Emergence Traps – Large Amphibious/Soil Emergence Traps

Two types of amphibious/soil emergence traps are available, both in the same size. The primary difference between the two emergence traps being the colour of the trap itself.

One purpose of emergence traps is to estimate population densities of insects. The trapping techniques of many emergence traps, however, involve in frequent visits to remove insects trapped inside.

These emergence traps are basically a floorless, closed tent plus a collecting head and a collecting bottle. It covers a ground surface area of about 1 by 1 metre.

Because the collecting system of this amphibious emergence trap adopts the design used in the Slam Traps (Sea, Land, and Air Malaise trap), it can be left unattended for a long period of time.

These traps are easy to assemble and are highly portable. When using them as a soil emergence trap, simply place the trap over the selected survey spot. Being about 110-cm tall, it provides enough height to cover small shrubs or potted plants. Use dirt to cover the flaps around the base of each side to keep inside all insects emerging from the soil.

Each trap has two large dome-shaped openings for easy access to the interior. In windy conditions, use tent pegs to stake down loops at the four corners.

One unique feature of either trap is its ability to float. By connecting 2 x Litre soda bottles (not included) and the special trap floating kit (EM1007 sold separately) to the trap, it can be transformed into an aquatic emergence trap for use in wetlands.

(Please note: The EM1007 floating kit is not currently available – It is in the process of being redesigned – Please watch our website for availability).

Until the redesigned floating kit becomes available, one could possibly make their own floating kit by building a square frame from PVC plumbing pipes and tying the trap onto the frame. Rescue floats should be tied at each corner.

Each trap has two large dome-shaped openings for easy access to the interior.
