Description

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (1) The present invention relates to / a new type of device for controlling insects, and more specifically to controlling crawling colonies and / or symbiotic insects, such as cockroaches and ants. α ▲ Controlling and reducing or eliminating insect populations is a difficult problem. Have proposed many solutions in related techniques and have used many insecticidal compounds: Among the existing solutions, 'the most common one is the county's second and fifth year's Zeng Jianfang and the related techniques Xu Xigan π β π sub. Thing. One of the many common solutions is to kill the worms by: or surface treatment of civicids or active ingredients. Regardless of the method used to control the worms, there is a need for further improvements. Improved methods to control insects. At the same time, it should be 1 长 long and suitable for controlling insects (any kind of equipment or traps or the like) and methods. Swarm and / or symbiotic insects refer to the nests or areas where they live together and / or have a mound together to feed or to-rest or-2 live or will return regularly: Symbiotic insects usually congregate in some places or areas— 埤, and social insects interact by contact or contact with the body or head or other body parts. Swarm and / or symbiotic insects are particularly difficult to control and kill, as most or at least a considerable part of them are generally hidden and cannot be directly handled. From n to, the position of the nest Λ will be substantially determined by others. Therefore, one object of the present invention is to control social and / or symbiotic insects. Another object of the present invention is to provide a more efficient device and method for producing social and / or symbiotic insects.

V. Description of the invention (2) All or part of the invention meets these objectives. The term "reptile insect" is used in a broad sense in the present invention and includes a traveling insect. The invention relates to a device for controlling social and / or symbiotic insects, including a bait and a plurality of channels. The inner surfaces of these channels are provided with a slow-acting insecticide, and there is at least one intersection between the channels. Preferably, the insects to be controlled are cockroaches, ants or termites. The channels usually form a network and the coating can be continuous or discontinuous. The device or system of the present invention is particularly efficient. It is more efficient because it provides several different opportunities for the same insect to obtain a certain dose of insecticide, preferably more than 2 times, more preferably more than 5 times the lethal dose of insecticide. The diversity of opportunities for loading or obtaining a certain amount of active ingredient is a particularly advantageous feature of the present invention. This feature of the present invention allows an insect to receive a lethal dose that allows the insect to have the opportunity to be administered to other insects during social and / or symbiotic interactions. Networks and channels allow insects to move through the channel quite freely. That is, the aisle is wide enough for insects to cross an aisle in reverse, swivel, or pass over a quince that has only walked or crawled in the aisle. The device of the present invention can be viewed as two frame covers or can be used as a container, box or trap. The word channel (= hannel) is used repeatedly in this description and stands for channel B, which is essentially B, although there are other words that can be applied as well. In this way, it is often difficult to see the channel from above. The passage is preferably a roundabout area. The network preferably has cross-channel connections. Cross-channel junction usually refers to a

