A method that includes the following steps: determination of predictive meteorological data in a region surrounding the facility; querying of a database about the presence of birds in the region surrounding the facility; calculation, by a prediction unit, of the probability of birds passing opposite the facility as a function of time, on the basis of the predictive meteorological data and data relating to the presence of birds in the region surrounding the facility; and control, by a control unit, of at least one light source of the facility, on a basis of the probability of passage, calculated by the prediction unit.

An automated system for mitigating risk from a wind turbine includes a plurality of optical imaging sensors. A controller receives and analyzes images from the optical imaging sensors to automatically send a signal to curtail operation of the wind turbine to a predetermined risk mitigating level when the controller determines from images received from the optical imaging sensors that an airborne animal is at risk from the wind turbine.

This indoor pest repellent device (10) is provided with: a light source (11); a light concentrating part (the first light concentrating part (13)) which concentrates a portion of diffused light (LS) emitted from the light source (11); and a first displacement unit (the rotation mechanism (14)) which changes the relative position of the first light concentrating part (13) relative to the light source (11), and which displaces the irradiation region (the light irradiation region (SP1)) of the light from the first light concentrating part (13), said irradiation region being formed on a floor. The light concentrating part is provided with a convex lens.

The present disclosure relates to an ovitrap and a method of controlling mosquito populations. The ovitrap includes a container, a cover, and a dividing mechanism for dividing the container into two regions, which in use are filled with water, and which communicate via an opening such that a first volume below the dividing mechanism defines a larvae trapping region, and a second volume above the dividing mechanism defines an egg receiving region A light source having a cool, white spectra with two peaks is mounted above the container and positioned to direct light downwards at a water surface, such that the larvae move in a direction away from the light source, from the second volume into the first volume below the dividing mechanism via the opening. A gating mechanism is operatively linked to the light source for opening and closing the opening.
