Insect Seizing Bin Device And Method

An insect seizing bin device configured for catching flies near a trash bin, the insect seizing bin device comprising:

• a band having a rectangular shape, the band being sized and configured for extending along an entirety of a rim of the trash bin, the band having a front surface and a back surface, the band having a top surface and a bottom surface, the band having a pair of end surfaces, the band being a supple material, the supple material being configured for being bendable;
• a first fold line being positioned proximate to the top surface of the band, the first fold line extending between each of the end surfaces of the band, the first fold line defining a first fold portion, the first fold line being configured for positioning the first fold portion perpendicular relative to the back surface of the band;
• a second fold line being positioned proximate to the first fold line of the band, the second fold line extending between each of the end surfaces of the band, the second fold line defining a second fold portion, the second fold line being configured for positioning the second fold portion perpendicular relative to the back surface of the band;
• wherein the band is positionable in a use configuration in which the first and second fold portions are oriented perpendicular to the back surface of the band and form a cavity therebetween, the cavity being sized such that the band is configured to mount to a rim of the trash bin by receiving the rim into the cavity when the band is in the use configuration, the band being configured to retain a trash bag against the rim of the trash bin when in the use configuration;
• a strip being positioned on the front surface of the band, the strip being positioned adjacent to the bottom surface of the band, the strip being an adhesive material, the adhesive material being configured for retaining a plurality of insects upon the strip by physical contact and
• a cover being positioned over the strip, the cover being configured to shield the strip from adhering to surfaces, the cover being removable from the strip.

A method for removing snatching and removing insects from a bin, the method comprising a step of:

• bending a first fold portion of a band along a first fold line;
• positioning the first fold portion perpendicular relative to a back surface of the band;
• bending a second fold portion of the band along a second fold line;
• positioning the second fold portion perpendicular relative to the back surface of the band wherein the first fold portion being positioned parallel relative to the back surface of the band;
• inserting a trash bag within a trash bin;
• positioning an opening of the trash bag over a rim of the trash bin;
• nesting the back surface of the band against an interior surface of the trash bin;
• inserting a cavity of the band upon the rim of the trash bin wherein retaining the band in place within the trash bin;
• and
• removing a cover from the strip of the front surface of the band.
