Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a pest-killing device, and in particular, provides a device that can attract and kill pests such as long-horned beetles and cuticles, which are harmful to trees and herbs, and flies and mosquitoes, which are sanitary unpleasant pests, without using an insecticide. The purpose is to do.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 In recent years, the protection of nature has become an increasingly important issue, but the damage of trees and herbs by pests is enormous every year, and there is a demand for a means for effectively eliminating those feeding and parasitic pests. There are a wide variety of pests that damage forests and fields. It is a typical one.

Conventionally, a method of spraying an insecticide has been generally used as a means for exterminating pests, but recently, the development of an attractant for various insect pests has been remarkable, and a bottle containing an attractant has been remarkably developed. Pests are efficiently exterminated by installing such items at predetermined intervals and spraying an insecticide around them. In other words, food, sex, and spawning attractants that use insect pheromones will attract pests and kill them with the sprayed insecticide. In addition, as a pest-killing method using an attractant, a flat plate-shaped container in which the insecticide is stored is provided below the place where the attractant is installed, and the insecticide is spread over a wide area without being sprayed. Has also been adopted.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 By the way, when the exterminating means using the insecticide is adopted as described above, there is a possibility that the environment of the forest is contaminated by the spraying or liquid leakage from the container, and the range of spraying is limited for the same reason. In addition, the sprayed insecticide will be washed away by rainwater when the rainy weather continues, expanding the environmental pollution range and significantly reducing the insecticidal effect.

Therefore, the present invention was created for the purpose of providing a pest-killing device that can efficiently kill pests without using an insecticide and that maintenance work thereof is extremely simple.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention employs means for attracting pests and killing them with an adhesive surface. The first invention is a state in which a pest attractant storage area is provided inside, and an attractant storage case in which a hole for communicating the inside and the outside is formed in the wall surface, and the case is covered outside the attractant storage case. In the pest killing device, a hole is formed at a position facing the hole of the case, and the catching surface case has an outer peripheral surface as an adhesive surface.

A second invention has a storage area for a pest attractant inside, and a hole for communicating the inside and the outside is formed on the wall surface thereof, and an engaging grip portion of a capture face plate is formed on the outside of the wall surface. The present invention relates to a pest killing device including a formed attractant storage case and a catching face plate whose front and back surfaces are adhesive surfaces, the ends of which are engaged with the engaging gripping portion.

[0008]

[Action]

 In the present invention, the attractant storage case releases the odor volatilized from the attractant through the hole formed in the wall surface thereof. In the first invention, the hole of the trapping surface case faces the hole of the attractant storage case, and the odor of the attractant diffuses to the outside of the trapping surface case as it is. As a result, the pests attracted by the odor of the attractant will fly around the capture surface case, but since the outer peripheral surface of the capture surface case is an adhesive surface, the pests touching the same surface will stick to the adhesive surface. It is captured by and cannot be separated due to its stickiness. As a result, the inactive pests are killed over time and removed by collecting the capture surface case. Since the trapping surface case is independent from the attractant storage case as well as the attractant, it can be replaced as appropriate when the trapping function is deteriorated.

In the second invention, the trapping face plate whose front and back faces are adhesive faces can be attached to the outside of the wall surface of the attractant storage case through the engaging and gripping mechanism, and the trapping face plate is attached. Is removable and can be freely replaced. By virtue of its configuration, the capture surface is limited to the periphery of the attractant storage case in the first device, whereas the capture face plate can be radially set to the outside of the attractant storage case in this device, and The area of the capture surface can be increased. Therefore, the flight route of the pests is not necessarily linear with respect to the attractant storage case, and the pesticidal efficiency can be improved.

【Example】

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. FIG. 1 is a sectional view of a pest trapping apparatus according to the first invention, in which 1 is an attractant storage case and 2 is a trapping surface case.

Here, the attractant storage case 1 is composed of a cap portion 3 and a body portion 4 which are molded of synthetic resin, and is formed on the female screw portion formed inside the cap portion 3 and the outside of the body portion 4. A cylindrical structure is formed by screwing the male thread portion. The cap portion 3 and the main body portion 4 do not necessarily need to be screwed and connected, but may be connected by a fitting engagement mechanism.