Description of the invention (3) points, where there are at least two, ~ insects choose another channel. —The parent fork, so let the junction passing through the junction be the meeting point of several pipes. : In the specific embodiment of Xiangteyou, several different paths are used to cover the connection point to place bait, and insects can bait. Insect-reducing channels reach the same special crawling group of insects according to the foregoing description of the present invention. The special device is a controllable and preferably killing device including a bee home, a ant or a white sacrifice device. At least 2 tubular passages and parallel insecticides; the surface is covered with a coating containing b) at least 3 inlets; c) at least 1 crossover channel junction; "insecticide baits" are placed in cross-channel connections And I, tincture has a lethal effect of subsequent hairs and no knock-down effect. IL ^ is for illustrative purposes only, and the present invention can be more clearly understood with reference to the drawings, of which: A specific embodiment of the invention; Fig. 2 illustrates a variation of the embodiment of Fig. 1; and Figs. 3 and 4 illustrate another embodiment of the present invention. ... The device includes a number of alternating channels. Fig. I can be regarded as having 2 Intersecting salamanders, or 4 channels: i, 2, 3, 4 meet at a common junction 60 gates 8, allowing Kun 1 to 2, 3, 4 to crawl at the end of each channel Enter or climb out of the device. D: \ 54692. Ptd Page 6 l. Description of the invention (4)- --- ~, the bright bait 5 is located at the junction. Then kill the insects ^, 2, 3'4. In this way, the insects will reach the bait 5 through any coating on the channel, and they will mingle with the insecticide. The channel and connection of the device can be integrally formed into a single unit. For simplicity of assembly, as shown in Figure 2. The unit is installed in the connection. "The channel can be manufactured separately and the device usually includes known materials made of plastic. In a specific embodiment, the device includes two or more special tubes, usually including a plastic component, which forms a channel. Molded or extruded in a mold, in this example ^ 又 通 =. The device can be molded or shaped. Alternatively, the connection is made of cast iron, which is fastened to the internal linear connection. ^ = The tube-shaped pipe set includes pipes that are adhered or welded or attached 'in the same way' ... attached to; K :: = Sh means = reach. It can be =; bait is usually hard to be centered because people touch the Internet, even more mouthful! = Place, but preferably essentially invented / excellent :: Makes it difficult to reach the bait. At this place, but this is not an example. The 'cast' is located at the intersection and the channel connection. · Slow-acting activity-word, usually means ‘this insecticide cannot kill insects within minutes. Also began to die. Compared with the Π: effect, it means that the insects will not open immediately and also that the insects will not be picked up or eaten within 30 minutes of the insecticide. Page 7 D: \ 54692.ptd 5) Description of the invention (5) will be killed Pick up the insects and kill them! The dose and the rate of lethality depends on the time the insect spends in the device. In the present invention, the lethal rate is usually in the range of 30 minutes to 8 hours. The term slow-acting effect also includes the β-fatal lethal effect " The term "continuous lethal effect or lethal nature means that insecticides can kill not only insects that come into direct contact with insecticides but also direct Insects that have been exposed to insecticides can also kill insects that have a social and / or symbiotic relationship with insects that have been exposed to insecticides. The walls of the passage contain insecticides on their inner surfaces. The insecticide may cover the entire surface of the channel or only part of the surface. The fact that the active ingredient Z 4 or partially covers the surface 'is only related to the issue of whether the active ingredient can be conveniently applied to the surface. The covering usually exceeds 50% of the surface, preferably more than 80% of the surface. The total area of the inner surface of the insecticide coating is usually in the range of 10 to 100 cm 2, preferably 30 to 500 cm 2, and most preferably 50 to 200 cm 2. . By coating the cannula in the channel and leaning against the inner surface of the channel, the inner surface of the wall of the channel also contains pesticides. Such sleeves may be a film coated with insecticide or impregnated with insecticide. Alternatively, the cannula may be an incoherent strip of 3 pesticide, placed on the inner surface of the channel. The openings of the present invention cannot usually be distinguished by structure or nature. As mentioned above with reference to Figures 1 and 2, there are 4 openings. The device illustrated in Figs. 3 and 4 is equivalent to that of Fig. 1 and has only 3 openings. Of course, 5 more openings are also available. They are often holes that lead from the channel to the outside of the device. These pairs of open insects are called entrances or exits on work month b.

d: \ 54692. ptd page 8 5. Description of the invention (6) The channel length of the system of the present invention is usually in the range of 3 to 25 cm, preferably 5 to 20 cm, but outside of these ranges The length also works quite well. Longer channels allow insects to swallow more insecticide, while shorter channels stimulate insects to pass through the device. In general, the dose of insecticide on the inner surface of the device ranges from 10 to 100 mg per device, preferably 15 to 75 mg per device, and most preferably 25 to 50 mg per device. The amount of insecticide coverage per unit area is usually 0.01 mg to 10 mg / cm 2 per cm 2. The most advantageous baits are attractive baits, such as food or pheromones. When an insect has an incentive to go to the bait, or in other words, to go and try and eat it, the bait is considered attractive. When more than 50% of the passing insects directly contact the bait, it indicates that the insect has an incentive to remove the bait. The attracting properties of the bait may come from the insecticidal active ingredient itself, or from an adjuvant that is also contained in the bait. It is preferred that the bait can be attached to insects that come into contact with it. A thixotropic formulation is usually better because it is usually more readily available to insects. The best bait is a gel. The bait composition used in the present invention may include any insecticide of any nature, and the limitation is that the insecticide has a slow-acting effect and does not have a direct knock-down effect. In a particularly preferred embodiment of the present invention, the insecticide applied inside the bait and the channel is the same. Insecticides are preferred as an attractant (although this is not a necessary feature of the invention). Attractor means a substance that insects prefer to eat when they have alternative food sources. In other words, the insecticide itself is a kind of sale to the insects.
