Disclosed herein are mats for dispensing volatile vapors such as insecticides. The mats are multi-layered. One layer is a carrier layer impregnated with the volatile. It is secured to at least one metal layer. The metal layer spreads the heat from a heater, thereby minimizing hot spots. In other embodiments additional layers are provided to provide a further heat distribution or temperature step down. An air gap can be provided between two of the layers.

Mat for dispensing volatile materials

Disclosed herein are devices for dispensing volatile vapors such as insecticides. Table-like carrier members provide a compartment for the volatile material. One or more table leg structures extend down from a table top to support a cavity in the table top a distance above a burner element. This results in more moderate and uniform heating, thereby permitting efficient release of the volatile material over a longer period of time. In some versions the table leg structures and table top are formed as separate pieces and designed to permit side-to-side ventilation under the volatile.
