Abstract

Insect trap comprising at least one space enclosed by a shell (1) with at least one access opening (2) into the room and with at least one attractant (9) for insects arranged or to be arranged in the enclosed space, characterized in that at least the shell (1 ) of the enclosed space or, in the case of a multi-layered or partially multi-layered shell (1), at least one layer or partial layer of one or more combined raw materials which is biodegradable.

Description

The invention relates to an insect trap, in particular a wasp trap.

Wasp traps are known. So will in the CH 42984 A a sheet metal container described, the lid is provided with a sieve and has the downwardly tapered down so that the wasps can get into the container but not back out. A lure is used to attract the wasps. In the DE 10 2005 054 363 B3 a wasp trap is described with a bait compartment, a wasp catch compartment connected thereto via a bayonet lock, and a wasp trap entrance located in the area of a wasp trap compartment top.

The wasp trap after DE 299 11 481 U1 has two inlets.

In addition to the above-mentioned metal container also wasp traps have been proposed from a plastic ( DE 295 11 836 U1 . DE 79 15 261 U1 ).

While in most wasp traps the trapped wasps drown, in the DE 202 11 201 U1 proposed a metal or plastic housing in which a removable glue carrier is arranged.

The wasp traps of the prior art are characterized by the fact that they are of a stable design and can be used multiple times. Given their use in only a limited annual period, these are too expensive and require additional storage capacity in the non-use period.

The object of the invention is to propose an insect trap, especially a wasp trap, which can be used for only a limited period of time, is inexpensive to produce and can be disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner.

This object is achieved with the features of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments are the subject of the dependent claims.

In an insect trap consisting at least of a housing gehäusten by a shell with at least one access opening in the room and with at least one arranged or to be arranged in the häusten space attractant for insects, it is proposed according to the invention that at least the shell of gehausten space or in a multi-layered or At least one layer or partial layer of one or more combined raw materials, which are biodegradable, is or are produced.

The raw materials of the shell are preferably renewable raw materials. The insect trap can be disposed of more environmentally friendly after seasonal use.

The sheath or the at least one layer is made of paper or paperboard in a preferred embodiment or consists thereof.

The further layer or partial layer of the shell may also consist of plastic or metal. This further layer or partial layer of plastic or metal should then be detachably connected to the other layer or layers of the envelope in order to be able to be disposed of separately.

In a preferred embodiment, the shell has at least one adhesive surface inside, which points into the space so that insects can stick to it.

It is advantageous if the shell of the gehausten space consists of unfoldable, expandable and / or deployable shell sections. In this way, the transport volume is kept to a minimum. The shell sections can be connected like a concertina and in the unfolded state have a cylindrical, cuboidal or spherical shell to name the most common shapes.

Another embodiment of the insect trap provides that there are two or more access openings, wherein two access openings are interconnected by a tube open at the sides within the enclosure, the tube having one or more access openings in the enclosed space.

Furthermore, an embodiment is provided, in which the at least one access opening is designed like a grommet with a cross-section tapering into the space.

Both the tube and the spout or spouts can be inserted into the shell from the outside inserted. This is particularly advantageous if the shell consists of unfoldable, removable and / or deployable shell sections.

In addition to attractants arranged on the floor, attractants may also or only be arranged on the outside of the pipe or the grommet or nozzles within the enclosed space or may be arranged.

As attractant or attractants liquid and / or solid and / or gel can be used.

If the shell has an additional closable opening in the interior of the häustenten space, the attractant or the attractants can easily bring. The access opening can be easily closed by a flap, a screw cap, a plug-in closure, a slider, a glue dot or a seal / strip.

A further advantageous embodiment provides that outside of the tube or the spout or nozzles within the gehausten space an adhesive agent is arranged or is to be arranged.

Further, it is advantageous if the envelope has a viewing window in the interior of the gehausten space. This can also be the closable opening in the interior of the gehausten space.

It has also proven to be advantageous if the casing has at least one additional ventilation opening for the gehausten space.

To handle the insect trap, this preferably has a carrying handle and / or hanger.

The invention will be explained using exemplary embodiments. Show it:

1 an insect trap with a tube as access opening and

2 a foldable insect trap with a grommet as access opening.

The in the 1 and 2 shown cuboid insect traps, here wasps traps, consist of a through a shell 1 gehausten cuboid space with at least one access opening in the interior of the gehausten room and a viewing window, here each have a further opening 6 closes on the preferred an attractant 9 into the gehausten space can be introduced.

The case 1 of the gehausten space consists of biodegradable raw materials, here paper or cardboard, thus also renewable raw materials.

Intended as an attractant 9 a liquid are used, a floor pan z. B. formed with a metal or plastic film or the floor pan is designed as a use of metal or plastic. The film or the insert are preferably arranged removably, so that the biodegradability is not questioned. The plastic film or the plastic insert may also be biodegradable materials.

Both wasp traps have a carrying handle 7 on, with which the wasp traps are suspendable.

Not shown are in the shell 1 inside adhesive strips that point into the room and where wasps can stick.

The wasp trap according to 1 has a rigid shell 1 with two access openings 2 on that through a pipe 3 are formed, which penetrates the gehausten space.

The pipe 3 has in the gehausten room again several access openings 4 through which the wasps reach the interior of the gehausten space.

The pipe 3 is glued into the opposite side walls or can also be inserted. The latter is advantageous if the shell 1 z. B. from zieharmonikaartig foldable shell sections 8th consists.

Such an embodiment with unfolded sheath sections 8th is in 2 shown here, with a plug-in grommet 5 the at least one access opening 2 forms. The spout 5 preferably has a cross-section tapering inwards into the hollowed-out space. The advantage of such deployable wasp traps is that they are both space-saving transportable and also storable for sale.

Next it is shown that both on the pipe 3 as well as on the spout 5 on the outside and inside in the häusten room attractant 9 is arranged. It is also possible, the spout 5 or the pipe 3 outside and in each case in the häusten room with an adhesive to provide.
