Attraction may prove fatal at times. A wily contraption devised by Min-Kyu Choi – a product designer from the Royal College of Art, London – lures bugs, insects and other pests toward a sure death. The innovative pest control device comprises of a flower-shaped UV lamp that emits light for alluring pests, a dye-solar panel for keeping the apparatus in action always, and certain carnivorous plants that clean up the mess with extreme precision.

The solar panel harnesses sufficient solar energy during the day and utilizes it in switching the UV LEDs on when it is dark.
