The present invention relates to a pest trapping device, and more particularly, to a pest trapping device capable of increasing the capture rate of the pest by improving the structure.

Generally, pests refer to insects or animals that harm humans and domestic animals. Common types of pests found in confined spaces such as homes and offices include rats, cockroaches, dusters, ants, ticks, centipedes, and mosquitoes. These pests devour food and fabrics, causing considerable damage to people's lives. The feces also carry pathogens that are harmful to the body. In recent years, as these pests increase as the environment becomes more polluted, eliminating pests has become a big problem. Therefore, ordinary homes, companies or communities try to eliminate pests in various ways.

Among these pests, in order to remove flying pests such as flies, mosquitoes, moths, a device for capturing pests by attracting the pests with light and electrically attracting the attracted pests or by adhering to the sticky ones is widely used. Such pest trapping devices are particularly referred to by the term "reposer" or "insect".
