A bug-removal vacuum machine has a horizontal deck, and a structure providing a trapezoidal-shaped air passage directing insects drawn by vacuum-induced air flow through an electrified killing matrix, and into a collection tray

This disclosure relates to system and method for managing an insect swarm using a plurality of drones. The method includes detecting an insect swarm. The method may further include tracking a movement of the insect swarm. The method further includes communicating, with remaining of the plurality of drones, to dynamically align in a position based on the tracking so as to make a drone formation. The method further includes magnetizing, by at least some of the plurality of drones, one or more drone couplers for electromagnetically coupling the at least some of the plurality of drones with each other as per the drone formation. The method further includes casting, by each of the plurality of drones, a net to trap insects in the insect swarm. The method further includes supplying, by each of the plurality of drones, a high voltage to the net to decapitate the insects.

A method of distributing fragile insects in a distribution involving a wind shear, comprises, encapsulating the insects into a bubble and then releasing the bubble into the wind shear so that the bubble protects the insect from the wind shear. The insect may be inserted before or after formation of the bubble at any stage of the insect life cycle and the bubble may be uniform or made of a slow dissolving and a quick dissolving part. The bubbles are useful for aerial distribution of sterile male mosquitoes.

A method for the disinfestation of an environment from ants and similar insects, comprising the steps of:

attracting ants originating from an anthill along a preset path, by taking advantage of the sensory allure emanated by at least one food bait, so as to create a flow of the ants in transit to and from the food bait;

vacuuming part of the flow of ants by intermittently actuating suction elements arranged in the vicinity of the at least one food bait;

transferring the vacuumed ants to a collection container from which their egress is prevented, deliberately allowing at least a part of the ants intent on exiting to complete the return to the antthill.

An easy-to-clean visual grain monitoring device includes a housing. A circuit board is provided within the housing and is connected with a monitoring unit; an insect collecting pipe, which is provided within the housing, includes multiple first entrances; the housing includes multiple second entrances which are corresponding to the first entrances respectively; an execution element, which is installed on a base, is connected with a lower end of the insect collecting pipe for driving the insect collecting pipe to move up and down; an insect leaking passage, which is provided at an upper end of the base, extends downwards along a side wall of the base; a tail end of the insect leaking passage has a first insect leaking hole for discharging pests, the housing has a second insect leaking hole in a position corresponding to the first insect leaking hole.

An insect blowing and suction system including at least two tangential blowers, each creating an air stream at a suitable angle relative to the ground but in opposite directions to each other. The two air streams combine and are diverted upward, thereby lifting insects upward. The upward air velocity is increased by at least one upper axial blower that sucks the air from the housing.