The main body 4 has a storage space 4a for the pest attractant therein, and also has holes 4b (four in this embodiment) for communicating the inside and the outside on the wall surface thereof. When used, the cap portion 3 is removed, and the bottle 6 containing the pest attractant 5 is stored inside the main body portion 4 with the lid open, and the cap portion 3 is screwed onto the main body portion 4. To wear. Further, on the upper surface of the cap portion 3, a protrusion-shaped suspension portion 3a having a hole is formed.

On the other hand, the capture surface case 2 is a thin hollow cylinder made of paper or resin, and its outer peripheral surface is an adhesive surface 2a coated with an adhesive. The catching surface case 2 is externally fitted to the attractant storage case 1 as shown in FIG. 2, but is in a position facing the hole 4b on the attractant storage case 1 side in the mounted state (see FIG. 1). A hole 2c is formed in the hole. In addition, an arc-shaped bending guide line 2b is formed in the upper region of the capture surface case 2, and when it is fitted onto the attractant storage case 1, the guide line 2b is formed along the bending guide line 2b. The enclosed area is bent inward so as to engage with the upper surface of the cap portion 3 as shown in FIG. Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the catching surface case 2 is provided with a cover sheet 7 which is easily peeled off from the adhesive surface 2a on the outer periphery of the catching surface case 2 when it is opposed to the bending guide line 2d in the cylinder axis direction. It is folded in a flat plate shape along with, and is deformed into a hollow cylinder at the stage of use to be fitted onto the attractant storage case 1 and finally the cover sheet 7 is peeled off.

With the above-described configuration, the pest killing device in which the attractant storage case 1 and the trapping surface case 2 are combined as shown in FIG. 1 allows a wire or the like to pass through the suspension portion 3 a of the attractant storage case 1 and It can be hung from a tree branch through a wire. In this state, the pest attractant 5 in the bottle 6 volatilizes in the attractant storage case 1 to generate an odor, and the odor is emitted from the hole 4b of the attractant storage case 1 to the outside through the hole 2c of the capture surface case 2. Diverge. Then, as shown in FIG. 1, the pest 8 attracted to the odor comes to fly around the suspended device, but when it touches the sticky surface 2a of the catching surface case 2, it separates due to its stickiness. When the insect pest 8 flaps its wings and so on, the contact area increases and it is completely captured. Naturally, the captured pests 8 will become inactive and die over time. Also, if the design of the adhesive surface 2a of the capture surface case 2 is made to have a skin texture, the pests 8 will erroneously touch the adhesive surface 2a with the surface of the tree without feeling discomfort, and the efficiency of capture can be improved. .. As described above, the pest-killing device of the present example physically kills pests without using an insecticide, but it does not necessarily have to be suspended on a tree branch or the like, and at an appropriate location. You may take the method of installing in.

By the way, since the pest attractant 5 is volatile, its attracting action is deteriorated unless it is replaced at regular intervals, and when the trap surface case 2 also catches a large number of pests 8. Since the effective capture area of the adhesive surface 2a is reduced, it must be replaced at regular intervals. Such replacement work is generally carried out in the forest because of the necessity to install this pest trapping device. Therefore, it is desirable that the replacement work can be performed easily and quickly, and that the capture surface case 2, which is a replacement product, should be as compact as possible in a non-use state due to a transportation problem.

