Electronic insect-control system

1. A system, comprising:

a first end configured to attach to a light bulb socket;

an opposite end; and

a middle part fixed between the first end and the opposite end;

the middle part comprising:

an internal electric insect control mechanism including an internal electrified grid that surrounds an internal light source, the internal electrified grid comprising two grid components separated by a gap and having a voltage applied across the two grid components; and

external grids that surround and enclose the internal electrified gird and that permit insect entry into the internal electric insect control mechanism but prevent touching of the internal electrified grid;

the opposite end defining a compartment separate from the middle part, comprising:

optics comprising a light emitting diode (LED) that is separate from the internal light source; and

a cover that covers the visible light source LED but does not extend over the middle part;

the system comprising control circuitry that is preset to a mode that powers both (a) the LED and (b) the electric insect control mechanism including the internal light source at the same time;

wherein the control circuitry modifies, in response to subsequent user input, the mode that is preset to power both (a) the LED and (b) the electric insect control mechanism including the internal light source at the same time to control, independently, the electric insect control mechanism including the internal light source and (ii) the LED.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the internal light source, the internal electrified grid, and the LED all are configured to derive power from a commercial power supply via the first end.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the internal light source is a fluorescent light source.

4. The system of claim 1 , comprising a wireless communication mechanism.

5. The system of claim 4 , wherein the control circuitry

receives control input via the wireless communication mechanism.

6. The system of claim 4 , wherein one or more of the internal light source, the electric insect control mechanism and the LED are variably controlled.

7. The system of claim 4 , wherein the one or more of the internal light source, the electric insect control mechanism and the LED are variably controlled via remote input.

8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the remote input is received via wireless communication.

9. The system of claim 1 , comprising a tray attached to the opposite end.
