The present disclosure generally relates to the field of pest elimination including all life stages of bed bugs. The present disclosure includes articles, systems, and methods of heat treatment to target and kill pests.

Heat system for killing pests

The present disclosure relates to compositions including a fatty acid soap/fatty acid mixture, and methods of use thereof. The compositions include a C5 to C12 fatty acid or mixtures thereof. The compositions show increased activity, e.g., insecticidal, soil removal, antimicrobial activity, at a controlled pH range of about 7.5 to about 9.0.

Mixed fatty acid soap/fatty acid based insecticidal, cleaning, and antimicrobial compositions

Mixed fatty acid soap/fatty acid insecticidal, cleaning, and antimicrobial compositions

The present invention relates to methods for reducing the population of (e.g., killing) arthropods employing compositions including medium chain peroxycarboxylic acid, and to the compositions. The methods include applying a medium chain peroxycarboxylic acid composition to an arthropod or a surface or area suspected of housing an arthropod.

Methods for reducing the population of arthropods with medium chain peroxycarboxylic acid compositions

A method of preparing a rapid acting bait composition which is water based and contains a water-sensitive insecticide as an active ingredient is described. The composition is easily applied into cracks and crevices and voids or other pest harborage areas to rapidly kill insect pests, particularly cockroaches. A kit is also described for preparation of the composition.

Process for using water-sensitive insecticides as an active ingredient in a water-based pest bait

An insect station for luring insects, baiting insects, trapping insects, monitoring insects or any combination of these functions includes a cover that can be moved to provide access to selected insect suppression devices, such as glueboards or baited pads. The insect station may have two changeable pad areas situated facing each other to provide a compact design. In addition, a base portion of the station may have a wall access opening to facilitate applying insecticide behind a wall. The insect station of the present invention may be used with any combination of attractant pads, bait, and glueboards, as well as many other insect suppression devices.

Insect suppression station

The present invention relates to apparatus for washing drains. The apparatus includes a support and a nozzle, which are adapted and configured to convey fluid to and to wash a drain. Typically, the apparatus includes a wand as the support and a ball or head as the nozzle. The apparatus can also include a fluid retainer, which can keep the dispensed fluid in and/or near the drain.

Drain washing apparatus

Disclosed is a substantially water-free insecticidal granular bait suitable for controlling crawling insects such as cockroaches and ants. The bait includes an insecticide, several feeding stimulants which are typically carbohydrates and proteins, and a lipid. These bait compositions are in granular form, which are useful for application in hard-to-reach areas and are particularly useful in wet conditions, as well as hot, dry areas.
