  However, in the apparatus shown as the prior art in Patent Document 1, since the adhesive force of the adhesive sheet deteriorates with time, it is necessary to replace the adhesive sheet periodically, which increases the running cost, It was economical. In addition, if the mosquito does not stop on the adhesive sheet part, it can not capture the mosquito, the mosquito reaches the blood sucking target organism, not only is the mosquito capturing efficiency bad, but the decoy blood sucking target organism is bitten by the mosquito, There was a risk of infection with pathogens transmitted by mosquitoes, which was unsanitary. Moreover, it was not preferable for animal welfare to deceive an animal and let the mosquito suck the blood. Moreover, since the blood-sucking target organism is exposed to the risk of infectious diseases as described above, it cannot be used for raising animals such as pets and livestock.

  Further, in Patent Documents 2 to 4, it is necessary to continuously generate light, carbon dioxide gas or sound waves, and the running cost is high as in the apparatus described in Patent Document 1. In addition, since a light, carbon dioxide gas or sound wave generator is required, the structure of the device itself is complicated, the manufacturing process is complicated, and the manufacturing cost is high. Further, in Patent Documents 2 and 4, since the apparatus must be connected to a power source in order to generate light and sound waves, the place of use is limited.

  Therefore, the present invention is intended to solve the above-described problems, and has high mosquito trapping efficiency, does not require running costs, is easy to manufacture, is inexpensive, and may cause damage to domestic animals. It is intended to obtain a usable product regardless of location.

  In order to solve the problems of the prior art as described above, the present invention provides ventilation means for making it difficult for mosquitoes to pass around the outer periphery of an internal chamber capable of accommodating mosquito blood-sucking organisms such as humans and animals. The attracting substance generated by the blood-sucking target organism can be discharged to the outside through the means. A mosquito collection room for attracting and capturing mosquitoes is arranged outside the ventilation means, and mosquitoes that allow entry of mosquitoes from the outside and make it impossible or difficult to return to the outside. There is an entrance.

  In addition, a plurality of mosquito traps may be provided outside the internal chamber via ventilation means. By forming a plurality of mosquito rooms in this way, it is possible to enhance the mosquito trapping effect.

  Further, the mosquito entrance may be formed in a funnel shape with a narrow inner direction, and in this case, the mosquito entrance can be formed by a simple method.

  Further, the ventilation means may be provided with an openable / closable blocking body on the inner chamber side or the mosquito collecting chamber side so as to block communication between the mosquito collecting chamber and the inner chamber. By providing the shielding body in this way, it is possible to close the shielding body to prevent the intrusion of wind and rain, or to appropriately open and close the shielding body to adjust the temperature in the internal chamber, and to capture mosquitoes It becomes possible to make the device more convenient to use.

As described above, the present invention attracts mosquitoes by attracting substances such as odor, CO ₂ , infrared rays, etc. emitted from living organisms in the internal chamber, and it is not necessary to separately provide a device for generating the attracting substances. Therefore, it is possible to obtain an inexpensive product by simplifying the structure of the apparatus. Further, since the periodic maintenance of the attracting means is not required as in the conventional known example, the running cost can be reduced. Further, since a power source such as a power source is not required to generate the attracting substance, it can be used anywhere.

  In addition, because the mosquito collection room and the internal chamber are connected via ventilation means that make it difficult for mosquitoes to pass through, there is no risk of blood-sucking organisms such as people and animals in the internal chamber being stabbed by mosquitoes. Hygienic use is possible. Thus, using the mosquito capture device of the present invention, it is possible to reduce the running cost and prevent the mosquitoes semipermanently while preventing the blood-sucking target organism from being stabbed by the mosquitoes in the internal chamber. Efficient use of mosquito traps is possible. It is also possible to capture mosquitoes while raising domestic animals such as pets and livestock in the apparatus.

  In addition, since the mosquito entrance can enter from outside the mosquito and make it impossible or difficult to return to the outside, the mosquito taken from the mosquito entrance must be securely captured in the mosquito collection room. It is possible to increase the capture efficiency of mosquitoes.

  In addition, it is known that only the female mosquito sucks the blood of the blood sucking target organism among the mosquitoes. In the capture device of the present invention, it is attracted by the attracting substance generated by the blood sucking target organism and captured. Only female mosquitoes are done. Therefore, there is no possibility that the mosquitoes will be exterminated regardless of males and females as in the case of drug spraying, and the food chain will be blocked by taking away food such as dragonflies. In addition, since only mosquitoes can be safely captured without using chemicals, currents, etc., there is no risk of accidentally capturing or killing small animals such as small birds.

  Further, if a large number of mosquito entrances (6) are formed as described above, the mosquito attractant filled in the mosquito collection chamber (5) can be efficiently discharged from the mosquito entrances (6) to the outside. This makes it possible to increase the mosquito trapping effect. Moreover, since the air permeability between the internal chamber (1) and the outside air can be improved by the formation of a large number, it is possible to prevent the blood-sucking target organism (2) in the internal chamber (1) from becoming deficient. You can also.

  And in what was comprised as mentioned above, when the blood-sucking target organism (2) is accommodated in the inner chamber (1), the attracting substance generated by this blood-sucking target organism (2) is the ventilation means (4) and the mosquito. It flows out to the outside through the mosquito entrance (6) of the intake room (5), and the mosquito is attracted from the mosquito entrance (6) into the mosquito intake room (5). As described above, the mosquito entrance (6) makes it impossible or difficult to return the mosquito to the outside, so that the mosquito that has once entered the mosquito entrance (5) from the mosquito entrance (5) It is surely captured in the mosquito collection room (5) without returning to step (b).

In this way, the mosquito trapping device of the present invention attracts mosquitoes by attracting substances such as odors, CO ₂ , infrared rays, etc. emitted from blood-sucking target organisms in the internal chamber (1), and is a device that generates attracting substances. There is no need to provide them separately. Therefore, it is possible to obtain an inexpensive product by simplifying the structure of the apparatus. Moreover, since the periodic replacement of the attracting means is unnecessary, the running cost can be reduced. Further, since a power source such as a power source is not required to generate the attracting substance, it can be used anywhere.
