Disclosed is, on the one hand, a method for killing insects and/or mold of portable heritage and/or artworks, wherein the objects to be treated are temporarily treated in a sealed housing. On the other hand, disclosed is a device for carrying out an insect and/or mould (fungus) killing treatment on portable heritage and/or artworks, including a housing for temporarily placing the heritage and/or artwork of The method and device according to this disclosure were developed in particular to protect artworks and/or portable heritage against damage (by deterioration) and thus to preserve them for a longer period.

Disclosed is a method for decontaminating and/or extracting toxic substances of portable heritage and/or artworks, where the objects to be treated are temporarily treated in a sealed housing.

A system for sterilizing a physical space, such as a hotel room. The system generates and distributes heated air to the physical space to elevate the temperature of the space to a level sufficient to achieve a desired sterilization effect of eradicating insects and microoganisms. The system is portable and self-contained. The system includes a hydrogen fuel cell that generates electrical power. An electrical system conditions and stores the electrical power and supplies stored electrical power to the system components and peripherals. System components include a source of hydrogen, a heater, an air distributor, and a filter. Peripherals include a UV light source and an aerosol dispenser. The combination of heat, UV light and aerosol disinfectant effectively eradicates insects, microorganisms, allergens, and odors in the physical space.

A grain pest control apparatus includes an input unit adapted to accept input of grain; a heating unit adapted to heat the grain supplied from the input unit; and a removal unit adapted to remove heat from the grain heated by the heating unit, wherein the removal unit includes a cylindrical body provided with an air passage hole in a wall surface and adapted to receive the heated grain and a heat collecting chamber installed by surrounding the cylindrical body and connected to an exhaust channel, and removes heat from the heated grain by causing air supplied into the cylindrical body to pass through the air passage hole and escape via the heat collecting chamber.

The present disclosure describes an apparatus, system, and method for trapping and exterminating arthropods, particularly red mites. The apparatus includes an opaque housing and a heat strip configured to have separate temperature zones. The method includes warming the heat strip to lure the mites into the trap, heating outer heat strip segments to drive the mites toward the center of the trap, and then raising the entire heat strip to a temperature sufficient to exterminate the mites. The system includes placing one or more of the traps in animal hold structures, including nesting boxes in poultry houses.

The present invention is a mechanical technology that kills parasitic pests, harmful bacteria and weed seeds in the soil by using high-temperature steam while moving forward by using a caterpillar with a self-powered device in order to smoothly perform the eco-friendly high-temperature steam soil disinfection in all types of soils, such as clays and sandy soils, having suitable moisture content; a mechanical technology in which the steam boiler is operated with power of an A/C generator to produce steam the steam is supplied to the re-heater installed on an upper portion of a nozzle through a high-pressure steam hose to increase the steam temperature to reheat the steam with high-temperature dry steam, thereby increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of high-temperature steam soil disinfection, and a saw blade type crusher is activated with the pre-generated electrical energy to crush and soften the soil, so that the high-temperature steam sprayed from the steam outlet of the nozzle protected by the needle rod penetrates into the soil within a short time, and the high-temperature steam is covered with a cover to become banded steam so as to be prevented from escaping to the outside, thereby increasing the instantaneous temperature of the soil; a mechanical technology that conducts disinfection work while checking all directions of the high-temperature steam soil sterilizer with a video monitor in a cockpit; and a researched and developed mechanical technology in which multi-level thermometers installed on the needle rod is monitored through a temperature monitor in the cockpit, so that the killing temperature of pests, harmful bacteria, and weed seeds is analyzed while watching a status of the temperature of the heated soil.

The present disclosure generally relates to the field of pest elimination including all life stages of bed bugs. The present disclosure includes articles, systems, and methods of heat treatment to target and kill pests.

A portable pest eradication system 60, comprising a plurality of electrical cords 21a-e connected electrically to a plurality of the electric heating elements 65a-e, a circulation fan assembly 55, a programmable module 48 and a user interface for entering a treatment time and/or a target temperature for heating a particular room in a house or building. The portable pest eradication system 60 is designed to provide sufficient heat to reach the target temperature in a reasonable period of time to kill bedbugs, bedbug eggs, mold, ticks, bacteria, dust mites, scabies, cockroaches, body lice, fleas, and/or other pests.

An apparatus for solarization of a volume of soil includes a support structure in the form of a frame having a first opening extending therethrough. The apparatus comprises a lid positionable over the frame, a plurality of walls extending under and away from the frame, and an assembly that redirects solar energy attached over the support structure. The lid and walls form a second opening. During operation the support structure is placed on a section of ground and adjusted for solar energy to be directed toward and through the lid. When placed on the ground, the frame, the lid, the walls and the adjoining ground form an enclosed volume that prevents thermal energy from escaping the enclosed volume while directing the solar energy into the volume via the second opening to heat underlying soil.

The present invention provides a mosquito trapping device, which comprises a carbon dioxide generating module, a temperature control module, a humidity control module, and a mosquito-killing module. The carbon dioxide generating module comprises a container A and a container B, a solution in the container A reacts with a solution in the container B to generate carbon dioxide; the temperature control module controls a temperature of the mosquito trapping device to be between 38° C. and 45° C.; the humidity control module controls humidity of the mosquito trapping device to be between 50% and 80%; the mosquito-killing module generates a guiding wind having a wind speed of 0.7 m/s to 15 m/s. The present invention has a good mosquito-attracting effect and a desirable mosquito-killing ability.
