A rat attractant composition is disclosed which includes one or more isolated additives. The composition is attractive to at least rats of the species Rattus norvegicus. Devices including the rat attractant composition and methods of using a rat attractant composition are also disclosed.

This present invention relates to a body scanning device that is capable of both capturing, displaying and/or transmitting to remote locations the vital signs of a user and a preliminary diagnosis. More specifically, the body scanning device scans a palm of an individual using an electrical pulse to read and interpret the individual's vital signs, as well as allowing the user to input body parameter information such as sex, height, weight, etc. The body scanning device provides the individual with diagnostic questions, and an overall diagnosis based on the scan. The body scanning device is further comprised of Wi-Fi and/or Bluetooth capabilities.

Provided is an absorption promotor for causing a flying-insect pest repellent fragrance-containing composition with a high repellent effect to be rapidly absorbed into an elastomer molded body. The absorption promotor for causing a flying-insect pest repellent fragrance-containing composition into an elastomer molded body having a hardness of 60 degrees or less includes d-limonene and/or 1,8-cineole as an active ingredient. The absorption promotor is blended preferably in a range of 2.0 to 65% by mass and more preferably 10 to 45% by mass in the flying-insect pest repellent fragrance-containing composition.
