DEFINITION

Classification: 43/107

(under subclass 58) Traps designed specially to effect the capture of insects, but which are not adapted to catch animals in general.

(1) Note. These traps, as a rule, take advantage of certain habits of insects which are peculiar to insects and are unknown in other forms of animal life. Insect traps, like other traps, are usually baited. By "insects" as used in this art is meant not only true insects all of which are Hexapods, or six-legged, but creatures, often confounded with insects, belonging to the classes known as "Arachnida" and "Myriapoda", examples of the former class being scorpions, spiders, and mites and of the latter being centipedes and millipedes.
