Abstract: An insect trap (1) may include a first housing (10); a reservoir (40) at least partially defined by the first housing (10); a protrusion disposed within the reservoir (40) and extending inward from an interior surface of the first housing (10), the protrusion (42) configured to pierce a package disposed within the reservoir (40); an actuator (44) connected to the protrusion (42) such that when the actuator (44) is moved, the protrusion (42) moves with the actuator (44) within the reservoir (40); a second housing (60) moveably engaging the first housing (10); a trap chamber (70) partially formed by the first and second housings (10, 60); an inlet (72) into the trap chamber (70); and wherein the second housing (60) is movable between a first position where the inlet (72) is open and a second position where the inlet (72) is closed. The trap (1) may include a package (152) enclosing an attractant composition.
