Abstract
The present invention relates to an insect trap and, more specifically, to an insect trap which uses UV LEDs as light sources for luring insects and is capable of efficiently radiating luring light. The insect trap according to the present invention comprises a UV LED installation part having a plurality of UV LED light sources installed at intervals on the edge of the outer side surface thereof, and a trap part disposed adjacent to the UV LED installation part. The center lines of the ultraviolet light radiation areas of the UV LED light sources installed on the UV LED installation part are arranged substantially radially, extending outward from the center of the insect trap.
