【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は蜂蜜など無毒の餌を使用して部屋に入るアリや犬猫の餌場、軒下等に群がるアリをその場で巣の中のアリまで誘引し、集めたアリを水に沈めて退治する方法と餌羽部、操作部、受け皿部の3部からなるアリ退治器の製作に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
アリは一度餌に群がれば以後毎日のように出没する。その対処法として現在、アリに毒餌を食べさせて退治することを目的としたアリの毒餌剤特願平6−315192(以下、特許文献1という)、アリ類の毒餌剤特願平10−165434(以下、特許文献2という)、害虫駆除用毒餌剤特願平11−285240(以下、特許文献3という)等があり、部屋等に群がっているアリを退治する殺虫剤としてエアゾールがある。エアゾールの効力増強方法特願平10−151441(以下、特許文献4という)等も開発され強力な殺虫能力がある。他に煙で駆除する特開平10−087409(以下、特許文献5という)ヒョウダニ類の忌避駆除剤、大掛かりにはシロアリ駆除剤等を大量に投与する家庭もある。アリ退治の器具では家庭用気体混合器特開平11−099298(以下、特許文献6という)や家庭用乾燥機特開平11−083313(以下、特許文献7という)等があるが共に同発明者で対象物を密閉室に入れ薬剤を気化させて吹き付ける器具である。アリ駆除容器特開2002−191278(以下、特許文献8という)は箱中央部に捕獲部を持ち、そこに誘引剤混入の毒餌を置いて巣の近くで捕獲する毒餌使用の器具である。

【発明が解決しようとする課題】
アリは強力な臭覚と天性で毒餌は食べないので毒餌での退治法には問題がある。エアゾールやダニ駆除剤では巣の中のアリを退治するのは困難である。シロアリ駆除剤等の大量投与は健康上環境上に問題がある。アリ駆除容器はアリの巣を探すのに困難があることと毒餌使用に問題がある。
これらの課題解決をめざして、本発明は室内や軒下、犬猫の餌等に群がるアリを、その場に餌場を設置し蜂蜜や砂糖など無毒の餌で巣の中のアリまで誘引し、餌場に集めたアリを水に沈めて退治する方法とその器具を提供することを目的とする。
【0005】
【課題を解決するための手段】
アリは蜂蜜など無毒の餌を与えれば吸い付けられるように食み付き2〜30分は身動きもせず食べ続ける。また、無毒の餌を見つけたアリは巣に帰り仲間に伝達し行列で仲間を引き連れてくる。餌場が満杯になれば行列はよどむ、次々に餌場を空けてやれば巣の中が空になるまで行列は続く。このようなアリの習性を活用して、アリ退治法を手段にしたアリ退治器を製作することにより発明を完成し、上記課題を解決した。すなわち、
【0006】
アリが出没する場所に餌場を設置し、蜂蜜など無毒の餌を使って巣の中のアリを行列で餌場に集める。
餌場に押し掛けるアリの行列がよどまないように集まったアリを次々に受け皿に振り落として餌場を空け、巣の中が空になるまで行列を継続させる。
受け皿には水を溜め、少量の洗剤を加えて表面張力を消し、落ちたアリが一気に水底まで沈むようにする。
【0007】
本発明の手動のアリ退治器は、餌羽部と、操作部と、受け皿部とからなる。
本発明の自動のアリ退治器は、餌羽部と、操作部と、受け皿部とからなる。
本発明は、無毒の餌を使用して巣の中のアリを行列で誘引する方法である。
本発明は、受け皿の水に洗剤を加え一気にアリを水底まで沈める方法である。
【0008】
【発明の実施の形態】
器具の製作に当たっては、アリを餌場に集める役目の餌羽部、集めたアリを受け皿に振り落とす働きをする操作部、振り落とされたアリを受け止め水に沈めて退治する受け皿部の3部で構成し、無毒の餌でアリを誘引し水に沈めて退治するアリ退治器を製作する。
【0009】
器具の実施例に図1と図3の2種類を提示したが共に餌羽部、操作部、受け皿部の3部で構成した。図1は操作部にピストンを使用し指でピストンを押して餌羽を動かす手動操作の器具であり、図3は操作部にモーターとタイマーを使用して餌羽を自動で操作する自動操作の器具であって共に本発明の技術分野では同じである。
【0010】
【実施例】
以下、本発明の実施の形態を実施例により図面を用いて説明する。
〔実施例1〕
図1は、▲1▼餌羽部、▲2▼操作部、▲3▼受け皿部からなる手動アリ退治器の見取り図であり、図2は構造を説明した断面図である。
