When we went out to check the Malaise trap this afternoon, we discovered that the back part of the trap had caved in. It was a disappointment because there were few bugs in the ethanol bottle. We managed to fix the back part of the trap and hopefully in the days to come there will be more bugs caught.

Ours did exactly the same thing and now it’s raining so we cannot go out and fix it. We went to a camping store and bought better spikes. We got these and as soon as it stops raining, we’ll go out and exchange them.
