Fly trap and brown plant hopper

Looks like a simple fly trap but catches flies effectively. This is the result of tinkering with the design of Mr. Le Quang Bao (Quyet Thang Ward, Bien Hoa City, Dong Nai).

According to him, the fly trap is like a box, inside there is a water chamber; The bottom of the trap is the bait. Mr. Bao instructed: pouring water with a little soap (no aromatic type) to reach about 2/3 of the compartment.

Decoys are usually mangoes, sugarcane or sweets . placed around the bait container. When flies fly back and forth, they accidentally fly up and hit the trap cap and immediately fall into the drill containing soapy water and die. Fly-killing traps have been granted exclusive industrial designs by the State; Price of 25,000 VND.

Similarly, Mr. Bao also designed a trap to trap brown hoppers. With principles like fly traps, but use light to lure hoppers. Trap brown backed rice plant hoppers use 220V electricity, cost 45,000 VND; use a battery of 35,000 VND.