▲1▼ 餌羽部は、羽軸11、紐12、餌羽13、餌場14、紐固定穴15からなり、餌場14にアリを集める働きをする部分である。餌羽13はシリンダー22を挟んで両脇の羽軸11から受け皿32を越えて両平地面に羽先が着地するようにしたものであり、その羽先の接地部分を餌場14にした。平地面上の餌場14に無毒の餌を塗ってアリを集め、餌場が満杯になればピストンを押してアリを受け皿に落とし、餌場を空ける。
▲2▼ 操作部は、ピストン21、シリンダー22、支え穴23からなり、餌場14で集めたアリを受け皿32に落とす働きをする部分である。シリンダー22は受け皿中央の取付台31に直立して設置し、下部4cmの位置に支え穴23を開けたものである。その中にピストン21を入れピストン先と支え穴23を介して餌羽13を紐で固定し、ピストンを動かすことで餌羽を操作するようにした。
【0011】
ピストン21を押せば支え穴23からシリンダー22内に紐を引き込み、羽軸11を起点に羽先が持ち上がり逆立ち状態でシリンダーに当たる。ピストンを上下に動かし羽先をシリンダーにパタパタ当てることで餌場14のアリを受け皿32に振り落とすようにした。紐をシリンダー内に引き込んだ時ピストンとシリンダー間に紐が挟まらないようにピストン先を削りこんだ。
【0012】
▲3▼ 受け皿部は、取付台31、受け皿32、水溜め33、シリンダー固定板34、シリンダー固定穴35からなる水溜めを備えた容器であり、餌場14から振り落とされるアリを受け止め水に沈めて退治する働きをする部分である。アリが受け皿32の中心部に振り落とされるように皿の中央部に取付台31を接着し、シリンダー22を丈夫に取り付けるためのシリンダー固定板34に穴を開けシリンダーの先端を差し込んで固定した。また、受け皿には水を浅く溜め洗剤を少し加えて水の表面張力を消し、アリが一気に水底まで沈むようにした。
【0013】
この器具は、受け皿32の中央に取付台31を接着し、その台にピストン21を直立させ、シリンダー22の下部を挟んで両羽軸11を取り付け、その羽軸を起点に受け皿32を越えて外に着地する餌羽13を付け、ピストンを押せば紐を介して餌羽が持ち上がるようにしたもので、餌羽部の餌場14で集めたアリを操作部のピストン21を押すことで受け皿32の上まで餌場14を持ち上げてシリンダー22に当て、餌場で集めたアリを受け皿に振り落とし水溜め33に沈めて退治するアリ退治器である。
【0014】
〔実施例2〕
図3は、101餌羽部、102操作部(自動化)、103受け皿部からなる自動アリ退治器の見取り図で一部を断面した図であり、図4は餌羽部の説明図である。
【0015】
101 餌羽部は、軸穴111、羽止め穴112、羽止め113、羽支え114、餌羽115、餌場116からなり、餌場116にアリを集める働きをする部分である。軸穴111、羽止め穴112、羽止め113、羽支え114、餌羽115、餌場116からなり、図4はその構造図である。羽止め113は縦横1.5cm、高さ2cmの柱状にし、縦方向の中心にモーター軸受穴111を開けモーター軸に取り付けた。四側面には上方より5mmの位置に餌羽115を取り付けた。各羽とも上下には自在に動くようにし、回転時には横揺れをしないように二箇所ずつ羽止め穴112を開け羽止め113に紐で固定した。そして羽が上がるとき紐固定部分から上が突っ張りにならないように、その部分を折り曲げ自在に上下に動くようにした。
【0016】
また、羽先を餌場116にするため先端から2cmの位置を折り曲げ水平に近い状態で底面に羽先だけを接地させた。完全に水平にして全面を接地させれば回転始めに底面との摩擦が大きすぎる。羽支え114は、羽止め113の下部に少し大きめの板を接着し、羽先が常に少し開いた状態にして操作箱125を受け皿131に載せるとき羽先が接地板に引っ掛からないようにした。餌場116には餌を塗り易くすると共に回転で餌が飛ばないように布テープを張り、その上に餌を塗ってアリを集めるようにした。
【0017】
102 操作部は、電池121、手動スイッチ122、自動スイッチ123、タイマー124、モーター126、ブラシ127を操作箱125に配列したものからなり、餌場116で集めたアリを受け皿131に落とす働きをする部分である。手動スイッチ122は電池からモーターへの直接回路のものでスイッチを押せば即モーター126が回転し、それに接続した餌羽115が回転して接地面から浮き上がり羽止め113の水平位置で回転を速め、アリを受け皿131に振り落とす。自動スイッチ123は電池121からタイマー124を経由してモーター126へ接続した自動化用回路のスイッチでONにすればタイマーの指示通り15分に10秒間ずつ自動的にモーターが回転して餌羽を回転させ受け皿にアリを振り落とす。
