Description

Trap for catching two-winged insects on baits suitable for dry preparation

Field of technology

The solution concerns a two-winged insect trap with a new construction, which can be used to catch insects on various types of baits and with the need to prepare the material dry.

Prior art

A number of traps are used to catch insects with the help of various types of baits (beer, wine, fruit, meat). In all modifications, the insect comes into direct contact with the bait, which also often serves as a fixation medium. Insects captured in this way are contaminated with the bait medium, they are degraded and the preparation of the material collected in this way is very difficult, if not completely impossible. Two-winged insects in particular are very damaged by this trapping method, which is undesirable.

The essence of the invention

The above-mentioned drawbacks are eliminated by a trap for catching two-winged insects on baits suitable for dry preparation, consisting of a collecting vessel, a bait vessel and four funnels, according to the invention, which consists in two cylinders with different bottoms of different sizes, and from an external collecting vessel fitted with a screw cap with a filling hole and an internal bait vessel with bait with a minimum diameter equal to a maximum of half the diameter of the external collecting vessel and a minimum height of 1 cm higher than the bottom edge of the funnel holes and covered with dense a maximum of 5 cm from the upper screw cap are crossed four holes in the range of diameters from 15 to 40 mm, where the holes of the outer container are inserted funnels of at least 10 mm and a maximum of 20 mm into the inner space of the outer container and the wider side diameter funnel is from 5 to 15 cm. In the space between the two containers, the preservative liquid is poured from at least one third and at most to the lower edge of the funnel openings.

The trap according to the invention is characterized in that the inner bait container is inserted into the outer collecting container so that their central axes coincide.

The trap according to the invention is further characterized in that the collecting container and the bait container are made of a water-resistant material, in particular plastic.

The trap according to the invention is also characterized in that the outer collecting container has a minimum diameter of 15 cm and a minimum height of 30 cm.

The catcher according to the invention is also characterized in that the funnels are secured against unintentional falling out of the openings.

The essence of the trap for catching two-winged insects on baits suitable for dry preparation according to the invention thus lies in the possibility of easily creating a functional device which does not contaminate or damage the collected material, which is then easy to dry prepare. The advantage of the trap according to the invention is easy installation in the field, its hanging in the space, low cost of acquisition of the trap, low weight, easy operation and prevention of contamination and damage to the collected insects.

Explanation of the drawing

In the accompanying drawing, FIG. 1 is a side view of a trap for trapping two-winged insects on baits suitable for dry preparation according to the invention.

The trap according to the invention was successfully tested in experiments at the Czech University of Life Sciences in Prague, Czech Republic.

Examples of embodiments of the invention

Example 1

The trap for catching two-winged insects for baits suitable for dry preparation according to the invention consists of an outer collecting container 1 in the shape of a solid bottom, a filling hole 6 and a screw lid 7. In it is inserted a bait container 2 in the shape of a solid bottom and an upper opening covered with a thick with a net 9 with a maximum diameter of half the diameter of the outer collecting container 1 and a minimum height higher than the height of the lower edge of the funnel openings 3. The openings 3 for the funnels 4 are made crosswise against each other at the highest possible height from the bottom of the outer collecting container 1. the funnels 4 are inserted and it is suitable to secure them against spontaneous falling out of the openings 3. Preservative liquid 5 is poured into the outer collecting container 1 by at least one third through the filling upper opening and at most to the lower edge of the openings 3 for funnels 4. The inner container 2 is filled with bait 8 (fermenting fruit, rotting meat, beer, etc.) and closed with a thick net 9. The trap is then hung by the handle 10. The complete trap thus assembled according to the invention, it is then best possible to fasten it by hanging in the space of the planned insect trap.

Industrial applicability

A trap for catching two-winged insects on baits suitable for dry preparation consisting of an outer and an inner container and four funnels is suitable for catching two-winged insects at various locations. The construction prevents direct contact of the insect with the bait and thus its contamination and damage is minimized. The insect is directly fixed in the preservative liquid and its dry preparation is then problem-free.
