A seeding device for depositing seeds in a soil material, comprising: (i) a frame detachably mounted to a support structure of a moveable gantry, (ii) a plurality of discs rotatably mounted about a shaft of the frame and configured to be vertically lowered into the soil at a predefined depth relative to the ground plane, and, (iii) a seed deposition system mounted to the frame configured to dispense seeds into a plurality of seeding tubes. Each seeding tube is aligned with, and disposed downstream from, a respective one of the plurality of discs such that as the frame traverses over the soil by displacement of flue moveable gantry, grooves are produced in the soil by the plurality of discs, and seeds are deposited into each groove by the seeding tubes of the seed deposition system.

An enclosure for debilitating an animal is disclosed herein. The enclosure can include a compressing plate, a plurality of structural supports, a support surface, and a sensory deprivation shield. The compressing plate can be configured to receive a force causing the compressing plate to move in the direction of the force. The compressing plate can then debilitate the target animal within an internal region between the compressing plate and the support surface. The enclosure provides convenience and control for the hunter over the target animal, while avoiding the use of weapons or traps.

A system and method for driving geese away from an area employs predetermined random illuminations of particular wavelength light directed in a fashion that repels geese while avoiding annoying humans. Embodiments include systems associated with golf course pins and other structures and animal decoys that hide undesired aesthetic appearances of prior art industrial lighting elements. Other embodiments employ adjustable/movable mirror elements used in conjunction with systems powered by solar energy panels positioned below the light source, which can be adjusted in terms of direction, shielding, color, duration, wavelength and pulsation, providing a variety of random patterns so as to avoid habituation by geese.

Described herein are various systems and techniques for deterring wildlife from an area proximate a windmill. A flying wildlife emitter may be utilized for such techniques. The flying wildlife emitter may output soundwaves to deter wildlife, such as birds or bats, from entering an area around the windmill. The flying wildlife emitter may include a speaker for producing sounds as well as a controller and sensors for determining conditions around the windmill and for controlling the sound produced by the speaker. An ultraviolet emitter may, additionally or alternatively, be utilized for such techniques. The ultraviolet emitter may be configured to emit ultraviolet light that may attract wildlife away from such areas proximate to the windmill.

A pest deterrent system is provided. The pest deterrent system includes a sensor module and an actuator module. The sensor module includes a first housing, a sensor, and a controller. The sensor is positioned within the first housing and proximate to the view window such that the sensor is in visual communication with the view window and configured to detect objects outside of the first housing. The controller is positioned within the first housing and is operatively coupled to the sensor. The controller is configured to receive a signal from the sensor, such as an alert that an object is near the sensor module. The actuator module includes a second housing separate from the first housing, an actuator, and a second controller. The second controller configured to receive a signal from the first controller to actuate the actuator in response to the sensor being triggered.

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.
