Abstract
A device for attracting and destroying insect pests utilizes a pressurized canister charged with either carbon dioxide or octenol or a combination thereof, or with insect pheromones, in combination with infrared and/or ultraviolet lights to attract a variety of insects, including mosquitoes and biting flies which prey on humans. The pressurized canister and fluorescent light source are surrounded by an electrified grid which electrocutes the insects when they try to reach the source of the attractant. A motorized cam mechanism is utilized for periodically discharging the contents of the pressurized canister.
