Abstract: A decorative fly trap for household use includes a sconce having a housing including a bottom section and an overhead cover partially enclosing a source of UV light, and an adhesive trapping medium. The cover includes an intermediate surface extending from behind the UV light source upwardly and over the UV light source to a location forward of the light source. A base mount is removably assembled to the bottom of the unit so that the unit may either be wall mounted or supported on a horizontal surface, such as a table. A UV reflective coating is applied to the interior exposed surfaces of the housing including the curved intermediate surface of the cover to enhance the reflection of UV light out into the room and downwardly in front of the to attract insects. The housing includes a horizontal aperture for admitting reflected light from within the sconce onto a front surface of a lower tier of the bottom section for attracting insects as well as for presenting an attractive appearance.

Abstract: A flying inspect trap has a source of UV light to attract insects and an adhesive sheet to trap them. A concave housing which encloses the light source and the trapping medium has a series of narrow light-transmissive slits in a front wall to permit a direct partial viewing of the source from the front of the unit to enhance insect attraction. A cover mounted above the housing has a reflecting surface in the form of a band shell which reflects light from the source out into the room as well as downwardly in front of the unit, and prevents light from shining directly or indirectly on the wall above the housing.

Abstract: A flying inspect trap includes large, multi-directional, oppositely facing ingress openings to elongated chambers housing UV lamps emitting insect attractant light. A disposable cartridge has two sections which mate together to form a container for a roll of adhesive trapping medium. The cartridge sections are opened and spread apart to fit beneath the UV lamps. A motor indexes the adhesive medium so that some unused portion is always available for trapping insects until the roll is exhausted. The spent roll is then rolled into one cartridge section externally; and the two cartridge sections are coupled together to encase the spent roll for disposal.
