Abstract

A pest trap comprising a main body. A first chamber connected to the main body has an opening arranged to allow a pest to enter the first chamber, there being a movable closure to the opening of the first chamber. A second chamber connected to the main body also has an opening arranged to allow a pest to enter the second chamber, again there being a movable closure to the opening of the second chamber. The pest trap is arranged, in response to a sensor mechanism detecting the presence of a pest in the first or second chamber, to close the movable closure to the opening of the first or second chamber, and to activate a kill mechanism to release a fluid into the first or second chamber to kill the pest.