【0018】
餌羽115の回転で平地面の餌場116で集めたアリを受け皿131の上まで持ち上げ水溜め135に振り落とすようにした。ブラシ127は羽の回転が速くなり羽先が水平位置近くまで上がった時、ブラシの先が餌場の位置に触れるようにし餌場にしがみ付いているアリをこそぎ落とす役目をすると共に高速回転で餌が飛ばされないように羽の回転にブレーキを掛ける役目を兼ねさせた。
【0019】
103 受け皿部は、受け皿131、水止め132、アリの入り口133、接地板134、水溜め135、空かし板136からなる水溜めを備えた容器であり、餌場116から振り落とされるアリを受け止め水に沈めて退治する働きをする部分である。容器底の中心部を丸く切抜き、その外部分に丸く水止め132を作り防水処理をして水を溜めるようにした(プラスチックなら簡単)。その容器の下面四つ角に高さ5mmの空かし板136をはさんで接地板134(薄いトタン板)を貼り付け、平地面に薄い小さなトタン板を置いた状態にし、アリがその上を抵抗なく歩き回るようにした。接地板(平地面)から5mm上は中央に丸い空洞のある水溜め135を持つ受け皿131にした。水溜め135は内側の丸い水止め132部分を1.5cmで低くし、外回りは6cmで高くし、その上に操作箱125を載せるようにした。
【0020】
この器具は餌羽部の餌場116で集めたアリを操作部のモーター126を回転させることで受け皿131の上まで餌場116ごと持ち上げモーター回転の遠心力でアリを振り落とし水溜め135に沈めて退治する器具で、受け皿131の上に操作箱125を載せタイマー124を組み込み、その指示でモーターを回転させるようにしたものであり操作箱125と受け皿131を分けたのは餌を塗る時やアリ退治後の掃除等を容易にするためである。
【0021】
受け皿131の上に載せた操作箱125から伸びる餌羽115は丸い空洞を突き抜け接地板134に着地し、その羽先の餌場116でアリを集めモーター回転で餌場ごと水溜め135の上まで持ち上げ、回転する遠心力で水溜めの中にアリを振り落とす。羽の高速回転でアリは真横に飛ばされ横壁に当たって水溜めに落ちるものが多い。一番底に付けた接地板134は器具をいろいろな場所に設置する時どんな悪条件の凸凹地面でも餌羽115を接地板上でスムーズに回転させるためである。
【0022】
〔実施例3〕
手動のアリ退治器で図1の餌場14に砂糖液を塗り、受け皿32に約5mmの水を溜め洗剤を数滴落として居間で退治したちょろちょろアリの事例
このアリの体長は約2.1mmで歩き方が速く行動範囲の広いアリである。下表のように時間経過と退治数を記録しながら2日で全滅させた。実験開始直後は1分間に100匹近い数でアリが集まって来たので数えにくい時もあったが、拡大レンズを使って数え、数を記録しては水溜め33に沈めたので誤差は少ないと思っている。
【0023】
1日目(14・8・30) 2日目(8・31)
9:25 実験開始 (同じ場所で残りのアリを退治)
(開始後10分で行列) 8:00 実験開始
〜10:30 3850匹退治 〜 9:00 2130匹退治
〜11:30 2630匹 〜10:00 940匹
〜12:30 1740匹 〜11:00 612匹

6時間で実験中止 約4時間でアリが出てこなくなった
(1日目の合計 11480匹) (2日目の合計 4087匹)
【0024】
このように同じアリの巣を2日に分けて退治し、全滅させた。退治時間は合計で約10時間、退治数は合計15567匹で大きなアリの巣であった。巣の中には卵・幼虫・さなぎが残っていると思う。でも親アリを全滅させたので幼虫には餌が運べず幼虫と卵は死ぬと思われる。さなぎが羽化した後もう一回退治すればこの巣は壊滅する。
【0025】
〔実施例4〕
同上の器具を使い台所で退治した《さとうアリ》
このアリは体長約2mmで歩き方はのろく行動範囲も狭い。これも2日に分けて下表のように退治した。
【0026】
1日目(14・9・1) 2日目(9・2)
19:00 実験開始 (同じ場所で残りのアリを退治)
(開始後3分で行列) 20:00 実験開始
〜20:00 2150匹退治 〜21:00 565匹退治
〜21:00 1610匹 〜22:00 124匹
(2時間で中止) 1時間半後からは→ 0匹
(1日目の合計3760匹退治) (2日目の合計689匹)
