Abstract:
A bee vectoring apparatus includes a tray for positioning in the exit path of a beehive. The tray includes a bottom, a bee entrance end, and a bee exit end. The apparatus includes a tray lid positioned above the bottom, with first and second barrier walls extruding downwardly from the lid. A ceiling extends between bottom ends of the first and second barrier walls.
Abstract:
A tray for positioning in an exit path of a beehive comprises a base, a bee entrance end, and a bee exit end. Spaced apart side walls extend upwardly from the base. The sidewalls extend generally lengthwise between the bee entrance end and bee exit end. A plurality of posts extend upwardly from the base and are positioned between the bee entrance end and the bee exit end. The posts are generally circular in cross-section. The posts act as obstacles around which the bess must walk to reach the bee exit end from the bee entrance end.
Abstract:
A powder plant treatment formulation for application to plants by insect vectoring includes: a plant treatment agent; a stabilizing agent bonded to the plant treatment agent for stabilizing the plant treatment agent; a moisture absorption agent for absorbing moisture from the formulation; an attracting agent for attracting the formulation to plants; and a diluent.

Abstract:
A replaceable tray for inserting into an exit path of a bee hive includes: (a) a tray body having a base and at least one side wall extending upwardly from the base and surrounding a periphery of the base, the base and the at least one side wall defining an interior of the tray body, and the at least one side wall having an upper end defining an upper rim of the tray body; (b) a removable top bonded to the upper rim for sealing the interior of the tray body; and (c) a powdered plant treatment agent in the interior of the tray body and supported on the base when the tray body is upright.
