The solar-powered light trap is a creation of Chandran, who had been experimenting with different eco-friendly techniques for pest control…
Comprising of a bowl on a tripod, an LED bulb and a solar panel, the contraption’s modus operandi is interestingly simple yet impressive for its cost-effectiveness. The bulb emits blue light from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m., which attracts the insects to the device. Right below the bulb is a poison trap that not only catches these pests but ensures instant death as well.
