Inverted spray can with lid for catching, containing, killing or disposing of insects

摘要

A insect control device includes an inverted poison spray can with a multi-functional lid for catching, containing, killing or disposing of insects. The insect control device can contain the insect, so the user does not have to grab it and perhaps drop and lose it. The insect control device includes an aperture for closing the insect within the lid and allows the user to spray insecticide onto an insect contained within the inverted lid. The lid design contains the insecticide and concentrates it use onto the insect, where desired, rather than getting the insecticide onto the users walls, floors, ceilings or the like. If the user desires, they can carry the insect control device, with the aperture closed and the insect contained in the lid, to a location to release the insect. Typically, the lid will be clear or transparent to allow the user to see inside the lid.
