BugTrap — Insect Trap with Bayonet-Lock Closure
Tired of fruit flies feasting on your fruit or ants marching across your kitchen? BugTrap is the answer: a simple, effective trap that's incredibly fast to print.
The design is made of just two parts — container and lid — but the real difference is in the closure. No threads here: the lid drops in and locks firmly with a 90° twist thanks to a bayonet mechanism.
The advantages over threaded designs:
- Faster to print
- Minimal, optimized wall thickness — less material and less time
- Angles designed to print without supports
- Secure closure that's still quick to open and reseal
- Fewer critical points where your filament can mess up
How to use it
Just fill the container with the bait of your choice, close it with a twist of the lid, and place the trap wherever you need it. Works with any kind of insect — fruit flies, ants, gnats and the like.
You can use classic store-bought baits or, given the theme, one of the many DIY recipes easily found online. Get creative.
Simple, clean, functional. Print, bait, catch.