【0027】
2日に分けて全滅させた。2日分の合計退治数は4449匹で退治時間は約3時間半であった。親の全滅で幼虫や卵は死ぬと思う。さなぎの羽化を待って、もう一度退治すれば巣ごと壊滅する。
【0028】
上記の表でも分かるように4〜5千匹程度のアリの巣では最初の1時間に巣全体の約半分のアリが餌場に集まり後は勢いが弱まる。1万5千匹を越える大きなアリの巣では行列の勢いが強く2時間で巣全体の半分程度が集まり後は勢いが弱まる。また、アリは餌を与えれば昼でも夜でも行列で押しかけ、えさを退ければ行列は消えるので手動アリ退治器で効率よく退治するには夕食準備時間等に器具を設置し、1時間程度で中止し、数回に分けて退治するのが効率的である。4〜5000匹程度のアリの巣は2〜3回退治すれば全滅できる。
【0029】
〔実施例5〕
自動アリ退治器を使用し蜂蜜を餌にして軒下で退治した数種類のアリ、
自動イッチ123をONにすれば15分置きに10秒間餌羽115が回転して餌場116のアリを受け皿131に振り落とし水溜め135に沈めて退治する。
【0030】
(15・6・5)
17:00――実験開始
器具を設置して数分後小さなアリや大きなアリが数匹餌場116に集まって餌場争いをしていたので自動スイッチを入れずにそのまま置いた。
18:00
黒い小さなちょろちょろアリが勝って餌場を独占し行列を作っていたので、まず手動スイッチ122を押して餌場116のアリを受け皿131に落として餌場を空けてから自動スイッチ123をONにした。
21:00
先ほどのアリが5000匹以上と思われる数で水底に沈み底一面まっ黒になっていた。このアリは全滅したらしく餌場には少し大きめの3mmぐらいの赤アリが数匹集まっていた。
23:00
水底は黒アリの上に赤アリが積み重なり赤色に変わり餌場116への行列は延々と続いていた。この時点で赤アリは4〜5000匹は沈んでいると思った。餌が少なくなっていたので餌の補給をして床に就いた。
翌朝5:00
夜の間に赤アリは全滅し、赤アリに変わって5mmぐらいの普通の黒アリが餌場116に群がり行列で押しかけていた。水底には、その黒アリが積み重なって赤から黒に変わっていた。餌が少なくなったので補給した。
8:00
水底はその黒アリの死骸で真っ黒に埋め尽くされ餌場には一匹もいなくなり、代わりに2mm足らずの小さな黒アリが群がっていた。ここで実験は中止した。
【0031】
このように軒下等には、いろいろな種類のアリが餌を探し回っている。同じ餌をめがけて異種のアリが争いを始めるが協力体制の強いアリが勝って餌を独占する。この実験で分かるように、餌を独占したアリが壊滅すれば次のアリが独占し、それが壊滅すれば又次のアリが独占する。この約14時間の実験で3種類のアリ、15000匹以上を退治した。
【0032】
【発明の効果】
部屋内に入るアリは壁の透き間や軒下等に巣を作る。大多数が3〜5000匹の小さな巣なので3〜4時間で巣の中のアリまで全滅できる。
【0033】
蜂蜜など無毒の餌でアリを集め水に沈める方法で退治するので、台所や子供部屋、犬猫のえさ場でも安心して使用できる環境に優しいアリ退治器である。
【0034】
この器具では水底に沈むアリの数が次々に増えるので確実に退治されていく様子が分かり、最後には餌場に全く出てこなくなるので一目で壊滅状態が分かる。
【0035】
この器具があれば、いつでも確実に退治できるという安心感が持てる。自動のアリ退治器を使えば手間を掛ける必要もない。

[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Ants have a strong sense of smell and nature and do not eat poisonous bait, so there are problems with extermination with poisonous bait. It is difficult to get rid of the ants in the nest with aerosols and acaricides. Large-scale administration of termite repellents has health problems. Ant control containers have difficulty finding ant nests and have problems with using bait.
