Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This utility model relates to a mosquito collection device, and more particularly to an electric mosquito catcher. [Background Technology]

[0002] Mosquito-borne infectious diseases are diseases transmitted from hosts to humans by mosquitoes. These include dengue fever, malaria, yellow fever, West Nile fever, Japanese encephalitis, and filariasis. These diseases cause enormous harm to humans, seriously impacting human politics, economics, and physical health. Monitoring mosquito vectors is crucial for understanding mosquito population composition, density fluctuations, and geographical distribution, providing a basis for scientifically developing mosquito control measures. Furthermore, it can provide early warnings during mosquito-borne infectious disease outbreaks, making it essential for the prediction, prevention, and risk analysis of mosquito-borne infectious diseases.

[0003] Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus are the main vectors of diseases such as dengue fever. Starting in June 2014, dengue fever outbreaks occurred in many parts of Guangdong Province. In order to establish a dengue fever epidemic early warning system, it is necessary to conduct adult mosquito density surveys using indoor habitat rates for Aedes aegypti and using human tent traps for Aedes albopictus.

[0004] Utility model patent CN201820384177.X discloses a mosquito collection device. The mosquito collection device includes a protective suit and a mosquito trap. The mosquito trap includes a cover ring, a handle fixed to the cover ring, an electric fan, a cylindrical mesh, a funnel-shaped mesh, a power switch, and a battery. The electric fan is installed in the cover ring and connected to the power switch installed on the handle. The power switch is connected to the battery via a wire. The upper ends of the cylindrical and funnel-shaped meshes are fixed below the cover ring, with the funnel-shaped mesh located inside the cylindrical mesh, its smaller end facing downwards and including an opening. The wire is a flexible cord. The mosquito collection protective suit includes a pocket for holding the battery, which is placed inside the pocket.

[0005] The battery of this invention is placed in the pocket of the mosquito-collecting protective clothing and connected to the mosquito trap by a soft wire. However, the mosquito trap is inconvenient to carry and operate. [Summary of the Invention]

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide an electric mosquito catcher that does not require connection to an external battery via a cord and is easy to carry and operate.
