  • Patent number: 5832648
    Abstract: A container forms a shoulder disposed annularly about an opening in the container. The container contains a scented liquid therein. A cap is configured to removably cover the opening. The cap includes a ring thereon for tying a cord thereto, for hanging the cap from a tree branch. A plurality of elongated members are attached to the cap. Each of the elongated members includes a catch member at a distal end thereof and disposed outward from the elongated member. Each of the catch members is configured to retain the container thereon by seating beneath the shoulder, thus the container is suspendable below the cap when the cap is removed from the opening. A flexible, planar member forms a base of the cap. The planar member includes a slot formed therein. The slot is configured to snugly retain an end of an elongated wick therein.
