Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to a container containing an insect repellent which is intended to be completely harmless to the human body.

11, Oninni □
There are various varieties of garlic, such as □ and Hime Garlic, but all of them have extremely strong odor components overall, especially in the bulbous part, and are used for medicinal purposes such as spices, seasonings, and tonics. The word is well known.

Garlic's odor is said to be based on the amino acid allin, and when ground, it outperforms allicin, which has antibacterial properties, and combines with vitamin B1 to form thiamine (thiamin disulfide), which is released into the human body. It has a high absorption rate and is said to have a tonic effect.

Congeners of such compounds are also present in perennial plants of the Liliaceae family, such as chives, rakkyo, green onions, and tako green onions, but the amount is slightly smaller than that of garlic.

In any case, since the above-mentioned plants have the property of repelling pests even during cultivation, there are attempts to use them as insect repellents, but textile products,
For products that are intended to be used directly without heating or steaming, such as paper products, residue, or foods such as biscuits and rice crackers, it is undesirable because of the strong odor, but on the other hand, For raw materials such as grains that undergo heating, steaming, etc., even if a strong odor is adsorbed during storage, it will have little effect on the resulting secondary product. , can accomplish its purpose without any hindrance.

However, it is usually only used on a household scale by hanging raw garlic in a rice bin or the like.

If raw garlic is used, it will add moisture to rice grains that should be kept dry, and the garlic itself will grow mold and rot, making it unable to withstand long-term use.

Therefore, for large-scale insect control, halogen or sulfur compounds such as methyl bromide, chloropicrin or carbon disulfide are still used; It is also harmful to humans and animals.

This invention was made in view of the current situation, and provides a container containing an insect repellent, which is characterized by packaging dried crushed garlic pieces, powder, or a mixture thereof in an air-permeable container. It is.

The details of this idea are described below.

The garlic that is used in this invention includes not only the garlic of various car models, but also the perennial plants of the lily family, such as chives, rakkyo, green onions, and tapune onions, due to their strong odor. , garlic is most preferred.

Although these eight leaf parts may be used, the bulb part is not particularly preferred.

Next, such garlic is finely chopped and dried.

The drying method may be strong drying using a conventional shelf dryer or rotary dryer, or natural drying such as sun drying, and at least 80% or more of the contained moisture is removed.

Furthermore, after drying, roasting the garlic cloves over low heat until the surface of the garlic pieces is charred to a light brown color will completely eliminate mold from forming on the garlic, which is an extremely desirable condition.

Garlic may be crushed into appropriate sizes after drying, but in order to increase the drying speed, it is better to shred garlic before drying.

When drying as described above, it goes without saying that some of the odor evaporates, but when drying to the above degree, most of the odor components are IT remaining in the solid material, and the insect repellent effect is reduced. There isn't.

Furthermore, the air-permeable container referred to in this invention is one made of fibers such as paper, non-woven fabrics, and woven fabrics, or a net-like or lattice-like body having a gap large enough to prevent the contents from passing through or falling. It is a container entirely or partially made of porous material or foam having open cells, and the material is organic,
It does not matter whether it is inorganic or not.

Moreover, the shape may be appropriately selected, such as bag-like, cylindrical, box-like, etc.

In short, the container is constructed so that the odor that evaporates from the contents during use gradually diffuses outside the container, but the debris or powder contained within does not fall out and mix with substances outside the container. If necessary, a thread or the like may be attached so that it can be hung.

Further, the container may be a disposable (one-way) container or a container whose contents can be replaced.

However, it is not a good idea for the odor to leak out before use, so packaging is required to further seal the container, but if it is a one-way container, it should be wrapped in non-permeable film, film, etc. It is also possible to make suitable holes in the material immediately before use.

Naka 1. The container containing insect repellent and medicine according to this invention is especially suitable for grains (e.g., grains such as rice, wheat, millet, millet, corn, etc., and legumes such as peas, soybeans, peanuts, kidney beans, etc.)
In addition to dry products made from these ingredients (e.g. flour,
It is also highly effective against soybean flour, rice flour, dried noodles) and lamb, etc., and can completely prevent the occurrence and reproduction of pests such as grain insects (LL)□.

In addition, if the container containing the insect repellent according to this invention is appropriately placed together with the object to be insect repelled in a storage room or a 5Q storage container, etc., the insect repellent effect will be achieved by filling the container with odor. can be done.

Furthermore, the container containing the insect repellent according to this invention does not have any adverse effects on human hygiene, and its significance should be highly evaluated.

Example 1 Finely chop about 100 f of garlic (bulbs), dry it naturally in the sun for about 168 hours, then roast it on a frying pan over low heat until the surface turns light brown.
1 dried garlic was obtained.

Approximately 202 pieces of this dried garlic (1 in Figure 1) are
Packed in a Japanese paper bag (2 in the figure) of approximately 7 crr1 x 7 crr1, and a rice jar (capacity approximately 9) containing approximately 20 to 9 rice.
6 liters) was hung in the space.

It was left in this state for one year.

However, no occurrence of grain insects or deterioration of the dried garlic was observed, and when some of the rice was taken out and cooked, there was no garlic odor and no difference was observed from normal cooked rice. I couldn't.

Example 2 Dried garlic pieces obtained by the same method as Example 1 2
01 (1 in Figure 2) into a glass cup (4 in the same figure) with a volume of about 150, and put about 0.5
It has more than 10 m-diameter small holes (5 in the same figure) for close contact. A lid made of Shirasuk (button 6 in the same figure) was attached and fixed to one corner of the rice bin, and approximately 20% of rice was poured into the lid from above.

Keep the lid on the rice pot at all times, remove the required amount of water from the bottom, and add rice to the pot about every week. I opened the lid and added about 20 kg of rice.

After repeating this operation, even after 7 months, there was no appearance of grain worms or any deterioration of the dried garlic.
The insect repellent effect was remarkable.
