Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a bait box adapted to the use of bait blisters; a system for the application of bait blister in pest control, consisting of bait box and bait blister; the use of the bait box or system; Pest control procedures.
  • US 3,750,326 discloses a bait box made of cardboard with side accesses and control openings at the top.
  • US 4,349,982 discloses a bait box made of plastic with side accesses and an opening at the top which is suitable for refilling pourable baits.
  • DE-A 195 01 892 discloses an upwardly open bait box without lateral access, which is covered by a spaced, possibly transparent film.
  • WO 02/102147 and US 5,136,803 describe bait boxes in different designs, the lid of which can be opened for refilling the bait and for checking and which additionally have devices for fixing bait in block form.
  • DE-A 36 11 122 describes bait blisters with active pharmaceutical ingredients for the treatment of animals.
  • the known bait boxes are suitable for using solid baits, but they have a number of disadvantages: In order to fill bait boxes with solid baits, such as wax blocks or pastes, they have to be opened. So that these compact baits do not fall out or are carried over by the rodents, they are placed in precisely fitting compartment ducks or grids (DE-A 39 05 489), put on metal skewers (Protecta ® Ta per Resistant Bait Box for rats) or fixed with wire (DE -U 299 01 578). Only pourable baits can be filled without opening the bait box (US 4,349,982).
  • Another disadvantage of the known bait boxes is that they are not or only poorly suited for bait blisters due to their construction.
  • Another disadvantage of the known bait boxes is that simple and / or quick refilling, especially with bait blisters, is not possible.
  • Pests are often controlled with bait. These baits can be laid out openly if it can be excluded that they will be ingested by non-target animals or by abiotic ones Factors such as weather or cleaning are affected. To largely exclude these influences, bait boxes (also called bait stations) are often used.
  • Bait boxes for controlling insect pests are usually made of plastic and have already been filled with bait by the manufacturer. One or more entrances give the insects access to the bait, which should attract them if possible. As a rule, these bait boxes are not refilled, but disposed of after control.
  • Filled bait boxes for rodents, especially for mice, are offered by some manufacturers. They contain one or more compact feeding baits. These bait boxes are usually not refilled, but disposed of after they have been combated. Alternatively, bait boxes are used that are repeatedly filled by the user during the control campaign. These can be used in several control campaigns or remain on site for continuous prophylaxis against infestation, where they are refilled every 3 months. These stations are often closed, in order to make access more difficult for unauthorized persons (WO 02/102147) or designed in such a way that only the target animals reach the feeding bait (DE-A 39 05 489).
  • opening reusable bait boxes is an additional step, the effort of which depends on the locking mechanism of the box.
  • Compact baits have to be picked up in the hand.
  • Trained professional users wear protective gloves to prevent skin contamination. Working time is required to fill bait boxes with compact baits and protective gloves must be worn.
  • Compact baits can be fixed well when not in use. However, if partially eaten by the rodents, there is a risk that parts of these baits will fall out of the bait station or be carried away. Compact baits that are eaten have a risk of environmental contamination.
  • Bait boxes are known for pourable bait that can be filled from the outside without opening the bait box. There is an increased risk here that bait particles will fall out of the stations or be carried away, which has to be excluded in particular in animal husbandry and in food and feed production. Free-flowing baits that are filled into a bait box from the outside therefore have a high safety risk. That is why compact bait is mainly used in animal husbandry and in food and feed production. These can be fixed well when not in use. If they were partially eaten by the rodents, there is also a risk that parts of these baits will fall out of the bait box or be carried away. Eaten compact baits also pose a risk of environmental contamination.
  • Lures should be designed in the quantities per bait box as instructed by the manufacturer in the application instructions. Portions of pourable bait would have to be measured before filling. Bait is easily spilled. Non-professional users are generally not equipped for portioning baits. An incorrect dosage can prevent successful control. The dosing of pourable bait may be source of error and carries the risk of exposure of users' and environment.
  • Baits can be provided in portioned packages, the contents of which correspond to the recommended amount for a bait station. So that these portions can be stored, they must be sealed airtight and aroma-tight. For the application they are to be opened in order for the target animals, e.g. B. mice to be attractive, and attract them if necessary. Depending on the packaging material used, this process can be strenuous or the packaging can be destroyed more than desired. There is a risk that the user may get skin contact with the bait or spill it. Portioned packaging must be opened for use and pose a risk of exposure to users and the environment.