With the aim of solving these problems, the present invention attracts ants that gather in the room, under the eaves, dog and cat food, etc., to the ants in the nest with non-toxic food such as honey and sugar, The purpose is to provide a method and apparatus for killing ants collected in a feeding area by submerging them in water.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
Ants eat and eat for 2 to 30 minutes so that they can be sucked in if they give non-toxic food such as honey. In addition, ants who have found non-toxic food return to their nests and communicate to friends and bring them together in a procession. If the feeding area is full, the procession will stagnate. If you continue to open the feeding area, the procession will continue until the nest is empty. Utilizing such ant behavior, the invention was completed by manufacturing an ant extermination device using the ant extermination method as a means to solve the above problems. That is,
[0006]
A feeding ground is set up where ants appear, and ants in the nest are collected at the feeding ground using a non-toxic food such as honey.
The ants gathered so that the procession of ants hitting the feeding ground does not stagnate one after another on the saucer, empty the feeding ground, and continue the procession until the nest is empty.
Pour water in the saucer, add a small amount of detergent to remove surface tension, and let the fallen ants sink to the bottom at once.
[0007]
The manual ant extermination device of the present invention includes a bait feather portion, an operation portion, and a saucer portion.
The automatic ant extermination device of the present invention includes a bait feather portion, an operation portion, and a saucer portion.
The present invention is a method of attracting ants in a nest in a procession using non-toxic bait.
The present invention is a method in which a detergent is added to the water in a saucer and the ants are submerged to the bottom at once.
[0008]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
In the production of the equipment, there are three parts: the feeding wing part that collects ants in the feeding area, the operation part that works to shake off the collected ants on the dish, and the saucer part that receives the ant dropped and sinks in the water and extinguishes it. The ant extermination device is constructed to attract ants with non-toxic bait and submerge them in water.
[0009]
Although two types of FIG. 1 and FIG. 3 were shown in the Example of an instrument, it comprised by 3 parts of a bait feather part, an operation part, and a saucer part. FIG. 1 shows a manually operated instrument that uses a piston as an operation unit and moves the feed feather by pushing the piston with a finger. FIG. 3 shows an automatic operation instrument that automatically operates the feed feather using a motor and timer in the operation unit. Both of them are the same in the technical field of the present invention.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[Example 1]
FIG. 1 is a sketch of a manual ant extermination device comprising (1) a bait feather part, (2) an operation part, and (3) a saucer part, and FIG. 2 is a sectional view for explaining the structure.
{Circle around (1)} The bait wing portion is composed of a wing shaft 11, a string 12, a bait wing 13, a bait area 14, and a string fixing hole 15, and is a part that collects ants in the bait area 14. The bait 13 is configured such that the wing tip lands on both flat grounds from the wing shaft 11 on both sides across the cylinder 22 across the receiving tray 32, and the ground contact portion of the wing is used as the feeding area 14. A non-toxic bait is applied to the feeding ground 14 on the flat ground to collect ants, and when the feeding ground is full, the piston is pushed to drop the ants on the tray and empty the feeding ground.
