A fire pit has a gas burner and a repellent container. The gas burner provides energy that volatilizes repellent from the repellent container.

An operating device creating a rising heated vapor which passes through a grill having a concave surface enabling the condensate formed on the grill to migrate towards the center of the grill and away from the periphery of the grill which prevents condensate from dropping onto the operating device interfering with its operation.

A heated scent dispensing device includes an inner housing having an open first end, an upper surface portion having a plurality of apertures, shelf portions adjacent the open first end extending toward each other from opposite sides of the housing and defining a space between their ends for receiving a scent pad thereon, the inner housing supporting a heating pad below the scent pad for allowing heat to reach the scent pad; an outer housing having an open first end and dimensioned to closely receive the inner housing therewithin in telescoping relationship, the outer housing having an upper surface portion having a plurality of apertures which align in registry with the apertures in the upper surface portion of the inner housing when the inner housing is fully received within the outer housing for dispensing scent. Releaseable latching means on the housings retain the inner housing fully within the outer housing.

Devices and methods and pesticidal and/or pest control compositions are disclosed for the control of pests using the vapors of a pesticidal and/or pest control composition. Compositions, devices, methods and vapor forming pesticidal compositions which have improved vapor forming characteristics and are desirable under certain regulatory structures are also disclosed. In some non-limiting examples, the pests are arthropods or nematodes, and more particularly may include bed bugs, fleas, lice, ticks, or the like.

An insecticide fumigator including a chemical cartridge mount on which a chemical cartridge is configured to be mounted, a heater disposed near the chemical cartridge mount and configured to heat the chemical cartridge such that an insecticide in the chemical cartridge is evaporated from a fumigation part of the chemical cartridge, a light source disposed near the fumigation part and configured to emit light having a first wavelength range to attract insects, and a housing provided with the chemical cartridge mount and receiving the heater and the light source, in which the light source includes a UV LED and a substrate on which the UV LED is mounted, and the housing has a light passage hole through which light emitted from the light source passes.

An evaporator is provided, for use with a wicked reservoir containing a volatile liquid. The reservoir has a plurality of guide members disposed symmetrically around the wick and extending beyond the height of the wick. The evaporator features a base containing a battery, and a removable cover containing a heater. Attachment of the cover to the base is necessary to establish an electrical connection between the battery and the heater. The guide members fit into recesses in the cover only when the heater and wick are properly aligned, and the heater cannot make electrical connection with the battery unless the guide members and wick are properly aligned with the recesses and heater, respectively.

An energized assembly to disseminate a treatment agent in vapor phase to a local environment. The assembly includes an emanator element to hold treatment agent, and a flameless energizing source to facilitate volatization of the treatment agent. Preferred embodiments operate for a period of time of between about 4 and 8 hours, and can then be discarded. Typically, a housing associates the treatment agent and the energizing source. Embodiments may sometimes include one or more of: a gas-tight boundary element, a thermal transfer element, a trigger mechanism, a safety mechanism, a termination mechanism, a time-delay mechanism, solidized treatment agent to avoid spills, and a sequestering arrangement.

A portable, heated scent, odor, and/or molecule dispense system is provided, as well as devices and methods for doing the same. The portable systems and methods to dispense molecules may contain a liquid, gel, solid, foam, or other material-based formulation so as to attract, repel, kill, mask, or otherwise use the molecules. The portable system and methods may include a housing; a molecule holding pad in the housing; a first chemical reaction heat source in the housing; and a second chemical reaction heat source in the housing, wherein the molecule holding pad is arranged between the first chemical reaction heat source and the second chemical reaction heat source, and wherein the first chemical reaction heat source and the second chemical reaction heat source are each reactive to oxygen.

The device for evaporating volatile substances comprises a porous mat (1) impregnated with volatile substances, a heating element (2) that heats the porous mat (1) for evaporating the volatile substances, and a reflective element (3) for reflecting the heat from the heating element (2) to said porous mat (1), wherein the reflective element (3) forms a cavity defined by a bottom and side walls where the porous mat (1) and the heating element (2) are placed.

Thanks to this feature, the reflective element reflects or redirects the heat radiation from the heating element back towards the porous mat where the volatile substances are impregnated, and the heat energy that is going away from the porous mat is reflected back to the porous mat, so that a heating element which consumes less energy can be used for the same evaporation capacity.

An insect suppression device, and further relates to a self-moving device, a charging station, and an automatic working system that are mounted with the insect suppression device are provided. The self-moving device moves in a working area, performs a working task, and includes: a body and a movement module that is mounted on the body and drives the self-moving device to move. The self-moving device includes: an insect suppression device, mounted to the body, and a control module, controlling the movement module to move and controlling the insect suppression device to work. The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The self-moving device can move autonomously in the working area and perform an insect suppression task, and has a wide coverage area, flexible work, and high efficiency, so that automatic control can be implemented, thereby freeing a user from the harassment of insects.
