This looks like a lamp, but it is actually an insect catcher. In case you think that hanging a bag of water in your living room would look a bit strange, the musicpapa insect catcher may be a reasonable alternative. How does this work?

It is touted as being an environmentally friendly choice since it does not use electricity or poison. Guess it is just a matter of emptying the sticky cartridge full of unfortunate insects after a period of time.