{Circle around (2)} The operation part is a part composed of a piston 21, a cylinder 22, and a support hole 23, and serves to drop the ants collected at the feeding place 14 onto the tray 32. The cylinder 22 is installed upright on a mounting base 31 in the center of the tray, and a support hole 23 is opened at a position 4 cm below. The piston 21 was inserted therein, the bait 13 was fixed with a string through the piston tip and the support hole 23, and the bait was operated by moving the piston.
[0011]
When the piston 21 is pushed, the string is pulled into the cylinder 22 from the support hole 23, and the wing tip is lifted from the wing shaft 11 and hits the cylinder in the inverted state. The ant in the feeding area 14 was shaken off on the tray 32 by moving the piston up and down and putting the wings on the cylinder. When the string was pulled into the cylinder, the piston tip was shaved so that the string was not pinched between the piston and the cylinder.
[0012]
(3) The tray part is a container having a water reservoir composed of a mounting base 31, a tray 32, a water reservoir 33, a cylinder fixing plate 34, and a cylinder fixing hole 35. It is the part that works to sink and get rid of. The mounting base 31 was bonded to the center of the tray so that the ants were shaken off at the center of the tray 32, and a hole was made in the cylinder fixing plate 34 for firmly mounting the cylinder 22 and the tip of the cylinder was inserted and fixed. In addition, water was kept shallow in the saucer, and a little detergent was added to remove the surface tension of the water so that the ants would sink to the bottom of the water at once.
[0013]
In this instrument, a mounting base 31 is bonded to the center of a receiving tray 32, a piston 21 is erected on the mounting base, both wing shafts 11 are mounted across the lower portion of a cylinder 22, and the receiving shaft 32 is started from the wing shaft. A bait feather 13 is attached to the outside, and if the piston is pushed, the bait feather is lifted through the string. The ant collected in the bait area 14 of the bait feather part is pushed by pushing the piston 21 of the operation part. It is an ant extermination device which lifts the feeding place 14 up to 32 and puts it on the cylinder 22, shakes it on the tray and sinks it in the water reservoir 33 to get rid of it.
[0014]
[Example 2]
FIG. 3 is a partial cross-sectional view of an automatic ant extermination device comprising a 101 bait unit, a 102 operation unit (automation), and a 103 tray unit, and FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram of the bait unit.
[0015]
The bait wing portion 101 includes a shaft hole 111, a wing hole 112, a wing plate 113, a wing support 114, a bait wing 115, and a feeding area 116, and is a part that collects ants in the feeding area 116. The shaft hole 111, the wing hole 112, the wing 113, the wing support 114, the bait 115, and the feeding area 116 are shown in FIG. The wing 113 was formed into a columnar shape having a length of 1.5 cm and a height of 2 cm, and a motor bearing hole 111 was opened at the center in the vertical direction and attached to the motor shaft. The bait 115 was attached to the four side surfaces at a position 5 mm from above. Each wing was allowed to move freely up and down, and two wing holes 112 were opened and fixed to the wing 113 with a string so as not to roll when rotating. And when the wings are raised, the upper part of the strap is moved so that it can be bent up and down so that the upper part is not stretched.
[0016]
In addition, in order to use the wing tips as a feeding area 116, the position of 2 cm from the tip was bent and only the wing tips were grounded to the bottom surface in a state of being almost horizontal. If it is perfectly level and the entire surface is grounded, the friction with the bottom surface is too large at the beginning of rotation. For the wing support 114, a slightly larger plate was adhered to the lower part of the wing support 113 so that the wing tip would not be caught by the ground plate when the operation box 125 was placed on the receiving tray 131 with the wing tip always kept slightly open. In order to make it easy to apply food to the feeding area 116, cloth tape was applied to prevent the food from flying by rotation, and food was collected on it to collect ants.
[0017]
The operation unit 102 includes a battery 121, a manual switch 122, an automatic switch 123, a timer 124, a motor 126, and a brush 127 arranged in an operation box 125, and serves to drop the ants collected at the feeding place 116 onto the receiving tray 131. Part. The manual switch 122 is a direct circuit from the battery to the motor. When the switch is pressed, the motor 126 immediately rotates, the bait 115 connected to it rotates, rises from the ground surface, and accelerates at the horizontal position of the feather stop 113, The ants are shaken off on the tray 131. If the automatic switch 123 is turned on by an automatic circuit switch connected to the motor 126 from the battery 121 via the timer 124, the motor automatically rotates for 10 seconds every 15 minutes as instructed by the timer to rotate the bait. Let the ants shake off on the saucer.
