Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pest control technology, and in particular to an adult mosquito monitoring and trapping device. Background Technology

[0002] Many mosquito-borne infectious diseases, such as malaria and dengue fever, pose a serious threat to human health. Therefore, controlling mosquito populations is of great importance in preventing these diseases.

[0003] Currently, mosquito killers primarily utilize two technologies: attraction and killing. The attraction component leverages mosquitoes' phototaxis. Mosquitoes are strongly attracted to specific wavelengths of light (especially ultraviolet light around 365nm). Mosquito attractants are chemical substances or mixtures that attract mosquitoes by mimicking human odors or physiological characteristics. Common active ingredients in mosquito attractants include myristic acid, carbon dioxide, trimethylamine, ammonium bicarbonate / ferric bicarbonate, ethyl acetate, and acetone. Mosquito killers attract and kill mosquitoes by emitting light of specific wavelengths or by using attractants.

[0004] Commonly used mosquito killers in the current technology include:

[0005] (1) Electric mosquito killers use the attraction of mosquitoes to light sources to lure them closer and then kill them with a high-voltage electric grid. There is a risk of electric shock, and they produce noise and a burnt smell when in operation, and may also kill beneficial insects (such as predatory insects).

[0006] (2) The light trapping device has a single ultraviolet spectrum (usually the 365nm band), poor resistance to attenuation, and its attraction efficiency for daytime active mosquito species such as Aedes albopictus is less than 30%.

[0007] (3) Chemical mosquito control involves directly spraying toxic chemical agents to quickly kill mosquitoes. However, the large-scale spraying of chemical agents leads to increased mosquito resistance, pollutes the environment, and affects human health.

[0008] (4) Active airflow device: It uses the principle of wind suction to suck mosquitoes into a closed space and kill them by air drying. It relies on fans or vacuum pumps, which consumes a lot of energy. When using solar panels for power, the outdoor time is short and the equipment is prone to failure, resulting in high operating costs.

[0009] For scenarios without electricity or with low electrical current (such as green areas in residential communities and office areas, parks, scenic spots, military outposts, etc.), there is an urgent need to develop adult mosquito trapping products that are zero-energy, fast-acting, and long-lasting, in order to solve the problem of the current mosquito control system's heavy reliance on chemical control.

[0028] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the adult mosquito monitoring and trapping device of this utility model. Detailed Implementation

[0029] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments described below are intended to facilitate the understanding of the present invention and do not constitute any limitation thereof.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the adult mosquito monitoring and trapping device of this utility model mainly consists of two parts: the attraction unit 1 and the trapping unit 2.

[0031] The lure unit 1 includes a trap box 14 with an opening at the top, which is sealed with a lid 13. Several ventilation holes are provided on the bottom wall of the trap box 14, and an attractant bottle 17 for holding attractants is provided at the bottom of the trap box 14.

[0032] A solar panel 11 for photovoltaic power generation is connected to the top of the box cover 13 via a bracket 12. A fan 15 is installed inside the trap box 14, and the solar panel 11 supplies power to the fan 15.

[0033] The trapping unit 2 is a sticky plate. A slot 16 is provided on the outer wall of the trap box 14 for fixing the sticky plate to trap adult mosquitoes that fly towards or land on the outer surface of the trap box 14. The sticky plate can be replaced at any time.

[0034] The top of the trap box 14 is provided with a hook 18 to facilitate hanging the trapping device on a tree branch or support.

[0035] The bottom of the trap box 14 is provided with a groove for connecting to the support frame 19, so as to fix the device at a certain height on the ground.

[0036] The trap box 14 is black, purple, blue, white, or other colors. The trap box 14 is round, triangular, square, or polygonal.

[0037] This invention relates to an adult mosquito monitoring and trapping device that works in conjunction with an adult mosquito attractant. Any commercially available adult mosquito attractant can be used. In use, the attractant is placed inside the attractant bottle 17 of the trapping box 14, and the sticky plate is secured in the slot 16 on the outer wall of the trapping box 13, with the adhesive side facing outwards. The adult mosquito trapping device is then suspended on a tree branch or support, or fixed to the ground to trap adult mosquitoes. The fan 15 is turned on to allow the attractant to diffuse from the ventilation holes at the bottom of the trapping box 14. When adult mosquitoes in the environment are attracted by the attractant, they are stuck to the sticky plate surrounding the trapping box 14, thus achieving the effect of trapping and killing adult mosquitoes. The sticky plate should be replaced promptly when most of it is covered with dead adult mosquitoes. The attractant should also be replaced promptly when more than 99% of it has evaporated, so that the adult mosquito trapping device can continue to effectively trap and kill adult mosquitoes.

[0038] The embodiments described above provide a detailed explanation of the technical solution and beneficial effects of this utility model. It should be understood that the above descriptions are only specific embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model. Any modifications, additions, and equivalent substitutions made within the scope of the principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
