Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a cockroach extinguishing apparatus that exterminates cockroaches.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Currently, there are about 4000 species of cockroaches in the world, of which 59 species are confirmed in Japan. In particular, in Japan, many Japanese cockroaches have been seen in the past, but nowadays, foreign species such as German cockroaches and black cockroaches due to the recent changes in the environment, for example, the spread of concrete architecture and heating. Is currently occurring in large quantities. In addition, cockroaches with increased resistance to pesticides such as insecticides and smoke smoke have begun to appear and are now counted as one of urban pollution.
[0003]
In this way, various measures have been taken to eliminate cockroaches, one of the urban pollutions.
Here, cockroach control measures can be broadly classified.
(1) Environmental extermination by eliminating the food that cockroaches eat by cleaning.
(2) Physical disinfection with sticky traps and traps.
(3) Chemical disinfection by spraying with residual drugs, smoke, poisonous bait.
It is. In general, these means are appropriately selected and used depending on the place where cockroaches are exterminated.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, there are several problems with the above-mentioned cockroach control.
First, the environmental control listed above is limited as long as humans live, and even human hair can be a bait for cockroaches, so it cannot be said to be an aggressive means to completely eliminate cockroaches.
[0005]
The following physical exterminations are safe for people and pets and are environmentally friendly. However, in order to increase the efficiency of cockroach extermination, the number of installations must be increased.
[0006]
Lastly, the chemical control listed in the last section has become more airtight in modern homes, and the integration of kitchens and living rooms has increased, so the use of insecticides and smoke control agents such as insecticides and smokers is rather difficult for pets and people. Therefore, it is necessary to pay careful attention to handling such as paying attention to the amount of disinfectant used. Moreover, as described above, the appearance of antibody cockroaches against these extermination drugs makes their usage even more difficult due to the balance between extermination and safety.
[0007]
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a cockroach extinguishing apparatus having a simple configuration and high safety while improving cockroach extinguishing efficiency.
[0008]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to solve the above problems, a cockroach extermination apparatus according to the present invention has taken the following technical means.
[0009]
A heat source part that maintains the temperature preferred by cockroaches is provided in one space part formed by partitioning the inside of the box with a heat conductive plate, and a cockroach capturing part and / or a cockroach poison bait part are provided in the other space parts, respectively. An openable / closable lid that exposes both spaces on the body, a communication hole that communicates the other space with the outside, and an exhaust port for releasing warm air in the box warmed by the heat source. Was provided.
[0010]
According to the above technical means, by maintaining the temperature preferred by cockroaches by the heat source part, for example, 25 to 30 degrees Celsius, heat is transferred to the adjacent cockroach capturing part and / or cockroach poison bait part via the heat conduction plate. Warm up. The warmed air is exhausted from a communication hole that serves as an entrance / exit of the cockroach and an exhaust port , and the cockroach in the outside world recognizes that the inside of the device is warm and draws the cockroach.
[0011]
At the same time, when the cockroach poison bait is used, the poison bait is warmed to create an “odor” that attracts cockroaches. In order to further improve the pulling effect of cockroaches due to this odor, a gel-like gel mainly composed of gravy, alcohol, starch, and oil is applied to the heat conduction plate, and the heat source part generates heat. This is preferable because the odor is emitted when the coating material volatilizes.
And when the cockroach attracted attracts the poison bait part for cockroaches, it will die by eating the poison bait. In addition, if a cockroach capture unit is used, it will eventually die because it cannot escape. If either is adopted, cockroaches will die by either action.
[0012]
In addition, by making the cockroach extermination device into a box which is a substantially closed space, a so-called artificial nest is formed in which a high temperature and humidity, a narrow gap and a vertical place which cockroaches prefer. By doing so, cockroaches are liable to lurk, and cockroaches are further attracted by the droppings containing a pheromone substance that attracts the likes (claim 1).
[0013]
The heat source section described above is preferably a detachable chemical warmer that generates oxidation heat (Claim 2), or an electric heater that rises to a required temperature for killing cockroaches after a predetermined time (Claim 3). ).
[0014]
The cockroach capturing part is preferably a detachable adhesive trap (Claim 4), and the cockroach bait part is preferably a poison bait mixed with boric acid (Claim). 5).
[0015]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. The cockroach extermination apparatus of this embodiment has illustrated the suitable thing which attracts many cockroaches and leads to death. In the figure, symbol F indicates a cockroach extermination device, symbol E indicates a box, symbol G indicates a cockroach bait, symbol H indicates a heat source, and symbol I indicates a cockroach capturing unit.
[0016]
The cockroach extermination device in this embodiment includes a box E, a heat source part H, a cockroach capturing part I, and a cockroach poison bait part G.
