Abstract:
A stackable creature control member, a stacked assembly of creature control members and mounting assemblies for mounting in an operating position the stackable creature control member and/or the stacked assembly of creature control members. The stackable creature control member has a creature control substance applied over a planar or a non-planar surface. i.e., a surface having a plurality of points each of which has a different z-axis coordinate. The stackable feature of the creature control members allows the creature control members to be stacked for packing, shipping and/or use. The stackable assembly allows an individual to readily separate one creature control member from a directly adjacent creature control member without any liner or other separating member being present between adjacent creature control members. Preferably, the stacked assembly of creature control members in the stacked state is located in an operating position by a mounting assembly and individual creature control members are readily and easily removable from the stacked assembly as needed. Preferably, the creature control substance applied to a portion of the creature control members is either a creature trapping substance for trapping creatures on the creature control member or a repellent for repelling birds from the creature control member and/or the surrounding area.

Claim (Index 32):
An apparatus for trapping insects, said apparatus comprising:\n (a) a stacked assembly of insect traps including at least a first insect trap and a second insect trap, each of said first insect trap and said second insect trap having a peripheral wall extending downwardly from an upper surface; (b) said first insect trap having an insect trapping substance on at least a portion of said first insect trap, said insect trapping substance being formed to trap insects on said first insect trap; (c) said second insect trap having an insect trapping substance on at least a portion of said second insect trap, said insect trapping substance being formed to trap insects on said second insect trap; (d) said peripheral wall of said first insect trap and said second insect trap being configured to form a hollow cavity so that a portion of said second insect trap extends into said hollow cavity of said first insect trap; and, (e) said peripheral wall of said first insect trap including a first portion and said peripheral wall of said second insect trap including a second portion, said first portion and said second portion act together to restrict relative rotational movement between said first insect trap and said second inset trap of said stacked assembly in one of a clockwise direction and a counterclockwise direction, wherein said first portion and said second portion from an exterior surface of a corresponding peripheral wall.
