Abstract: A flying insect trap has a trap housing with an enclosure for a source of insect attracting light and an adhesive surface for immobilizing flying insects which are attracted by the light. The source of insect attracting light and the adhesive surface are disposed in an enclosure within the trap housing, which is completely closed at the top and sides, so that no light is directed or reflected onto the vertical surface to which the trap is mounted. The trap housing has a front panel with an opening therein substantially in registration with the enclosure, the opening allowing light from the source of insect attracting light to exit the enclosure exclusively toward the front of the trap. The opening in the front panel also allows the source of insect attracting light to be substantially completely directly viewed through the opening.

Abstract: A flying insect trap has a frame-like enclosure in which an insect-attracting light source and an adhesive surface are disposed. The front of the enclosure is covered by a front panel having a design formed therein which includes openings to provide access to the interior of the enclosure, so that insects attracted by the light source, which emits light through the openings in the front panel, will alight on the adhesive surface and become adhered thereto. A design panel is also disposed in the enclosure, which is closed at its rear by a rear panel. The design panel is visible through the openings in the front panel, and the design panel can have a design or an advertisement coordinated with the design or advertisement in the front panel.
