A method of deterring avian pests from a space includes adding an amount of methyl anthranilate to an evaporator disposed in a space. The evaporator can be passively or actively operated to increase or decrease the off-gassing of methyl anthranilate.

Compositions attractive to mice include one or more additives. The additives can include 2-sec-butyl-4,5-dihydrothiazole and/or 3,4-dehydro-ero-brevicomin, which can be isolated, purified and/or synthetic. In addition to these additives, the compositions can also include a lethal agent, such as, an anticoagulant or a toxicant, a chemostenlant and/or food. Devices and methods of using the composition are also disclosed.

A bristle worm trap for catching bristle worms in an aquarium, includes a trap body, including a trap enclosure, a cap, a bait container, worm access points, each optionally with attached inner and outer access lines that can be funnels or tubes; and an elongated handle used for positioning the bristle worm trap in the aquarium; such that bristle worms crawl through the outer access line, the worm access point, and the inner access line, guided by a scent from a bait positioned in the bait container, and become trapped in the trap enclosure.

An enclosure-type electronic rat trap having an interior accessed through a trap entrance and a rat pathway that leads from the entrance to a baited end opposite the entrance is provided. At least three killing plates coupled to a high voltage circuit are positioned along the pathway in spaced relationship and a barrier extends into and constricts the pathway at a specified distance from a center plate in order to reduce the ability of the rat to escape the trap once the rat has traveled along the pathway sufficiently to initiate a killing cycle.

The present invention provides a molluscicide application apparatus and process that disperses the molluscicide below the water's surface in a manner that minimizes air entrainment and ensures that the molluscicide solution settles at the targeted floor of the body of water, such as a river or lake bed where driessenid mussels are concentrated, and do not rise to the water's surface or disperse. The present invention also maintains a desired viscosity level, for example, 180 centistokes, at typical freshwater temperatures varying from 15 C. to 25 C. by adjusting the flow rate and/or nozzle orifice area of the molluscicide application.

A casino mentality hog trap assembly is built into a trailer having a frame supported by a plurality of wheels, a hitch for attaching to a towing vehicle, and a platform. A hinged trap floor is located in the platform and is moveable between a horizontal closed position and a downwardly inclined open position for causing animals to fall into a holding pen. A plurality of feeder stations are positioned adjacent to the trap floor. The feeder stations each have feeder lids that can be raised by animals to access feed contained in feeder troughs. A trigger mechanism is arranged to be tripped when two of the feeder lids are raised at the same time. A scent roller is also positioned adjacent to the trap floor and is connected to the trigger mechanism by a linkage that causes the trigger mechanism to be tripped when the scent roller is lifted.

An AI intelligent sound wave pulse resonance mouse repeller and a mouse repellent method are provided, the mouse repeller includes an AI intelligent chip, a power converter, an indicator light, and an ultrasonic horn. The AI chip can freely generate a high-speed and ultra-high frequency pulse wave with random changes, can perform AI calculation with environmental sound, and then perform random scanning. A generated pulse signal resonates with a sound frequency of animals such as mice and bats, is superimposed with a sound wave to achieve state pulses that are tens or even hundreds of times stronger for stimulation and interference, effectively disrupting and stimulating an auditory system of rodents, making them intolerable, feeling panicked and uneasy, and exhibiting symptoms such as loss of appetite, escape, and even convulsions, can achieve a goal of driving the rodent out of their range of activity.

A rodent trap having a remote arming capability and a method of deploying a rodent trap in an unarmed state and then arming the trap after a wait period without the user having to again physically access the trap is provided. The trap, preferably embodied as an electronic rodent trap, may be configured with wireless remote arming capability, timed arming functionality, activity based arming and the like. When in the unarmed state, the trap operates in a monitoring mode in which the trap can monitor and evaluate activity and/or interactions with the trap and can send and receive wireless communication signals.

A raccoon trapping module which can be attached to an existing wildlife trapping cage to enable only raccoons to be trapped in the trapping cage, comprising at least a door which opens and closes an entrance of a horizontally long cage, a lock mechanism which locks the door in an open state, and a linkage member which is linked with a trigger member which performs a lock release operation of the lock mechanism, wherein a hollow housing is provided which is attached to an end part of the cage at the opposite side from the door, a surface of the housing at the door side has an arm insertion hole which enables a raccoon to insert a forearm, a baiting part in which bait is placed is provided inside of the housing within a range which a hand of the raccoon can reach when the raccoon inserts its forearm from the opening part, and a connecting member makes a linkage member perform a lock release operation of a lock mechanism by the action of a raccoon which takes bait from the baiting member.

A hunting decoy apparatus, wherein the decoy exhibits lifelike movements controlled mechanically by a user. The apparatus comprises an outer sleeve member and a movable slidable member slidably engaged within the outer sleeve member. The outer sleeve member attaches to the ground. The decoy stand is inserted into the movable sliding member and extends perpendicular from the outer sleeve member in an upward direction with a decoy on top. The distal ends of the slidable inner sleeve member and the outer sleeve member are connected by an extension limiting biasing element such as a spring or elastic cord. A tether is attachable to the proximal end of the movable slidable member. To activate movement of the decoy, the tether is pulled and released by the user causing the decoy and decoy stand to move within the slot forward and backwards. Small tugs on the tether by the user causes the decoy to move in lifelike movements creating the appearance the decoy is bobbing and pecking like a wild bird.
