JPH03292843A - Extermination of plant-parasitic vermin by electric current - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To exterminate plant-parasitic vermin by placing a pair of electrodes in a parasitic region of vermin interposing a prescribed distance and passing electric current between the electrodes. CONSTITUTION:A pair of electrodes 2, 2 are placed in a parasitic region 1 (e.g. a pine 1a or lawn 1b) interposing a prescribed distance and an electric current is passed through the region containing sufficient water for passing electric current between the electrodes 2, 2 (3: wire, 4: power source, 5: weight).

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION <Industrial Application Field> The present invention is directed to a method for exterminating and exterminating pests that parasitize plants, such as pine carnivorous insects.

<Conventional technology> Conventionally, pesticides and the like have been sprayed in the air using helicopters, etc. in an attempt to exterminate and exterminate the pine-eating insect (pine nematode) that parasitizes pine trees and causes them to wither, but this method is not only ineffective but also However, there are problems such as the pesticides being directly inhaled by humans and animals, or being washed away by rainwater, contaminating river water, and being indirectly absorbed by humans and animals, causing damage such as middle-aged children. Similarly, golf course・l! Similar damage occurs when pesticides are sprayed to exterminate pests living in gardens, etc.

<Problems to be Solved by the Invention> In light of the above, there is a need for a method for exterminating plant-parasitic pests that are harmless to humans and livestock.

An object of the present invention is to provide a method for exterminating plant-parasitic pests by applying electricity, which solves the above-mentioned problems.

<Means for solving the problem> This will be explained with reference to the drawings. In order to achieve the above object, the method of exterminating plant-parasitic pests by applying electricity according to the present invention includes disposing a pair of electrodes 2, 2 at a predetermined distance in the parasitic area 1 of the pests, , 2 contains enough moisture for current to flow between the electrodes 2 and 2.

<Function> The method for exterminating and exterminating plant-parasitic pests by energizing as described above, when applied to the pest-infested area 1 containing sufficient moisture, eliminates the parasitic pests between the electrodes 2 and 2. Electrocute and exterminate. Furthermore, it is completely harmless to humans and animals other than between the electrodes 2 and 2.

<Example> An example will be described with reference to the drawings. First, as for the method of exterminating and exterminating pine insects, as shown in Figs. Or, remove electrode 2 by pouring water, etc.
If possible, energize the electrodes 2 and 2 when there is sufficient moisture to conduct electricity, preferably at night or during rain when no one is in the area. After 3 to 5 minutes of energization, there may be an intermittent power outage, etc. It is best to do this about 3 times.

Note that 3 and 3 are conductive wires, and 4 is a battery, a generator, etc., or a power supply device supplied from an electric power company. Various shapes can be considered for the electrode 2, such as plate-shaped, needle-shaped, and net-shaped, but are not limited to these. They are used by wrapping the needles around the tree, and by sticking the needles into the trunk. By doing so, the pine feeding insects parasitic between the electrodes 2 and 2 of the pine 1a are completely exterminated and become extinct.

The effect of this energization is that when a pair of electrodes is immersed in a stream and energized, crucian carp, carp, eel, shrimp, etc. are electrocuted and float to the surface, and when electrodes are inserted into a sandy beach at low tide and energized, shrimp, etc. This can also be understood from things such as jumping out.

Moreover, it can be understood that the space between the electrodes needs to contain sufficient moisture for current to flow.

This method can be used not only in mountains and fields, but also at famous and historic sites such as shrines and temples, and in parks where people gather.
, 2. Conductors 3, 3, and power supply device 4 are prepared, and are normally not energized, but are energized at night or during rainy hours when poets are not present, or by setting up a restricted area and preventing people from entering. If you prevent it from entering, it is completely harmless and applicable.

This method is effective not only for eradicating pine carnivorous insects, but also for all kinds of pests that parasitize plants. It can also be applied to types.

For example, when applied to pests parasitic on the lawn 1b of a golf course, details will be explained with reference to Fig. 3.
A copper wire mesh is used as the electrodes 2,2. This wire mesh is 3
Various sizes such as m, 5 m, 10 m, etc. are possible.

Place the wire mesh electrodes 2, 2 on the lawn 1b where pests are present, place a weight 5.5 mm such as a round bar on top of the electrodes 2, 2, and bring them into close contact with the ground between the electrodes 2, 2. When the electrodes are energized for 5 minutes and then intermittent energized for about 3 times with a short pause in a state that contains enough moisture for energization, the pests on the lawn 1b between the electrodes 2 and 2 are completely killed.

<Effects of the Invention> Since the present invention is configured as described above, when applied to the pest-infested area 1 containing sufficient moisture, the parasitic pests can be electrocuted between the electrodes 2 and 2. make them extinct. Furthermore, it is completely harmless to humans and animals other than between the electrodes 2 and 2.