[0018]
The ants collected at the feeding ground 116 on the flat ground by the rotation of the feeding wing 115 are lifted up to the top of the tray 131 and shaken down to the water reservoir 135. The brush 127 serves to scavenge ants clinging to the feeding area so that the tip of the brush touches the position of the feeding area when the speed of rotation of the feathers increases and the wings rise to near the horizontal position. It also served as a brake on the rotation of the wings so that the bait was not blown off by the rotation.
[0019]
103 is a container having a water reservoir composed of a tray 131, a water stopper 132, an ant entrance 133, a ground plate 134, a water reservoir 135, and an empty plate 136, and the water received from the ant shaken off from the feeding ground 116. It is the part that works to sink and get rid of. The center of the bottom of the container was cut out in a round shape, and a water stopper 132 was formed in the outer part of the container to make it waterproof and collect water (easy to use plastic). Attach a grounding plate 134 (thin tin plate) with a 5mm-high hollow plate 136 between the bottom four corners of the container and place a thin small tin plate on the flat ground, and ants walk on it without resistance. I did it. A tray 131 having a water reservoir 135 having a round cavity in the center is formed 5 mm above the ground plate (flat ground). In the water reservoir 135, the inner round water stopper 132 portion was lowered by 1.5 cm, the outer circumference was raised by 6 cm, and the operation box 125 was placed thereon.
[0020]
In this device, the ants collected at the feeding area 116 of the feeding wing part are rotated together with the feeding area 116 by rotating the motor 126 of the operation part, and the ants are shaken off by the centrifugal force of the motor rotation and submerged in the water reservoir 135. The operation box 125 is placed on the tray 131, the timer 124 is incorporated, and the motor is rotated according to the instruction. The operation box 125 and the tray 131 are separated when the bait is applied. This is to facilitate cleaning after ant extermination.
[0021]
The bait wing 115 extending from the operation box 125 placed on the saucer 131 passes through the round cavity and lands on the ground plate 134, collects ants at the wing feeding area 116, and rotates to the top of the water reservoir 135 together with the feeding area. Lift and sprinkle ants into the water reservoir with rotating centrifugal force. Many ants are blown to the side by the high-speed rotation of the wings and hit the side wall and fall into the water reservoir. The grounding plate 134 attached to the bottom is to smoothly rotate the bait 115 on the grounding plate on uneven grounds of any adverse condition when the equipment is installed in various places.
[0022]
Example 3
With a manual ant extermination device, sugar solution is applied to the feeding area 14 in FIG. 1 and about 5 mm of water is stored in the saucer 32. A few drops of detergent is used to eliminate the ant in the living room. The length of this ant is about 2.1 mm. It is an ant with a wide range of action that walks quickly. As shown in the table below, it was annihilated in 2 days while recording the time and number of exterminations. Immediately after the start of the experiment, there were times when it was difficult to count because ants gathered at the number of close to 100 per minute, but the number was recorded using a magnifying lens, and the number was recorded and submerged in the water reservoir 33, so there was little error. I think.
[0023]
Day 1 (14 / 8.30) Day 2 (8.31)
9:25 Start of experiment (defeat the remaining ants at the same place)
(Processing at 10 minutes after the start) 8:00 Start of experiment 10:30 3850 killed 9:00 2130 killed 11:30 2630 10:00 940 12:30 1740 11:00 612 Animals: 13:30 1460 animals: 12:00 380 animals: 14:30 930 animals: 13:00 25 animals: 15:30 870 animals: 1400 Lost (total of 1480 on the first day) (total of 4087 on the second day)
[0024]
In this way, the same ant nest was annihilated in two days and annihilated. The total extermination time was about 10 hours, and the total number of exterminations was 15567, which was a large ant nest. I think eggs, larvae and pupae remain in the nest. But since the parent ants were annihilated, the larvae could not carry food and the larvae and eggs would die. After the pupae emerge, they will be destroyed once they are destroyed.
