Abstract: An inflatable flying insect trap that serves also serves as a light source. The insect trap is formed of an inflatable globe that, once inflated, forms a curved wall upon which a glue trap may be mounted. One or more LEDs positioned within the cavity of the globe emits light that passes through the globe and through the attached glue trap. Insects attracted to the light will become adhered to the external surface of the glue trap.

Abstract: A mole trap formed of spring-biased jaws that are positioned underground. A trigger plate is mounted above and in line with the jaws. The trigger plate is extendable to reach farther into the ground and retractable back into a stored position. The adjustable trigger plate allows fine tuning of the trap for different conditions.

Abstract: A flying insect trap formed of an ingress chamber having a light source to attract flying insects and a fan to create an air stream to direct insects into a capture chamber. The trap has an upper illumination chamber to project light upward in order to enhance the trap's attractiveness to flying insects. The upper illumination chamber is formed of a plate containing light emitting devices that face upward and project light through a translucent cover.

Abstract: A device for converting an ovi trap commonly used to capture mosquitos into a trap configured for trapping flies. The device includes an insert having a disc-shaped member that has holes on one end and channels extending from the holes on the other end. The insert is placed on a cylindrical capture chamber of an ovi trap such that the channels extend into the hollow of the capture chamber. Fly attractant is provided in the well of the ovi trap such that flies, attracted to the bait, will enter through the holes in the insert and fly down the channels into the capture chamber. Once in the capture chamber, they are unable to fly upwardly to escape.

Abstract: A rodent having elements that are visually attractive to rodents. The trap incorporates nesting material, which is attractive to female mice. The trap may also include one or more stalk-like elements which are visually attractive to mice.

Abstract: A multi-catch trap unit configured to trap rodents and insect using two respective modalities. The trap is formed of a housing or similar container that is configured to receive one or more mechanical rodent traps. A glue board also is provided that is foldable to form a right angle. The glue board is used to trap insects, and a vertical portion of the glue board also functions to separate an insect-trapping chamber from the rodent-trapping chamber.

Abstract: A mosquito trapping system having a natural plant disposed proximately to a mosquito capture chamber. The capture chamber is suspended above a well configured to retain standing water. Standing water provided in the well and the plant foliage are each independent attractants to mosquitoes. A soil retaining structure is configured to allow drainage water from the soil system to flow into the well containing standing water, thereby depositing biological matter into the water. Decaying biological matter provides additional bait to attract mosquitoes.

Abstract: A trap for attracting and capturing animals without injury. The trap is a walled chamber that has an opening for animals to enter. A trigger plate located in the rear of the trap is set to lower a trap door once stepped on by an animal. A hook used to hold the trap door in a raised position is provided with a thumb assist interface allowing a user to easily set and the trap with the assistance of a finger such a thumb. The trap also is provided with a separately accessible bait chamber which allows a user to add bait to the trap without having to insert a hand into the trap chamber.
