A cover for a probe head of an air data probe includes a sleeve defining a cavity for enclosing a portion of the probe head of the air data probe, the sleeve including a closed end, an open end opposite the closed end, and an interior surface extending from the open end to the closed end, and a reservoir for holding insect repellent, the reservoir located at least partially within the cavity of the sleeve.

The present invention provides a novel method of protecting simple to very complex structures that have a foundation sitting on soil from penetration by crawling insects or other pests. This is accomplished by encircling the structure to be protected with a strip of material that is capable of being heated sufficiently that the temperature of its outer surface is high enough that insects or other pests will not come into contact or pass over it and thereby will not enter the structure. Crawling insects that will be prevented from entering a structure include but are not limited to termites, millipedes, ants, and cockroaches.

A beehive stand has a basin which holds liquid such as oil which is covered by a baffle. However, the baffle is spaced apart from the basin such that the basin and baffle have an air gap there-between and are separate from each other. A centrally located vertical pole or support pole rises from the basin through a portal in the baffle and continues upwards to support another object such as a beehive. Multiple such beehive stands can be used to support or be different legs of a beehive, table, cabinet, appliance or other object especially one used outdoors. As there is no direct physical path directly upwards from the ground on which the stand is supported to the object there-above without an air space or oil, this prevents insects from climbing up from the ground to an object supported by the stand.

A pet feeding bowl assembly for inhibiting insects from accessing animal feed includes disk that is positionable on a support surface. A bowl is coupled to and extends upwardly from the disk and animal feed can be positioned in the bowl. The bowl is centrally positioned on the disk such that the disk defines a moat surrounding the bowl. In this way the moat inhibit insects from accessing the bowl when the moat is filled with a fluid. A spout is integrated into the bowl and the spout is directed toward the moat defined by the bowl and the disk. In this way the fluid can be poured into the spout for filling the moat.

This disclosure relates to ingredients which are coated onto a surface, to reduce the number of insects on the surface. The disclosed chemistry changes the properties of the film created after application of the liquid coating composition making the film harder and having anti-static properties.
