A01M13/00
Insect repellent fixture and method
A fixture (100) for gradually releasing a spatially effective semiochemical, for example a repellant. The fixture includes a slotted tube (140), that may be formed for example, from a porous material, a peripheral tube (102) having a plurality of apertures and disposed outward from the slotted tube, a base (110) that engages the slotted tube and the outer tube, a funnel member (160) that engages a top end of the slotted tube and the peripheral tube, and a cap (130). In an embodiment the base includes a lighting element (150).
FOGGING / MISTING APPARATUS WITH LOW CFM BLOWER AND MIXING CHAMBER FOR ULTRA-LOW VOLUME ATOMIZED FOG
A fogger apparatus and related methods are disclosed. The fogger apparatus includes a portable fogger body. A DC blower motor is positioned on the portable fogger body and is powered with a battery, wherein the DC blower motor produces air flow through at least one passageway within the portable fogger body. A quantity of fogging liquid is housed within a container positioned on the portable fogger body, wherein at least a portion of the quantity of fogging liquid is dispensable from the container. An activation switch controls at least one of activation of the DC blower motor and dispensing of the portion of the quantity of fogging liquid. A mixing chamber receives the air flow and the dispensed portion of the quantity of fogging liquid. The dispensed portion of the quantity of fogging liquid is expelled through a nozzle as a particulate having adjustable droplets sizes.

Systems and methods for indoor plant cultivation, storage, and pest control
The present invention provides an effective pest control solution for indoor cannabis applications. The interior atmosphere is controlled to expose the live cannabis plants or post-harvest plant products to low oxygen levels (higher than 1% but lower than ambient air) and high carbon dioxide levels for one or more periods of less than 48 hours. This combination is effective to prevent or eliminate pests without harming the plants.
