Abstract
An insect trap employing a light transmissive sleeve for placement over a suspended light source wherein the sleeve is removably secured to the light. The sleeve includes vanes circumferentially spaced on a cylinder with arcuate segments of the cylinder exposed therebetween. An adhesive coating is applied to the vanes and the arcuate segments. Attracted by the light, the insects are drawn to the adhesively coated surfaces and trapped. The sleeve is replaced periodically as necessary.
