PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a successful insect capturing tool in which its attachment to a trunk is easy and capture efficiency of insects is not deteriorated by frass.SOLUTION: The insect capturing tool 1 includes a sheet 3 for pest capturing investigation wound by the truck 40 as an adhesive surface having an adhesive agent on one side surface. A spacer disposed between the adhesive surface of the sheet 3 for pest capturing investigation and a bark 41 relative to the adhesive surface of the sheet and forming a gap through which the insect passes is formed of a knot 23 of a knotted net 2 formed by knotting a plurality of yarns 21 narrower than the gap.COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT【課題】樹幹への取付け作業が簡単で、フラスによって虫の捕獲効率が低下することのない良好な虫捕獲具を提供する。【解決手段】虫捕獲具1は片面が粘着剤を有する粘着面とされて樹幹40に巻きつけられる害虫捕獲調査シート3を備える。害虫捕獲調査シート3の粘着面と相対する樹皮41との間に配置され、虫が通る隙間を形成するスペーサが、隙間より細い複数の糸21を結んで形成した有結節網2の結節23から成る。【選択図】図5
