3D printing template for The Water-Exclusion Trap (WET): A 3D printable window trap collector that prevents DNA degradation

<p><span>3D templates of a long-term storable bottom collector for window or pitfall traps. The collection medium in a LEE trap barely evaporates and does not dilute because water is excluded, maximizing DNA preservation. Based on field-collected specimens and lab experiments, we confirm that the LEE significantly outperforms conventional traps in terms of DNA quality. </span></p>
