Insect-Collecting Attachment.
Patent for an insect-collecting attachment for cultivators and similar equipment, with an illustration. The attachment is designed to "shake loose the insects from the plant and to collect said insects for removal and destruction." (lines 16-18). Specific plants that are ridden with insects are particularly difficult to remove, hence the creation of this attachment which will shake the stems of the plants, dislodge the insects and collect them in a receptacle.