[0017]
As shown in FIG. 1, the box E is formed in a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape, and a lid D that can be opened and closed via a hinge (not shown) is provided at the top, and the opening and closing direction of the lid D is provided. The heat conducting plate 1 is erected in the box E in the same direction as the two spaces B and C. This space portion is a space portion C in which the heat source portion H is accommodated in the space portion formed on the lid base side, and the space portion formed on the lid open end side is the cockroach capturing portion I and the cockroach poison bait portion G. The other space portion B is stored.
[0018]
This box E is comprised with the member which has heat insulation, and maintains the inside warmed by the thermal radiation from the heat-source part H. The member having the heat insulating property may be any member as long as it can exert a heat insulating effect, and may be configured such that a heat insulating sheet is attached to a synthetic resin member such as plastic.
[0019]
The one space C described above is formed with a required width to which a later-described chemical warmer can be removably inserted, and a guide rod 5 for guiding and holding the chemical warmer on the inner side of the component plate on the hinge portion side. Is provided at a predetermined interval, and sufficient air is supplied to the chemical warmer through a gap formed between the guide rods 5.
[0020]
In addition, the other space B formed with the heat conducting plate 1 interposed therebetween is formed with a required width such that a later-described adhesive trap is detachable and a cockroach can go back and forth with the adhesive trap inserted. A mounting plate 4 is mounted so as to stand up from the middle of the heat conducting plate 1 in the height direction, and is further bent below the mounting plate 4 into a substantially U-shape. A feeding plate 1-1 that is formed and on which poisonous bait is placed protrudes from the base end of the heat conduction plate 1.
[0021]
The feeding plate 1-1 is composed of the same member that is continuous with the heat conducting plate 1, and the heat generated from the chemical warmer that is the heat source H is transferred through the heat conducting plate 1, and the feeding plate 1- As the poison bait placed on No. 1 is warmed, a “smell” is created.
In addition, since this mounting plate 4 uses a poisonous bait mixed with boric acid, although it is low poisonous, it serves as a cover for preventing anything other than insects such as cockroaches from touching other than the poisoning bait location. In addition, since the feeding plate 1-1 is bent in a substantially U shape, things other than insects such as cockroaches cannot be directly in contact with each other, and the safety standards of the Pharmaceutical Affairs Law are cleared.
[0022]
The front surface of the box E is provided with a communication hole that communicates the other space portion B with the outside world. The communication hole is opened near the bottom surface and is mainly used for entrance and exit of cockroaches. E The exhaust port 3 is formed at a substantially intermediate portion in the height direction of the front surface of the E front surface with a predetermined interval and is mainly used to discharge warmed internal air.
Convection is generated in the box E by the entrance 2 and the exhaust port 3 having different heights, and warm air mixed with the smell of food is released from the exhaust port 3 so that cockroaches are attracted to the device F. It is supposed to be.
[0023]
The heat source H is a commercially available chemical warmer that generates oxidation heat and is extremely inexpensive and is detachably stored in the space C of the box E described above.
[0024]
The cockroach capturing section I is an assembly-type commercially available adhesive trap, and is detachably installed upright in the other space B of the box E so that the entrance of the adhesive trap is positioned up and down. As described above, when the adhesive trap is set up, it is most suitable for a cockroach having a habit of resting on the wall surface, and the cockroach capturing rate is improved.
[0025]
The cockroach poison bait portion G is configured by mixing boric acid into a bait mixed with cereals, starch, meat, sugar, oil, etc., as preferred by main cockroaches such as German cockroaches and black cockroaches. Alcohols may be mixed so that the smell of the bait is increased. In that case, the smell is emitted with the volatilization of the alcohol.
[0026]
Next, a cockroach extermination procedure using the cockroach extermination device according to the present embodiment configured as described above will be described.
First, a commercially available chemical warmer taken out of the bag by opening the lid D of the box E is inserted into one space C, and a commercially available adhesive trap assembled in the other space B is positioned at the top and bottom of the cockroach entrance. Insert as you do.
[0027]
Next, poison bait is inserted through the entrance 2 for entrance and exit of cockroaches, the poison bait is placed in the back of the feeding plate 1-1, and installed in a corner of the kitchen where cockroaches appear to be lurking.
Eventually, chemical warmers react with air (oxygen) to generate heat of oxidation. The generated heat is transferred through the heat conducting plate 1, and the internal temperature of the entire other space B having the cockroach capturing part I and the cockroach bait part G rises to about 30 degrees.
[0028]
When a temperature difference from the outside occurs, convection occurs in the box E at the inlet / outlet 2 and the exhaust port 3, and warm air mixed with the smell of food is released from the exhaust port 3.
Cockroaches that sense the smell of food with the sense of touch and the air gate are drawn to the device F and enter from the entrance 2 or the exhaust port 3.
Incoming cockroaches are exterminated by eating poisonous bait or being caught in sticky traps.
