    摘要: A dispenser unit (1) for dispensing biological material, e.g. larvae or insects etc. The dispenser unit has a rotary arrangement (2) with a drive shaft (3) and a plurality of protruding vanes (4) positioned inside a housing (10) for encasing the rotary arrangement to form chambers (5) for containing biological material between respective neighbouring vanes and an inner wall (11) of the housing. A track (6) on the housing serves to engage with each vane or movable element to control the volume of the chamber between an inlet opening (20) in a top part of the housing and an outlet opening (21) in a bottom part of the housing. This allows the biological material to be received in the chambers at the inlet opening (20) and dispensed from the chambers (5) at the outlet opening (21) during rotation of the rotary arrangement. The dispensing unit is designed to provide for an expanding chamber volume as the chambers are being rotated from the inlet opening to the outlet opening. The dispenser unit has proven to provide a low mortality e.g. for dispensing living larvae. It can be transported by a drone or the like to spread biological material over a large area.

    摘要: A tamper-proof bait station includes a container having a base and a lid that provides access to an interior that stores a poison bait that is consumed by pests. The base is securable to an external support member that supports the container above a ground surface. The support has an interior that is able to receive a weighted material to restrict movement of the container. A locking cap is provided that locks the lid to the base and is only removably upon applying axial or side pressure to the locking cap.

    摘要: Sound selectable game calls may include a call frame. The call frame may include side frame panels. At least one frame spacer may be disposed between the side frame panels. At least one of the side frame panels may engage the frame spacer or spacers. At least one panel tension adjustment mechanism may engage the side frame panel or panels. The panel tension adjustment mechanism may be configured to adjust engagement tension of the corresponding side frame panel against the frame spacer or spacers. A call paddle may be pivotally supported by the call frame. The call paddle may be configured for contact with and scraping movement across the side frame panel or panels for production of the game call sounds.
