 400 contained in the attractant tube 600, so as to capture more pests.
[0045] The embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but this utility model is not limited to the described embodiments. For those skilled in the art, various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model, and these variations still fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