  • Pests are rodents, insects or snails. Rodents are especially rats, mice and voles. Insect pests are particularly crawling insects such as cockroaches, ants and termites.
  • Brister packaging is used on a large scale in the food and pharmaceutical sector for packaging purposes and is generally known to the person skilled in the art. Characteristic of Such packagings are molded articles which are open on one side for receiving the packaged goods, here the feed bait made of a comparatively solid material (“blister shell”) and a cover of this molded body made of a comparatively compliant material (“31ister film”).
  • Eating baits are compositions that are eaten by the pest in question, contain at least one feed and at least one poison acting on the pest in question in an effective concentration. Depending on the target animal, a rodenticide or insecticide is used as poison. Numerous different formulations for feeding baits are known to the person skilled in the art and are commercially available. Eating baits can be formulated as compact shaped baits ("bait block”), as free-flowing or pourable baits or as a gel (“bait gel”).
  • Bait gels are feeding baits with pasty or gel-like consistency.
  • the viscosity of the bait gels which can be used can be varied widely and is generally 5,000-100,000 mPas, preferably 8,000-60,000 mPas, particularly preferably 10,000-50,000 mPas.
  • the viscosity can be adjusted by varying the type and proportion by weight of the components, in particular the thickener and the bait material.
  • Bait gels are e.g. known from WO 03/094612. We hereby explicitly refer to the compositions of the bait gels disclosed there.
  • Pasty formulations based on fat (“pasty bait gels”) are generally known to the person skilled in the art.
  • Bait blocks are solid bait baits. Bait blocks are known in various forms, their size depends on the pest to be controlled and varies between 1 g and 300 g. Such bait blocks are e.g. known from DE-A 198 37 064.
  • Bait blister packs are bait in a blister pack. Basically all feeding baits can be used. Preference is given to using bait that sticks in the blister pack. Bait gels and bait blocks are suitable. Bait blocks are preferably heated and poured in liquid form into the blister packaging, where they harden at room temperature. The advantage of bait blisters is that they are fresh and soft to use, even if they contain water. Contains one serving for fighting mice. 1 g to 50 g of bait, preferably 3 g to 30 g and particularly preferably 5 g to 15 g. For the control of rats, a serving contains 10 g to 300 g. Packs with a content of 20 g to 200 g are suitable, particularly suitable 70 g - 130 g.
  • a bait box is a box for pest control, containing at least one side access for the pest and space for a feeding bait. Preferably has a bait box two side entrances. The size of the side entrances is adapted to the pest to be controlled.
  • the bait box according to the invention additionally has at least one device for opening the bait blister (d).
  • Opening the bait blister is to be understood as meaning damage to the blister film which leads to the pests being able to perceive the feeding bait and which is sufficient for the pests to open the blister film so far that it is attached
  • the opening can be done, for example, by making holes, tears or cuts on the blister film or by completely removing the blister film.
  • the bait box according to the invention preferably also has at least one opening for feeding the bait blister (c) and a device for opening the bait blister (d).
  • the opening for inserting the bait blister can be at the top, side or bottom of the bait box. A lateral opening is preferred.
  • a lateral opening (b) is preferred, the size of which is coordinated with the cross section of the bait blister (e) in such a way that it can be pushed horizontally through the opening into the bait box.
  • “Precisely fitting” is to be understood as a gap dimension that is small enough to prevent the pest to be combated from penetrating and to make gnawing more difficult. Gap dimensions of 0J - 5 mm are suitable, gap dimensions of 0.5 - 2 mm are preferred.
  • the side opening can be opened by an additional device, e.g. a flap or a slide.
  • the bait blister is fixed in the interior of the bait box by suitable devices. This can e.g. B. done by two transverse walls or several delimitation pins.
  • a preferred device for opening the bait blister (d) is a vertical strip of hard material ("sword”) attached to the inside of the lid of the bait box.
  • This sword is resiliently connected to the lid and is located over the location where the inserted bait pack is fixed. In the relaxed state, the distance between the bottom of the box and the lower edge of the sword is less than the height of the bait pack.
  • the hard edge of the bait blister pushes the sword upwards.
  • the packaging edge in the pushing direction has reached behind the lower edge of the sword.
  • the tension of the sword is set so that it is now in Rest position jumps and tears open the film of the lure pack.
  • the sword is preferably bent so far that it causes the largest possible crack.
