A trap for capturing a plurality of animals is provided. The trap can comprise an enclosure having an opening through which the at least one animal can pass to enter the enclosure. A gate, movable between an open position and a closed position, is positioned therein the at least one opening and can be selectively moved from the open position to the closed position when desired. Methods are also provided for capturing at least one animal by providing a trap with a gate, positioning the gate in an open position, monitoring the trap until at least one animal has entered the trap, and remotely triggering the gate to move from the open position to a closed position.

A remotely activated door-opening mechanism is provided for a cage trap having an animal enclosure, preferably a cage trap as disclosed in U.S. Publ. No. US2008/0115405. The mechanism is mounted outside the enclosure of the trap and is preferably remotely activated by an IR or RF transmitter to open a door of the trap and release a trapped animal when the operator is at a safe distance away. The mechanism may also be manually set with a time delay and may be associated with either a main entry door to the trap or with a secondary escape door located at an opposite end of the trap.

The modular pest trap assembly of the present application includes a modular relatively planar structure that is configured to be adaptable for different methods and areas of a structure for the capture of pests. The assembly includes a main body with a first face and a second face. The modular structure also includes a flap and an edge trap member. An adhesive layer extends across a portion of a singular face of the modular structure. A detachable film cover lays across the adhesive layer to permit handling without contact of the adhesive layer. The flap extends outward from the main body so as to assist in attaching the main body to a corner for creation of a void space.

A pest control barrier is provided. The pest control barrier comprises a continuous barrier track disposed about an entirety of a predefined perimeter. The predefined perimeter may define an interior space and be disposed along an entirety of an outer boundary of the interior space. The continuous barrier track may comprise a topical catch layer. The topical catch layer contains a quantity of pressure sensitive adhesive material dispersed throughout the topical catch layer sufficient to restrain a pest from free movement away from the topical catch layer, such that the continuous barrier track forms a continuous catch loop about the predefined perimeter that bars entry into or exit from the interior space by a pest such as, but not limited to, rodents, snakes, insects, arachnids, pedes, scorpions, and/or other pests. In this way, an object disposed within the interior space defined by the predefined perimeter may also remain pest free.

Devices and methods for pest control, including devices useful to place pest control devices at locations of use such as at a crop (e.g., at a branch of a tree), certain embodiments of devices including a capsule and a tether that can become tangled or caught in a tree or other crop location.

A trap for large animals. The system utilizes multi-containment areas for improved efficiency in herd animal trapping. The outer containment zone of the system is designed in such a way to promote animals further into the inner containment zone. The improved efficiency lowers overall cost of trap operation in terms of time, consumable bait replenishment and number of attempts on target animal groups. The system allows for independent and remote actuation of containment zone gates. Data is transmitted to a remote user and remote actuation of attracting or deterring audio can be done during trapping process. The architecture of the trap dissuades animals capable of jumping from doing so over the containment walls.
