Insects pass through the cone 11 into the space between the frame 9 and the window, and are directed by plates 12, 13 to cones 14, 15, and thence by plates 16, 17 to the cones 9<a> leading to the body 1. When used with large windows &c., two such devices may be connected by a plain wire cylinder, the ends of which fit over the inner collars 4. Specification 9469/06 is referred to.