[0029]
The cockroach that was not captured by the sticky trap at this time learned and memorized that the device F was suitable for feeding and becoming a warm nest. It excretes and inhabits the feces that contain the pheromone substance to attract. Moreover, since this chemical body warms for about 30 to 40 hours, it is considered that the number of activities by the cockroach's body clock is about 5 to 6 times, and that the poison bait is eaten at least once.
[0030]
Cockroaches that have eaten poison baits kill the cockroach's digestive function, which is responsible for cockroach digestion, by boric acid, deprive cockroaches of digestive function, and thin and die until it is about 1/4 of the state before the bait is eaten. .
[0031]
Cockroaches trapped in sticky traps gradually weaken and die while producing the attraction effect of cockroaches, without giving out a dangerous pheromone that informs friends that it is dangerous unless directly harmed. This has not been scientifically elucidated, but is known).
[0032]
After the heat generation of the chemical body warmer is completed, if a large amount of cockroaches are generated, the chemical body warmer is replaced as appropriate (about 3 times a week) and the removal is continued.
When it is desired to finish the removal, the inlet / outlet 2 and the exhaust outlet 3 are sealed with an adhesive tape or the like in consideration of the existence of cockroaches in the apparatus F, and then discarded.
[0033]
In this way, by using a sticky trap with a poison bait, if cockroaches are captured in the sticky trap, it can be seen that cockroaches several times as many as that, and even if they are not captured by the sticky trap, they eat the poison bait. It becomes a standard of the possibility of being. In addition, the number of cockroaches captured by the adhesive trap is also preferred because it will be data for the next installation site.
[0034]
In addition, since the effect of poison bait is effective for about half a year, even if it is left as it is, there is an extermination effect, and leaving as it is is optional.
[0035]
As mentioned above, although the cockroach extermination apparatus in this embodiment was demonstrated, it is not limited to this, The combination of only the heat source part H and the cockroach capture part I, and the combination of the heat source part H and the bait part G for cockroaches may be sufficient. It is.
[0036]
Moreover, although the heat source part H in this embodiment demonstrated what used the commercially available chemical warmer, it may be comprised with the electric heater which incorporated the thermostat and the temperature control timer, and in this case, the cockroach was drawn. It is extremely preferable that the temperature can be increased up to about 80 degrees Celsius at which the cockroaches are killed at an interval of about three days.
[0037]
【The invention's effect】
Since the present invention is configured as described above, the following advantageous effects can be obtained.
According to claim 1, the heat generated by the heat source part is transferred to the adjacent cockroach capturing part and / or cockroach bait part through the heat conduction plate to warm the inside, and is heated from the communication hole that also serves as the entrance / exit of the cockroach. Since the air is exhausted and the cockroach in the outside recognizes that the inside of the device is warm, the cockroach can be attracted and removed more than the conventional cockroach capturing means depending on room temperature.
[0038]
In addition, when the cockroach poison bait is used at the same time, the poison bait is warmed to generate a `` smell '', and the scented air is exhausted, so more cockroaches can be drawn, By eating, cockroaches are killed, and cockroach extermination efficiency can be dramatically increased compared to conventional cockroach capturing means that depend on room temperature.
[0039]
In addition, when adopting a cockroach capture unit, unless it causes direct harm, it does not issue a dangerous pheromone that informs the friend that it is dangerous. Since the cockroach attracts the cockroach and gradually weakens and eventually dies, the cockroach extermination efficiency can be dramatically increased compared to the conventional room-dependent cockroach capture means.
Furthermore, when both are employed, many cockroaches can be attracted and exterminated by either action.
[0040]
In addition, by making the cockroach extermination device into a box that is a substantially enclosed space, it becomes a so-called artificial nest that forms a high temperature and humidity, narrow gaps and vertical places that cockroaches prefer, so many cockroaches are the main inhabitants. It can then be transferred to the device, where it can be pulled and removed in bulk by dropping the dung containing pheromone material that attracts the same.
[0041]
According to the second aspect, since the heat source part is a chemical warmer, an inexpensive and highly safe cockroach extinguishing apparatus can be provided.
[0042]
According to the third aspect of the present invention, since the electric heater is used, the replacement of the heat source part can be omitted, and the third extinguishing means is configured to rise to a required temperature at which cockroaches are killed after a predetermined time elapses. Because it is equipped with, it can be surely extermination of many cockroaches.
[0043]
According to the fourth aspect, since the cockroach capturing part is made a detachable adhesive trap, an inexpensive and highly safe cockroach extinguishing apparatus can be provided.
[0044]
According to claim 5, by making the cockroach poison bait a poison bait mixed with boric acid, the microorganisms in the cockroach responsible for the cockroach digestion function are killed, and the digestion function of the cockroach is consequently taken away. Since it is exterminated, it is possible to provide a cockroach extinguishing apparatus that is inexpensive, highly safe, and capable of exterminating cockroaches with certainty.
Thus, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a highly suitable cockroach extinguishing apparatus having a simple configuration and high safety.
