Title: Trap for aquatic snails in aquariums

Abstract: A trap for aquatic snails in aquariums comprises a base plate and a basket containing a bait mounted thereon. The snails will gather around the bait basket and may be removed with the base plate after a certain time of exposure. A housing enclosing the base plate and the bait basket and having an inlet locked by inwardly tiltable locking pawls serves to prevent the snails from escaping after the bait has been consumed.
