Abstract: An insect monitoring system (ISM) and related e-commerce system are provided. The ISM includes an insect attracting light, an intake, an exhaust, an airflow conduit between intake and exhaust, an insect collecting mesh in the conduit, a fan for generating airflow in the airflow conduit, and one or more cameras pointed on the insect collecting mesh. The insect attracting light and the fan are activated such that insects are drawn into the intake and trapped against the insect collecting mesh. The images of the insect collecting mesh are processed and analyzed using a machine learning algorithm to recognize a type and number of insects. Recommendations are provided based on the analysis. In some aspects, the insect monitoring system is connected to electronic client devices over a communication network. The electronic devices are provided with an e-commerce application for sale of products and services responsive to the recommendations.
