The purpose of the present invention is to provide a pest-accumulating device and pest-accumulating method that can attract pests, such as chicken mites and the like, and keep the said pests therein, and that can be easily handled by anyone, and to provide a pest-inspecting device that allows the captured pests to be evaluated. n A pest-accumulating device for accumulating mites such as chicken mites and northern fowl mites, includes an accumulating part 10 made of a material that allows a charged layer to be formed on a surface thereof. When a charged layer is formed in the accumulating part 10 , mites, such as chicken mites and northern fowl mites, can be gathered in the accumulating part. When the pest-accumulating device 1 of the present invention is set up in a fixed place in a poultry house CH, mites such as chicken mites that parasitize chickens CK, and even mites such as chicken mites that enter into narrow spaces in the poultry house and chicken cages KG, can be accumulated in the accumulating part 10 . Then, the mites, such as chicken mites, in the poultry house CH can be efficiently exterminated by exterminating the mites, such as chicken mites, that have accumulated in the accumulating part 10. |
