Abstract
Three traps with bait for coprophagous and necrophagous insects and the mole cricket, a polyphagous pest, are described. Due to their design, the traps strengthen the bait odor, prolong their service life, and prevent coprophages and necrophages from mixing with bait, which markedly facilitates insect collection.
