A killing jar or killing bottle is a device used by entomologists to kill captured insects quickly and with minimum damage.[1] The jar typically contains plaster of Paris on the bottom to absorb a killing fluid. The killing fluid evaporates into the air and gasses the insect. Typically only adult hard bodied insects are killed in a killing jar; other insects require different methods of killing.
