An insect station for insects having a base, a retainer, a cover and a disposable cup. The base and retainer engage the cup about the opening of the cup. The cover engages the base over the opening of the cup to minimize the collection of rain and dirt in the cup. A hole is dug in the ground for the insect station. The base is disposed at about grass level and is anchored with stakes into the turf. Openings between the cover and the base permit insects access to the cup. The cover and base include key and keyhole structures such that a certain level of effort is required to remove the cover from the base. The insect station may be used trapping/monitoring, where the retainer is used in the nature of a funnel to maximize the chances that insects will fall into the cup, where water, beer or another attractant can be placed. The insect station may also be used for baiting, where the retainer is flipped the other way and is used in the nature of a seal to minimize entry of dirt and water into the cup, where liquid, granular or gel bait is placed. Instead of being set in the ground, the insect station may be hung from a tree, post or other object or be placed on a surface "upside down" such that the cup points upwardly.
