The release door is, in response to actuation by a user, movable between a closed position covering the second opening, and a release position at least partially uncovering the second opening and permitting a rodent to exit the interior of the trap. The latch assembly selectively secures the release door in the closed position, and includes an actuator adapted to be engaged or biased by a user for releasing the latch assembly from a latched state.

An insect trap comprises a housing defining an insect intake opening. A receptacle is removably attached to a bottom of the housing and is in communication with the intake opening. A rotating fan assembly is arranged within the housing and is adapted to draw air in through the intake opening in a direction toward the receptacle. An insect screen is removably attached over the intake opening and defines a plurality of first openings sized to prevent insects of a predetermined average size from entering the intake opening.

A live animal trap comprises a cage assembly defining an interior space accessible via at least one entrance, a door assembly and a trigger assembly. The cage assembly includes a floor, a pair of opposed side walls, a rear wall and a top wall removably connected to the pair of side walls and the rear wall. The door assembly includes a door pivotally mounted to the cage assembly and movable between a closed position and an open position for selectively opening and closing the at least one entrance. The trigger assembly includes a trigger arranged within the interior space of the cage assembly. A first linkage of the trap is removably attached to the door assembly in an operating position. The first linkage is adapted to engage with the trigger assembly to hold the door in the open position.

A liquid ant bait pack having a primary bait well and a plurality of feeding reservoirs for holding liquid bait is provided in which the walls of the feeding reservoirs as well as the primary bait well are sloped to facilitate ant access to the liquid bait held therein while reducing the risk of the ants falling into the bait and drowning. Ant access is further facilitated by dry platform areas positioned between the reservoirs. The inclusion of multiple feeding reservoirs, the bait well and the dry platform areas provides an increased area over which ants can simultaneously access the bait. The entrance to the bait pack is sealed during manufacture and then readily opened by the consumer using a tear-off tab that can removed without the need for any tools.

An insect trap includes a housing having an insect receptacle, a cover assembly connected to the housing and movable between a closed position and an opened position, and a lighting element removably attached to the cover assembly. The lighting element is arranged within an interior of the housing in the closed position of the cover assembly and is removed from the interior of the housing in the opened position of the cover assembly. The lighting element is removable from and attachable to the cover assembly in the opened position.

A bait packet includes a container defining a bait containing space with a bait in the bait containing space and an access structure protruding from the container into the bait containing space. The access structure has a first portion that is above a level of the bait in a first orientation of the bait packet and a second portion different from the first portion that is above the level of the bait in a second orientation of the bait packet. The second orientation is approximately perpendicular to the first orientation.
