A face masque that applies cooling therapy to facial features of a patient. The masque is formed of two nylon or plastic layers that define a closed interior space and filled with a cooling medium that includes water, glycerin and hydroxyethyl cellulose. The masque controls the rate of heat dissipation from a user based upon the heat capacity, mass, rheology and composition of the materials used. The masque is lighter than conventional water-filled ice packs. It remains unfrozen and malleable even when cooled to sub-zero temperatures at which water-filled packs would freeze solid. The masque readily conforms to facial features due to the materials used, thereby contributing to improved comfort on the part of a user. Further, the masque possesses improved cooling therapy because it remains cold for longer periods of time relative to water-filled ice packs. Optionally, the masque accommodates eye inserts placed between a main body of the masque and recesses of the patient's eyes. Also, the masque may be provided with a cloth sheath separating the nylon or plastic layers from the patient's face.

An apparatus for attracting and destroying insects includes a housing, a canister secured to the housing and containing carbon dioxide, and a discharge device for discharging the carbon dioxide from the canister and into the housing. The apparatus further includes a source of octenol provided in the housing, and a device for introducing and mixing the octenol with the carbon dioxide within the housing. The mixture of carbon dioxide and octenol is released from the housing for attracting insects. A heat source is also provided for further attracting insects, and an electric grid secured to and surrounding the housing destroys the insects upon their contacting the grid.
