    摘要: A live animal trap comprises a cage assembly defining an interior space accessible via at least one entrance, a door assembly and a trigger assembly. The cage assembly includes a floor, a pair of opposed side walls, a rear wall and a top wall removably connected to the pair of side walls and the rear wall. The door assembly includes a door pivotally mounted to the cage assembly and movable between a closed position and an open position for selectively opening and closing the at least one entrance. The trigger assembly includes a trigger arranged within the interior space of the cage assembly. A first linkage of the trap is removably attached to the door assembly in an operating position. The first linkage is adapted to engage with the trigger assembly to hold the door in the open position.

    摘要: A mono-dose container comprises a housing defining an internal cavity. The housing includes a first sidewall defining a first interior surface of the internal cavity, and a second sidewall defining a second interior surface of the internal cavity at least partially opposing the first interior surface. A first protrusion extends from the first sidewall into the internal cavity. A second protrusion extends from the second sidewall into the internal cavity and in a direction of the first protrusion. The first and second protrusions define complementary surfaces sized to engage one another and limit relative movement between the first and second protrusions in at least two directions.

    摘要: An insect control device is provided for controlling insects in a household garbage receptacle used in an outdoor or semi-outdoor environment. The insect control device includes an outer housing with gas-flow apertures therein, a quantity of a gas-releasing insect poison contained within the housing, and an adhesive attaching element for securing the housing to an inner surface of a closed or lidded household garbage receptacle. Gas released by the insect poison flows out of the housing through the gas-flow apertures to permeate the air inside the enclosed garbage containment area and kill insects therein while the adhesive element keeps the device securely in place within the garbage receptacle and out of the reach of children and pets during both use and emptying of the receptacle.

    摘要: A rodent trap having a remote arming capability and a method of deploying a rodent trap in an unarmed state and then arming the trap after a wait period without the user having to again physically access the trap. The trap, preferably embodied as an electronic rodent trap, may be configured with wireless remote arming capability, timed arming functionality, activity based arming and the like. When in the unarmed state, the trap operates in a monitoring mode in which the trap can monitor and evaluate activity and/or interactions with the trap and can send and receive wireless communication signals.

    摘要: A liquid ant bait pack having a primary bait well and a plurality of feeding reservoirs for holding liquid bait is provided in which the walls of the feeding reservoirs as well as the primary bait well are sloped to facilitate ant access to the liquid bait held therein while reducing the risk of the ants falling into the bait and drowning. Ant access is further facilitated by dry platform areas positioned between the reservoirs. The inclusion of multiple feeding reservoirs, the bait well and the dry platform areas provides an increased area over which ants can simultaneously access the bait. The entrance to the bait pack is sealed during manufacture and then readily opened by the consumer using a tear-off tab that can removed without the need for any tools.

    摘要: A bird feeder comprises an inner housing including a seed reservoir having at least one feed port defined therethrough, and an inner base supporting the seed reservoir. An outer housing of the feeder is moveably mounted to the inner housing, and includes a reservoir cover arranged over the seed reservoir and defining at least one feed opening. A top cover of the outer housing receives a portion of the inner housing, and an outer base of the outer housing supports the reservoir cover. The outer housing is moveable relative to the inner housing between a first position and a second position. A compression spring is operatively connected between the inner base and the outer base for biasing the outer housing into the first position relative to the inner housing.

    摘要: An elastomeric feed port and a bird feeder having a seed reservoir with a seed opening fitted with such an elastomeric feed port is provided. The feed port has an elastomeric seed control membrane with a cutout that forms at least one aperture through which birds can access seed in the reservoir. The cutout is shaped to create flexible flaps or fingers adjacent the aperture in the membrane that partially cover the seed opening to reduce seed spillage but that can be pushed aside or temporarily deformed by a bird when the bird inserts its beak into the cutout aperture to access seed therethrough.

    摘要: An electronic rodent trap includes an outer housing forms a trap body having two entrances defined on opposite sides thereof and creates a tunnel therebetween extending longitudinally between the entrances. A high voltage killing circuit is arranged within the trap body, and includes a plurality of killing plates and a triggering element separate from the plurality of killing plates and spaced inwardly from the entrance. A removable tunnel module is received within the outer housing and includes opposed entrances in alignment with the two entrances of the trap body. A removable electronics module is received within the outer housing, the electronics module contains the voltage circuit operatively connected to the plurality of killing plates.

    摘要: A live catch trap having a light-based sensor mounted therein and remote communication capability. The light-based sensor may be a visual image device such as a CMOS or CCD camera that evaluates the status of the trap interior for the presence of insects and/or rodents. The camera may be activated to check the trap interior either periodically or in response to an event as detected by one or more sensors such as a motion detector, accelerometer, pressure sensor and/or temperature sensor. Alternatively, the trap may include a reflectivity sensor or a photo sensor including arrays of LEDs and photodiodes. The trap includes a microprocessor that evaluates the data collected by the light-based sensor to determine what type of activity has been sensed and then reports this information wirelessly to a remote user.
