Portable window unit for killing insects

摘要

A portable, self-contained unit has two spaced apart electrical wire grid screens. One of the screens has a positive charge and the other has a negative charge. Electrical power is provided to a transformer which provides the necessary electrical current to the grid screens. Flying insects attempting to pass between the dual electrified grid screens are electrocuted. A third screen is located behind the dual electrical screens, at the rear of the unit, adjacent to the living space. The dual screens are secured within a frame which is made of a non-electrical conducting material. The entire unit is configured to be positioned within a window opening and secured within the opening by slideably adjustable wing elements which moveably extend laterally from the frame.
