The invention relates to a trap for collecting arthropods, for example ticks. The device comprises an attractant placed over an adhesive surface with the adhesive facing down or at an angle to prevent debris from inadvertently collecting. The arthropods, attracted to the device by the attractant then adhere to the adhesive surface on their dorsal side. The invention also relates to a method of using the device to collect insects by placing one or more of the devices in a desired collection area and collecting insects over a period of time without the need for constant monitoring of the devices.

The present invention provides positively or negatively charged nanobubbles, with the goal to clarify the effects of positively or negatively charged nanobubbles on microorganism and plant growth. The present invention also provides charged nanobubble dispersion liquid that contains 10.sup.5 to 10.sup.10 fine bubbles. The fine bubbles are dispersed in the liquid, are positively or negatively charged, have an average particle size of 10 nm to 500 nm, and have a zeta potential of 10 mV to 200 mV.

The present invention provides an effective pest control solution for indoor cannabis applications. The interior atmosphere is controlled to expose the live cannabis plants or post-harvest plant products to low oxygen levels (higher than 1% but lower than ambient air) and high carbon dioxide levels for one or more periods of less than 48 hours. This combination is effective to prevent or eliminate pests without harming the plants.

A rodent gasser including a smoke cartridge and having a self ignition system is provided. According to a first embodiment, the self ignition system has a top plastic cap covering a strike pad and a lower plastic shroud that protects the rodent gasser ignition system prior to use. An ignition button is provided under the shroud that works with the strike pad to ignite the smoke cartridge. According to a second embodiment, the self ignition system has a top plastic cap covering activation components of a pull pin ignition system that include a gripping element and a connecting element that couples the gripping element to an internal ignition assembly. The gasser is ignited by pulling the gripping element. A method of using the rodent gasser is also provided.