[0025]
Example 4
"Sato Ali" exterminated in the kitchen using the same equipment
This ant has a body length of about 2 mm, and its walking is slow and its range of action is narrow. This was also divided into two days and exterminated as shown in the table below.
[0026]
Day 1 (14.9.1) Day 2 (9.2)
19:00 Start experiment (defeat the remaining ants at the same place)
(Starting in 3 minutes after the start) 20:00 Start of experiment ~ 20: 00 2150 killed ~ 21: 00 565 killed ~ 21: 00 1610 ~ 22: 00 124 (discontinued in 2 hours) 1 hour and a half later → 0 (total of 3760 animals on day 1) (total of 689 animals on day 2)
[0027]
It was annihilated in two days. The total number of exterminations for two days was 4449, and the extermination time was about 3.5 hours. I think that larvae and eggs will die when their parents are annihilated. Wait for the emergence of pupae and get rid of it once again and the whole nest will be destroyed.
[0028]
As can be seen from the above table, about 4 to 5,000 ant nests lose their momentum after about half of the ants gather at the feeding area in the first hour. In the large ant nest that exceeds 15,000, the momentum of the procession is strong, and after about 2 half of the whole nest gathers in 2 hours, the momentum decreases. In addition, ants push in line at day and night if they feed, and the line disappears if they refrain from food, so in order to get rid of efficiently with a manual ant extermination device, set up equipment at dinner preparation time etc. in about 1 hour It is efficient to stop and get rid of it in several times. About 4 to 5000 ant nests can be annihilated by extermination 2-3 times.
[0029]
Example 5
Several types of ants that have been killed under the eaves by feeding honey using an automatic ant extermination device,
If the automatic switch 123 is turned on, the feeding wing 115 rotates every 15 minutes for 10 seconds, and the ant of the feeding place 116 is shaken off on the tray 131 and submerged in the water reservoir 135 to be exterminated.
[0030]
(15.6.5)
17:00-A few minutes after installing the experiment starting equipment, several small ants and large ants gathered at the feeding place 116 and were fighting the feeding place, so they were left without turning on the automatic switch.
18:00
The small black ant wins and monopolizes the feeding ground, so a line is formed. First, the manual switch 122 is pushed to drop the ant on the feeding ground 116 onto the tray 131 and then the feeding ground is opened, and then the automatic switch 123 is turned on.
21:00
The number of ants seemed to be more than 5000, sinking to the bottom of the water and becoming completely black. This ant was annihilated and several red ants about 3mm in size were gathered in the feeding area.
23:00
At the bottom of the water, red ants piled up on the black ants and turned red, and the procession to the feeding ground 116 continued endlessly. At this point, I thought that 4 to 5000 red ants were sinking. Since the food was low, I replenished the food and went to the floor.
5:00 the next morning
During the night, the red ants were annihilated, and instead of red ants, ordinary black ants of about 5 mm swarmed at the feeding area 116 and pushed in line. The black ants piled up on the bottom of the water and changed from red to black. I was replenished because the food was low.
8:00
The bottom of the water was filled with black ant carcasses, and there was no one in the feeding area. Instead, small black ants of less than 2 mm gathered. The experiment was stopped here.
[0031]
In this way, various kinds of ants are searching for food under the eaves. Different ants start fighting for the same bait, but ants with strong cooperation win and monopolize the bait. As you can see in this experiment, if an ant that monopolizes food is destroyed, the next ant will monopolize, and if it is destroyed, the next ant will monopolize. In this approximately 14-hour experiment, three types of ants, more than 15,000, were eradicated.
[0032]
【The invention's effect】
Ants that enter the room make nests in the walls and under the eaves. Most of them are small nests of 3 to 5000, so that the ants in the nest can be annihilated in 3 to 4 hours.
[0033]
It is an environmentally friendly ant extermination device that can be used safely in the kitchen, children's room, and dog and cat's feed area because it collects ants with non-toxic food such as honey and submerges them in water.
[0034]
With this instrument, the number of ants sinking to the bottom of the water increases one after another, so you can see how they are getting rid of them reliably.
[0035]
With this instrument, you can feel secure that you can always get rid of it. If you use an automatic ant extermination device, you don't have to worry.
