A system and method for treating head lice, and, more particularly, but not exclusively, to a system to trap and/or eradicate head lice from a subject passively.

An apparatus and related method for concentrating then killing mosquitos, comprising: a mosquito larvae trap for containing a stagnant, stationary pool of water for luring female mosquitos; a mosquito trapping screen in the shape of an inverted funnel comprising a fine mesh of apertures small enough to prevent mosquitos from passing therethrough, and comprising at least one female entry hole proximate its lower center inverted apex which female entry hole is large enough to allow passage by female mosquitos; the mosquito trapping screen entirely covering a top portion of the mosquito larvae trap to bar entry to the stagnant, stationary pool of water other than by passing through the female entry hole; the mosquito larvae trap further comprising a light-transparent section over at least a substantial portion of its upper perimeter.

Certain embodiments are directed to device that use a Spectrum Modulated Frequency controlled LED source that strongly attracts a selected target insect or insect population to a trapping and/or killing system to facilitate the capture or disposal of selected genus of flying insects while limiting the attraction of other flying insects.

The present invention provides an electric shock insecticidal device reducing noise and light pollution emitted to an outside. The electric shock insecticidal device converts output voltage and output current supplied to a grid electrode into AC voltage and AC current or into DC voltage and DC current selectively; controls levels of the converted output voltage and current; adjusts an amount of light of the ultraviolet lamp emitted to an outside by using a light blocking layer or an adjusting unit adjusting illumination of an ultraviolet lamp; and easily separates the grid electrode having high voltage from a body unit to remove electrocuted flying insects from the grid electrode.

An entry barrier for a doorway includes a first strip, mechanically coupled to a jamb and a threshold around a strike plate. A second strip is mechanically coupled to the jamb and the threshold around the strike plate and parallel to the first strip. A printed circuit board in a power source unit is electrically coupled to the first strip and the second strip. The printed circuit board directs electrical power from the power source unit to the first strip and the second strip such that a pest contacting the first strip or the second strip is electrocuted.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide an insect trap for trapping insects, the insect trap comprising one or more serviceable parts, the insect trap being movable between a first configuration for trapping insects, and a second configuration for servicing of the one or more serviceable parts. The insect trap is arranged so that the position of the one or more serviceable parts in the first configuration differs from the position of the one or more serviceable parts in the second configuration.

The present disclosure provides for a composition and method for attracting bed bugs to a trap or to a location where an insecticide or pesticide is present, or to a trap or a location where a bed bug infestation can be detected. The present disclosure provides for a composition for attracting bed bugs that includes one or more of methyl diethanolamine (MDEA), monoethanolamine (MEA), diethanolamine (DEA), triethanolamine (TEA), and dimethyl trisulfide (DMTS); a carrier; and optionally one or more amides selected from oleamide, octanamide, nonanamide, and laurylamide; urea, biuret, or triuret; and one or more aliphatic fatty acids. The present disclosure further provides for a method for treating an article by applying the composition to the article, where the article comprises a device for trapping or detecting bed bugs or a device for treating a bed bug infestation.

An intelligent shading system, comprising a base assembly, the base assembly contacting a ground surface and a support assembly, the support assembly connected to the base assembly and a sensor expansion assembly. The sensor expansion assembly connected to the support assembly and to deploy and retract an expansion assembly, the sensor expansion assembly comprising one or more arm support assemblies and one or more arms. The intelligent shading system further comprises a rodent repelling device, the rodent repelling device to repel rodents away from an area around the intelligent shading system. The intelligent shading system further comprises an insect device, the inset device to disable or repel insects from an area away from an area around the intelligent shading system.

An insect decoy is provided that includes a vapor-isolated vessel, a chemical compound disposed within the vapor-isolated vessel, and an excitation energy source. The chemical compound may have one or more absorption bands at a set of absorption wavelengths and have one or more emission bands at a set of emission wavelengths. The excitation energy source may be configured to produce electromagnetic radiation at the absorption wavelengths so as to fluoresce the chemical compound and release photons at the emission wavelengths. The vapor-isolated vessel may be configured with at least one infrared transmissive window that is substantially transparent to the released photons at the emission wavelengths of the chemical compound.

A mosquitocidal light bulb having a seat and lighting elements; the seat is connected with a mouth of a light bulb; the seat is provided with a connecting seat; a circuit board electrically connected with the seat is provided inside the connecting seat; the circuit board includes a lighting control circuit board and a mosquito killing control circuit board; the light elements are connected to the connecting seat and electrically connected with the lighting control circuit board; a mosquitocidal device is connected with the connecting seat and electrically connected with the mosquito killing control circuit board. The mosquitocidal light bulb provided can replace an existing ordinary light bulb and uses existing wire arrangements. Therefore, it is not necessary to change the existing wire arrangements and switch controls to provide both mosquito killing function and lighting function.
