An insect control device is described having a housing with a base. A power source is disposed about the housing along with a first light source within the base. A second light source is in the base and is a single LED coupled to a controller. The controller is programmed to turn the single LED on at a randomized rate within a predetermined set of time segments and at a predetermined set of time increments.

An apparatus and method for capturing and killing ticks. In one embodiment a surface on a roller is coated with an adhesive combined with a compound of cedar oil, citronella oil and rosemary oil. When the roller surface of the apparatus is pressed against a tick, the tick adheres to the surface by the pressure-sensitive adhesive and is subsequently killed by the oil compound.

The present disclosure relates generally to an arthropod trapping device, more particularly, to a compact and portable trapping device comprising a housing and an insert, where the insert is also attachable to or insertable into a handheld trapping implement.

The present disclosure relates to the sensor based observation of arthropods in a region where plants grow. The subject matter of the present disclosure is a device, system, method and computer program product for the sensor based observation of arthropods, by means of a camera.

An adhesive-type insect trap includes a main body having an adhesive sheet insertion hole; a light source mounting unit disposed on the main body; a cover which is detachably mounted on the main body and has a through-hole in at least a part thereof; an adhesive sheet including a sticky substance and a sheet. The main body includes a guide unit by which the adhesive sheet is guided, and an adhesive sheet support unit for supporting the adhesive sheet.

Systems, devices, and methods for using insect traps with combinations of dual multi-colored lights combining blue/green LED (light emitting diodes) with UV (ultraviolet) LEDs (light emitting diodes) for attracting insects to the lights and capturing the insects. The blue/green LED can emit at a wavelength of approximately 450 nm to approximately 550 nm in an approximately 180 degrees spread therefrom, and each side UV LED can emit at a wavelength of approximately 365 nm in an approximately 180 degrees spread therefrom. The combinations of multi-color lights can be mounted on one side of a module/fixture, and/or be mounted on opposite side faces of a module fixture. The combinations can use one centrally located blue/green LED with at least one right UV LED to a right side of the centrally located blue/green LED, and at least one left UV LED to a left side of the centrally located blue/green LED. Embodiments can include use on a sticky paper/card, in a housing with fan, and collection tray, and in an electrical gride of wires having a collection tray and sand mesh bag.

A device for controlling at least one insect bait station (100), in particular for insects harmful to humans, animals and plants, in which the bait station is provided with: at least one container (3, 5) provided with an insect entrance opening, the container containing bait and being at least partially transparent or translucent, a lighting device (10) lighting the inside of the container but located outside same, a telecommunication module (23, 25) and a printed circuit comprising, inter alia, a memory and a processor connected to said telecommunication means. The device comprises an optical sensor essentially opposite the lighting device, and connected to the printed circuit (12), which measures the general opacity caused by the insect(s) in the container, the corresponding value being transmitted for processing and analysis of the status of the bait station.
