Abstract: An insect trap comprises a tubular body compatible with a discarded drink container with one or more of the ends removed to receive removable end funnels as points of entry for the insects. An internally mounted electric lamp is associated with a prong connector adapted to mount in an AC household outlet. The prong connector serves the dual functions of providing both mechanical support and a source of power when the trap is operated in one mode directly from an AC household outlet. In an alternative embodiment, a rechargeable battery pack is enclosed within the cannister and the prong connector provides a means for recharging the battery pack as well as providing means for mechanically supporting the trap when operated directly from an AC household outlet.
