The invention discloses a fruit fly trap comprising a flowerpot, a cover plate and flypaper, wherein the cover plate is provided with a plurality of inlets for allowing the fruit fly to enter the interior of the flowerpot, each inlet respectively extends towards a bottom direction of the flowerpot to form a lengthened inlet pipe, and the flypaper is mounted on the cover plate by a bracket. According to the invention, the fruit fly can be attracted into the interior of the flowerpot, the lengthened inlet pipe makes the fruit fly difficult to escape until death, the flypaper can stick the flying fruit fly, and the fruit fly can be effectively attracted and killed.

Methods and systems are provided to insect harvesting. The system may include a tank for holding or growing live insects or both. The tank has an opening on a side portion of the tank, and the opening is positioned higher than a bottom portion of the tank. A negative stimulus device for repelling live insects toward a first direction or point towards the opening on the side portion of the tank is provided. A positive stimulus device is provided, situated at the opening of the tank. A product box for receiving live insects has an opening for receiving the live insects. A slide is coupled with the opening of the product box. In an operative position, the tank is positioned such that the live insects leaving the opening of the tank move down the slide to the opening of the product box.

Provided herein is a system for semi-automatic and/or automatic weed removal a system for automatic detection of weeds including an optical sensor and a central server unit, with communication network, an open-loop and/or closed-loop control device and a weed removal device, wherein the optical sensor, the server unit and the open-loop and/or closed-loop control device are in data connection via the communication network, wherein image data of a weed is generated via the optical sensor and transmitted to the server unit, which analyses the transmitted image data such that the weed can be determined, and wherein, via the server unit, in the case of a clear determination of the weed, weed confirmation data is transmitted to the open-loop and/or closed-loop control device which, in response to the weed confirmation data, controls and/or regulates the weed-removal device so that the weed detected by the optical sensor can be removed.

Provided herein are compositions, systems, and methods for suppressing a population of insects such as flies. Some embodiments relate to compositions comprising a fermented biomass, a dye and a particulate matter. Some embodiments relate to systems and methods for use of the compositions described herein. The compositions are biodegradable, non-toxic, and environmentally friendly.

Method for simultaneously preventing pink bollworm and American bollworm, the method including at least: a step in which cotton seedlings are planted in a field 21-41 days after the date of occurrence of the adult stage of the pink bollworm in the case of the first generation, and 1-29 days after the date of occurrence of the adult stage in the case of second and subsequent generations; and a step in which an extended-release pheromone preparation including at least Z,Z/Z,E-7,11-hexadecadienyl acetate, which is a sexual pheromone substance for pink bollworm, and Z-11-hexadecenal, which is a sexual pheromone substance for American bollworm, is implanted in the field 2-15 days before the expected date of occurrence of the adult stage of the next generation of pink bollworm, the expected date derived from the effective integrated temperature, and the sexual pheromone substances in the extended-release pheromone preparation are released in the field.

The present disclosure relates to devices for controlling pests, and, more specifically, to devices for monitoring and communicating the presence of pests, and eliminating pests. The pest control system comprises a frame configured to be removably positioned in a pest control station, a panel pivotally coupled to the frame, and pest control device positioned in the frame.

One example method includes receiving information indicating a population of wild insects within a geographic region; determining a number of wild insects per unit area within the geographic region; placing, based on the number of wild insects per unit area, one or more insect release points based on the number of wild insects per unit area, each insect release point indicating a release of a predefined quantity of insects; and generating an insect release route through the geographic region, the insect release route passing through each insect release point.

Provided is a pink bollworm control method that controls pink bollworms by using a mating disruption method to disturb the mating of the pink bollworms. The method including at least: a step in which cotton seedlings are planted in a field 21-41 days after the appearance of adult pink bollworms if said adult pink bollworms are a first generation, or 1-21 days after the appearance of adult pink bollworms if said adult pink bollworms are a second or later generation; and a step in which a controlled-released sexual pheromone formulation including at least Z,Z/Z,E-7,11-hexadecadienyl acetate, which is a pink bollworm sexual pheromone substance, is placed in the field 2-15 days before the predicted adult appearance date for the next generation of adults of said pink bollworms, as derived from effective accumulated temperature, and the sexual pheromone substance in the controlled-release sexual pheromone formulation is released in the field.
