Abstract

A pest control device and a method of deploying the device. The device comprises a housing provided with at least one opening which is closed or sealed by a material arranged to degrade in an environment in which the device is located, thereby allowing eventual access to the interior of the device. The method comprises providing the device with the temporarily sealed or closed opening(s), a pest behavior-modifying agent located in the interior of the device housing, and a feature for causing oscillatory motion of the housing while in free-fall motion. The device is then caused to fall from a height into or on to an area in which pest control is desired.
