In the housing (3), an attracting chamber (11) which has a cylindrical shape and extends horizontally from one end (3a) side to the other end (3b) side, and doorways (11a, 11b) which face each other at the one end (3a) and the other end (3b) of the attracting chamber (11) and through which mosquitos (15) can go in and out are formed. The electric shock grid (5) is provided at an approximately intermediate position between both the doorways (11a, 11b) in the attracting chamber (11). Upon receiving supply of electric power from a solar light generation panel (7) and a battery (9), the electric shock grid (5) gets rid of the mosquitos (15) which come into contact therewith or come close thereto by attacking the mosquitos by an electric shock.
