Abstract: The present invention provides a device for eliminating mosquitoes and other harmful flying insects by eradicating the eggs and larvae laid or deposited in the device. The device is an electrically operated, self-contained, compact device that eliminates harmful flying insects and/or mosquitoes by attracting the insects to lay their eggs in a body of liquid within the device. This is accomplished with the use of attractants in the device, in the liquid, on the device, or around the device. The body of liquid acts as a breeding ground which is then periodically drained by a valve onto a screen or mesh of sufficient size to filter and separate eggs and larvae from the liquid. The eggs and larvae are then crushed, smashed, or otherwise destroyed by mechanical means. The liquid flows through a filter media, making it ready to be recycled from a reserve tank for reuse in refilling the body of liquid in the device.

Abstract: An electrically operated, self contained device that eliminates mosquitos by attracting the mosquitos to lay their eggs in trays of water provided in the device and periodically filtering the eggs from the water. The eggs that have been filtered out of the water are then mechanically destroyed by crushing them. The filtered water is recycled to a water supply tank for reuse in refilling the trays of water in the device.
