Abstract

See full text

A bedbug trap that has a series of stacked containers. The top container holds a quantity of water, sugar and yeast, which generates carbon dioxide. The central container holds a small heating pad to attract the bedbugs and to heat the water and yeast mixture to aid in the fermentation. A hose with a water trap system brings the generated carbon dioxide from the upper chamber to the bottom chamber. This chamber sits in a bowl that has a rough exterior and a smooth interior. Holes, formed around the base of the bottom chamber allow the carbon dioxide to escape into the room, which attracts the bedbugs. The assembled unit is large, to trap as many bedbugs as possible in the shortest amount of time. Finally, the water, sugar and yeast are common household items that are easily and cheaply replenished as needed.
