For routine operation of the BG-Counter 2, we recom
-
mend to not install a catch bag.
A catch bag and funnel net can be installed when the
trap and BG-Counter 2 are run only overnight or for a
few hours, with the aim to manually inspect the catch
bag:
Attach a funnel net and a catch bag
to the bottom part
of the BG-Counter 2 [F6]. The funnel net is important to
avoid double counts of insects crawling out.
