Definitions

  • the present invention relates in general to the field of chemical agent delivery devices, and, in particular, provides a device which can deliver pesticides to a target from a safe distance by firing encapsulated pesticide at a target.
  • the Ceratitis Capatata commonly known as the Mediterranean Fruit Fly (Medfly)
  • Medfly Mediterranean Fruit Fly
  • the Medfly can currently be found in Guatemala and the Mexican states bordering Guatemala. If the Medfly reaches Oaxaca and/or Veracruz, it will have a corridor to the United States. Countermeasures, particularly effective means of pest control, are needed to prevent the spread of the Medfly to the- United States.
  • Liquid or powder chemical agents can also be sprayed from a helicopter or airplane. While such aerial chemical agent delivery means can cover large areas and treat widespread infestations, they have several disadvantages, including being subject to environmental effects and introducing chemical agents into areas which such chemical agents are not intended to reach. These disadvantages, in turn, can result in high chemical agent concentrations seeping into the soil or groundwater and causing long-term, wide-spread ecological damage or damage to animal or human populations.
  • Bait stations can take several forms, but they generally function using the same basic principles. Bait stations are formed when a solid or viscous semi-liquid compound containing both an attractant and a chemical agent is placed in a location which is readily accessible to a pest, such as the Medfly. A pest is attracted to the bait station by the attractant, and subsequently consumes or comes in contact with the chemical agent. Such chemical agent contact typically kills, neuters, or otherwise harms the pest, although bait stations are sometimes coated with animal or insect repellants.
  • fruit farmers will typically build bait stations by wrapping burlap or another fibrous material around the trunk of one or more trees in an orchard, and applying an artractant/pesticide compound to the fibrous material.
  • the attractant attracts fruit flies, gypsy moth caterpillars, thrips, drywood termites, beetles, or other pests, and the pesticide typically kills the pest shortly after contact or ingestion.
  • bait stations While bait stations have some advantages over simple sprays or powders, they still present several disadvantages. For example, the attractant and chemical compound needs to be periodically replenished, which means that conventional bait stations must be located in a place which is accessible to the farmer or other pest control expert. This typically means that the bait stations are also accessible to other humans, as well as desirable or beneficial animals, plants, or insects. This can lead to contact or tampering with the bait stations, which can result in unintentional exposure to the chemical agents of the bait station.
  • chemical agents used in bait stations may only be lethal to a specific animal, plant, or insect, the chemical agents can still cause significant health problems in a beneficial or desirable animal, plant, or insect when they come into contact with or accidentally ingest the chemical agent.
  • the lethality of some chemical agents is dependent on an anticipated exposure time, and repeated or extended exposure to some chemical agents, as may be experienced by a farmer, rancher, veterinarian, groundskeeper, or other pest control expert, can result in such chemical agents becoming lethal.
  • the present invention in its preferred embodiment provides a pesticide delivery apparatus and system, and methods of using such an apparatus.

  • a flexible vessel, or capsule Such a capsule will preferably be spherical in shape, and will be made from a biodegradable material, such as gelatin.
  • Capsules can be fired from a pneumatic gun, similar to a conventional paintball gun.
  • the capsule is fill with a gelatinous substance including both an attractant and a pesticide, and is fired directly to a location such as a tree or a canyon wall, thereby creating a bait station.
  • the capsule can be delivered in the proximity or anticipated path of the pest.
  • capsules used in the present invention will have a caliber size, or diameter, of greater than 0.68 inches, preferably 0.73 inches. This size is preferred as it creates capsules which are too large to be fired by conventional paintball guns, thereby reducing the likelihood that a pesticide, insect repellant, or other chemical agent might be unintentionally fired at an opponent during a friendly paintball game.
  • a modified pneumatic encapsulated chemical agent delivery device comprising several components, including a reservoir capable of holding at least one encapsulated chemical agent.
  • a first cylindrical chamber with a diameter greater than 0.68 inches, is operably connected to the reservoir, and at least one capsule can be conveyed from the reservoir into the first cylindrical chamber in preparation for firing the capsule.
  • a compressed gas source is operably coupled to one end of the first cylindrical chamber and, when a trigger or other compressed gas release mechanism is pressed, compressed gas is released from the compressed gas source which causes capsule acceleration.
  • the capsule speeds down a second cylindrical chamber, or barrel, which also has a diameter greater than 0.68 inches, and which is operably coupled to the first cylindrical chamber.
  • the barrel and first chamber may, alternatively, be portions of the same cylindrical chamber. After leaving the barrel, the capsule travels through the air or water and explodes on impact with a target.

  • Traditional paintball capsules are round, with a diameter of approximately .68 inches, and are made of soft gelatin. While gelatin is presently preferred, other capsule materials may be used, including, but not limited to, biodegradable materials, such as those made from plant fibers, and non-biodegradable capsule materials, such as thin plastics.
  • preferred delivery devices should be capable of accelerating a capsule to a velocity in excess of 300 fps when the capsule exits the gun.
  • the 300 fps speed is presently preferred because traditional gelatin paintball capsules typically cannot withstand accelerations necessary to increase capsule exit velocity.

  • a pest control expert can deliver a chemical agent to a target without needing to physically contact the target, and from a greater distance than is possible with a spray.
  • the chemical agent is encapsulated, the effects of environmental conditions on chemical agent delivery can be mitigated, and chemical agents can be more accurately delivered than with conventional aerial distribution techniques. This also results in less chemical agent being introduced into the ecosystem, and can reduce the overall impact on the soil and groundwater.

As should be apparent to one skilled in the art, the components used in the capsule, their percentage or concentration, and their chemical/physical state will determine the effectiveness of the chemical agent. In addition, factors such as chemical agent delivery location; pest population density; and host type, density, and condition, can also impact the effectiveness of the chemical agent. Thus, to achieve maximal results, regular chemical agent delivery may be advantageous.
  • Chemical agent delivery frequency may be determined based upon a variety of factors, including the longevity of the chemical agent formulation, exposure to the elements, pest intensity, pest life cycle, and the like.