Regarding this replacement work, in the pest trapping apparatus of the present embodiment, the used capture surface case 2 is pulled out from the attractant storage case 1 and collected, and the newly prepared capture surface case 2 is changed from a flat plate state to a cylindrical state. It suffices that the cover sheet 7 is peeled off after the cover sheet 7 is deformed to be fitted onto the attractant storage case 1 and the upper end region is bent inward along the bending guide line 2b. Also, regarding the exchange of the attractant 5, it is sufficient to open the cap portion 3 and exchange the bottle 5 therein during the exchange. It is necessary to adjust the hole 2c of the capture surface case 2 to the position of the hole 4b on the side of the attractant storage case 1 when the attractant storage case 1 is externally fitted. By doing so, the positions of the holes 2c and the holes 4b can be automatically adjusted by fitting them on the outside. Further, regarding the transportation problem, the capture surface case 2 can be folded into a flat plate shape in an unused state as shown in FIG. 2, and its adhesive surface 2a is a cover sheet that can be easily peeled off. Since 7 is covered, a large number of catch cases 2 can be carried in an extremely compact size, and a large number of exchange operations can be efficiently performed by one round of patrol.

By the way, in the case where the method of bending the upper end region of the capture surface case 2 to engage with the attractant storage case 1 as described above is adopted, the engaging force is the capture surface case 2. It is only guaranteed by the strength of bending. Therefore, when exposed to wind and rain, the catching surface case 2 may become heavy and the bent portion may expand, and the catching surface case 2 may fall out of the externally fitted state of the attractant storage case 1. It is possible.

As a countermeasure for this, a configuration as shown in FIG. 3 can be adopted. In the figure, the attractant storage case 1 has the same configuration as that shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 above, but the capture surface case 9 has a simple tubular configuration, and the outer peripheral surface thereof is the adhesive surface 9a. In addition, the hole 9b is formed in the portion of the attractant storage case 1 facing the hole 4b. The trapping surface case 9 is fixed by fitting the hollow bush 10 with a flange into the hole 4b of the attractant storage case 1 with the hole 9b facing the hole 4b of the attractant storage case 1. .. This hollow bush 10 has a cylindrical portion 10a formed in the axial direction and a sliver 10b formed at the tip thereof, so that the tip is elastically inserted into the hole 4b of the attractant storage case 1. As a result, the capture surface case 9 is fixed to the attractant storage case 1 by the tubular portion 10a and the flange portion 10c.

As a result, the capture surface case 9 is completely engaged and fixed by the engagement relationship between the hole 9b and the hollow bush 10, and even if the entire device is exposed to wind and rain, It is possible to prevent the catching surface case 9 from falling off. Further, by fitting the hollow bush 10, the communication relationship between the hole 4b of the attractant storage case 1 and the hole 9b of the capture surface case 9 is always ensured, and the pest attractant 5 is prevented by the displacement of the holes 4b and 9b. There will be no situation that would prevent the divergence of air from the outside.

Next, an embodiment of the pest killing apparatus corresponding to the second invention will be described. FIG. 4 is an external perspective view of the pest killing apparatus, in which 11 is an attractant storage case and 12 is a catch face plate. Here, the attractant storage case 11 has a structure similar to that of the attractant storage case 1 shown in the first embodiment, and is composed of the cap portion 3 and the body portion 4 and stores the attractant inside the body portion 4. In addition, the hole 4b is formed in the outer wall.

In this pest killing device, an engaging grip portion 11a for the capture face plate 12 is integrally formed on the outside of the wall surface of the main body portion 4, and the end portion of the capture face plate 12 is fixed by the engaging grip portion 11a. It is characterized in that it is designed to be gripped, and that the front and back surfaces of the capture face plate 12 are adhesive surfaces 12a. That is, in this embodiment, four trapping face plates 12 are radially set around the attractant storage case 11, and each trapping face plate 12 is detachable.

In this pest trap device, the odor of the pest attractant is emitted from the hole 4b of the attractant storage case 11 and the pest is attracted as shown in FIG. However, even if the insect pest does not reach the vicinity of the attractant storage case 11, it can be caught by touching the adhesive surface 12a of the capture face plate 12 while flying around the case 11. In general, pests have a tendency to meander and fly in the vicinity where the odor of the attractant is drifting. With this device, the catching face plate 12 is often touched during the flight stage, so the pest killing efficiency should be improved. You can Further, the area of the capture face plate 12 can be increased within a range allowed by the grip strength of the engaging grip portion 11a, and the catching efficiency can be increased also from this viewpoint.
