Traditionally, seed traps are wooden frames with a screened bottom. Traps with metal frames have also been used. Additionally, funnel-shaped traps that are set above the soil or leveled at the ground, traps with screen or cloth bags, traps with water or soil to germinate them, plastic buckets, or traps with sticky surfaces have been used.

A funnel for hot filtration Two funnels, A - a simple stemmed funnel. B - a ground glass powder funnel. Plain funnels exist in various dimensions, with longer or shorter necks. Filter funnels have a neck of a thin capillary tube and ribs which increase the filter-papers' effectiveness and thus accelerate the process of filtering. [1]
The tap-controlled outlet is designed to drain the liquid out of the funnel. On top of the funnel there is a standard taper joint which fits with a ground glass or Teflon stopper. [4] To use a separating funnel, the two phases and the mixture to be separated in solution are added through the top with the stopcock at the bottom closed.
Wasps can be drawn into a funnel type bottle trap using syrup, a soft drink or sugar water. Bread soaked with beer will attract cockroaches. Bread soaked with beer will attract cockroaches. Other fruits are sometimes used, but banana is most common used since it is widely available, normally inexpensive and contains sufficient sugar to start a ...
A Berlese funnel or Berlese trap is a device used to extract desiccation-intolerant invertebrates from samples of soil or leaf litter. It works by creating a desiccation gradient over the sample such that mobile organisms will move away from the dry environment and fall into a collecting vessel, where they are preserved for examination.

[1] [2] Funnels are usually made of stainless steel, aluminium, glass, or plastic. The material used in its construction should be ...
A Büchner funnel is a piece of laboratory equipment used in filtration. [1] It is traditionally made of porcelain , but glass and plastic funnels are also available. On top of the funnel-shaped part there is a cylinder with a fritted glass disc/perforated plate separating it from the funnel.
It is primarily used together with a Büchner funnel fitted through a drilled rubber bung or an elastomer adapter (a Büchner ring) at the neck on top of the flask for the filtration of samples. The Büchner funnel holds the sample isolated from the suction by a layer of filter paper. During filtration, the filtrate enters and is held by the ...
