FLY-PAPER.
J1EECII'IC'ATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 360,957, dated April 12, 1887.
7 Application filed June 21, 1 886.
. skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use it, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form a part of this specification.
My invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in What is known as flypaper; and it consists of the devices and their combinations, as more fully hereinafter de-' scribed, and more particularly pointed outin the claims.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a view in perspective illustrating my invention; Fig. 2, a
sectional view of the wafer, showing its position when the package is folded.
This invention relates to that class of flypapers where a sticky or adhesive material is applied to a background.
Hereto'fore the background has ordinarily consisted of a sheet of paper,'the adhesive substance being ordinarily a mixture of resin and castor-oil.
'heretofore applied it has been found that the mixture enters the pores of the paper, penetrates the same to such a degree as to render the paper more or less sticky upon its face opposite to that upon which the mixture is applied. This has been found to be a serious detriment, for the reason that the manufacturers have frequently had quantities of such fly-paper thrown upontheir hands by the jobbers, for the reason that the mixture has penetrated the paper and rendered its opposite side sticky, different sheets of paper sticking together, rendering it difficult to handle and unpleasant for use.
My invention is designed to remedy this difficulty heretofore existing, andto provide In the 7 Serial No. 205,848. (No model.)
a fly-paper in which there will be no liability whatever of the mixture penetrating the background upon which it is applied, overcoming effectually any danger of the opposite surface of the background becomingsticky on account of any penetration, so making my improved tly-paper an article readily and pleasantly handled at all times.
I have found that instead of using ordinary paper for the background to which the adhesive mixture is applied, that when said mixture is applied to a background consisting of parchment-paper all tendency for the mixture to penetrate the background is entirely obviated, and that the mixture will not penetrate the parchment-paper even under a very considerable degree of heat, the parchmentpaper being found to be completely impervioils to the penetration of the mixture, so that when the mixture is applied to a sheet of parchment-paper the sheet may be folded for handling. The parchment -'paper never becomes sticky upon its face opposite to that on which the mixture is applied, and so all difficulty is overcome which has heretofore existed, as above narrated.
The sheets are, it is understood, folded intermediate of their edges, so that the mixture is folded inward, and packages of the article so constructed and folded may be packed and handled by the trade, and also by the consumer, freely, without anyliability whatever of their sticking together, or upon anyarticle upon which they may belocated, warm weather having no effect in producing any penetration "of the mixture through the parchment-paper. My improvement thus prevents the spoiling of the goods, which has heretofore resulted when they have been kept on hand by the jobber for many days. 7
Myinvention contemplates, also, the remedy of this difficulty, which I accomplish by turna ing the border around the edge of the sheet of parchment-paper, as shown at a, A being the parchmentpaper and B indicating the adheuse the folded border will naturally be raised more or less, effectually preventing the spread of the mixture from ott the parchment-paper, so that the sheet may be located even upon an incline without danger of the mixture run ning ofi". Furthermore, it has been found difficult heretofore to combine with a compound composing the adhesive mixture various substances which might be used to attract the flies to the paper, for the reason that such substances have been found either to granulate the compound or to harden it. and thus rendering it inefficient; but I have discovered a way in which to apply to the fiy-paper a wa' fer provided with a substance calculatedto attract the flies-such as a saccharine matter. Accordingly, in the drawings, 0 represents a water, which I prefer to construct of two sections, 0 0', preferably concave on their inner surfaces, so as to hold a desirable quantity of said saccharine matter. The two sections of this wafer may be engaged with the adhesive mixture upon one of their respective faces upon opposite parts of the folded sheet, so that when the sheet is folded the two sections 0 C will embrace the saccharine-matter between them. Theadhesion of the mixture upon the parchment-paper being greater than that between the saccharine matter of the two sections, permits the sheet being opened out, the two sections being thus separated from each other, as shown in Fig. 1, leaving the attractive substance exposed. The wafers are made of sized paper, such as common Manila paper, coated on both sides with aglue size, and holding between them, when folded, a small quantity of honey or other suitable substance to attract the flies, The wafers are preferably located near the margin, so that if they should not separate readily to leave the open parts on each side they can easily be reached by the finger-nail, and thus be opened.
It is evident that a border, folded in this manner, and the application of the wafer may be employed irrespective of the material of 5 which the background is composed.
What I claim is- 1. A fly-paper consisting of a folded sheet of parchment-paper, the adjacent pages of the parchment-paper provided with an adhesive compound spread thereon, the construction being such that said pages may adhere when folded and be opened to expose said compound, substantially as described.
2. A fly-paper consisting of the combination, withabackground of suitable material, of an adhesive compound spread thereon upon one of its faces, said background having its edges folded to form a raised border, substantially as and for the purpose described.
3. A fly-paper consisting ofa sheet of parchment provided with an adhesive compound spread upon one of the faces, the border of said parchment-paper being folded to form a raised edge about said compound, substantially as and for the purpose described.
4. A flypapcr consisting of a background of any suitable materialprovided with an adhesive compound upon one of its faces, having in combination therewith a wafer provided with a saccharine or equivalent fly-attracting material, substantially as described.
5. A fly-paper consisting of the combination, with a background of any suitable material provided with an adhesive compound applied thereto, of adhering wafers located so as to come in contact upon folding said backgiouud at the center, said wafers provided with an attractive substance, substantially as described.
In testimony whereof I sign this specification in the presence of two witnesses.
