Abstract: Electronic insect barriers are presented including: a base defined by an edge; a perimeter barrier extending upwardly from the base, the perimeter barrier located inward of the edge; a removable cover that defines a trap cavity and defines an inside opening, where the removable cover extends upwardly from the base starting inward of and along the perimeter barrier, where the removable cover extends outwardly toward the edge, and where the removable cover extends downwardly toward the base terminating at a hanging edge outward of and along the perimeter barrier; a number of electrodes located at least along the base inward of the perimeter barrier and within the trap cavity; and an inner barrier extending upwardly from the base, the inner barrier located inward of the removable cover, the inner barrier defining a space for receiving a furniture leg.

Abstract: A electronic insect barrier is provided that includes individual units, powered by electrical current supplied through power cords or network connections to power electronic circuits contained in housings, shielded by circuit board covers, units having a base with a bed leg anchor, supporting and stabilizing a bed leg away from electrical conductors separated by insulators, a means for killing insects particularly bedbugs who enter the housing through crawl holes and an opening, said bugs coming in contact with conductors as they egress a bed.
