Of course, the connection mode between the upper seat body 10 and the lower seat body 11 is not limited to the threaded connection mode, and the upper seat body 10 and the lower seat body 11 can be closely combined by a snap connection mode.
Slot part 22 is movably arranged on seat body 1, and slot part 2 is used for installing the sticky board 3 coated with an adhesive.
In this embodiment, the slot part 2 includes a first slot part 21 and a second slot part 22, and the sticky board 3 is clamped by the first slot part 21 and the second slot part 22. Since the sticky board 3 is usually made of paper and has certain compressibility, it is only necessary to reserve a distance between the first slot part 21 and the second slot part 22 that is less than the thickness of the sticky board 3, and when placing the sticky board 3, the sticky board 3 should be pressed hard. Of course, to have a better clamping effect of the slot part 2, elastic pieces can be arranged on the opposite surfaces of the first slot part 21 and the second slot part 22.
The slot 200 formed by the first slot part 21 and the second slot part 22 of the slot part 2 is straight. Of course, the shape of the slot 200 is not limited to straight, and it can be S-shaped, L-shaped and other desired line shapes; it may also be triangular, rectangular, circular, oval, circular and other closed shapes; similarly, the sticky board 3 can also be of various shapes matching with the above clamping groove. When the sticky board 3 is of a circular shape, the surface area of the sticky board increases, and more mosquitoes can be adhered.
The adhesive can be coated on one side or both sides of the adhesive sheet 3 as required.
Slot 200 may be perpendicular to seat body 1 or inclined at an angle with respect to the seat body 1.
Even, a sticky board installation boss can be arranged on the top of the slot part 2, and an installation hole matched with the sticky board installation boss can be formed on the sticky board 3, and the sticky board 3 can be laid flat on the top of the slot part 2.

In this embodiment, the bait emitting hole 100 on the upper seat body 10 is located right above the storage chamber 4 and just below the sticky board 3, so that the smell of bait can be emitted around the sticky board 3, and mosquitoes are more likely to be adhered to the sticky board 3.
The setting of the storage chamber 4 is not only the above-mentioned way, but also an opening communicated with the accommodating cavity can be opened on the upper seat body 10. The lower seat body 11 is provided with a chamber for accommodating bait to form a storage chamber; it is also possible to put the formed storage chamber into the accommodating cavity through the opening; as an optimization, a cover plate with bait emitting holes can be arranged at the opening to cover the opening, prevent foreign objects from falling into the storage chamber, and improve the aesthetic effect.
The bait placed in the storage chamber 4 can be one or more, and placing a plurality of baits at the same time can attract a variety of mosquitoes, such as fruit flies and mosquitoes at the same time.
The shape of the bait can be any desired shape, such as round flake, square flake, capsule, etc.
Baits can be stored in a centralized way or separately. When stored in a centralized way, a plurality of bait can be stored in a container in a sealed way, and when used, a single bait can be taken out and placed in storage chamber 4. When a single bait is stored, it is packaged separately in an inner packaging bag and then in an outer packaging bag. When in use, the outer packaging bag is opened and the bait with the inner packaging bag is taken out. The inner packaging bag can be breathable or airtight. When the inner packaging bag is airtight, it is necessary to open the inner packaging bag again and take out the bait and put it in storage chamber 4. Adjacent inner packaging bags can be arranged in a shape convenient for tearing, such as zigzag.
