Disposable fly killer container
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     My invention is a container for trapping and killing insects such as house flies. The container is in the form of a circular or rectangular cross-section box fitted with a removable cover and enclosing an open chamber in the center of which a circular disc is mounted on a support. The disc is coated or impregnated with a fly contact poison and an insect attractive scent. Insects killed by contact with the disc fall into the bottom of the box. A string attached to the center of the disc serves as a means for suspending the unit from a hanger.

     DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT 
     Turning now descriptively to the drawings, in which similar reference characters denote similar elements throughout the several views, FIGS. 1-2 illustrate the fly killer container 10 in the form of a cylindrical box 11 fitted with a removable flanged cover 12 and housing an internal chamber 13 in which a dome shaped disc 14 is mounted on an axial support 15 fixed to the bottom 16 of the container. 
     Disc 14 is shaped with a convex dome on its upper surface 18 as shown in FIGS. 2-3 with the upper surface 18, lower surface 19, and outer circular rim 21 of the disc 14 coated with a poisonous contact insectide such as 2, 2-Dichorovinyl Dimethyl Phosphate. An insect attractive scent may also be coated on the surfaces of disc 14 or in the interior of the box 11. Disc 14 is located so as to lie a spaced distance below the plane of the top opening of box 11 covered, when not in use, by cover 12, and a spaced distance from the internal wall surface 23 of box 11 so that flies killed by contact with disc 14 will fall onto the bottom 16 of the box 11. Box 11 is formed with an external cylindrical wall of uniform external diameter so that cover 12 may be fitted, in use, on the bottom of the box, as shown by the dash lines of FIG. 2. 
     A length of string 25 is fastened to the center of disc 14, with a hook 26 fitted to the free end 27 of the string for suspending the unit, when open from a hanger (not shown). 
     Alternately, as shown in FIGS. 4-5, a box 30 of rectangular cross-section may be employed instead of cylindrical box 11 so as to rest against a flat wall 31 or in an internal corner 32 formed by two walls 31. String 35 may be fixed to the mid-section of a wall 36. 
     Alternately disc 14 may be formed of a porous material and impregnated with an insectide. 
     Since obvious changes may be made in the specific embodiment of the invention described herein, such modifications being within the spirit and scope of the invention claimed, it is indicated that all matter contained herein is intended as illustrative and not as limiting in scope.
