Abstract: An insect capture device is used to monitor, capture, and/or kill insects. The device has a raised portion to create a gap between a surface and the device to entice insects to pass under. At the raised portion, a glue board includes an adhesive facing the surface. As the insect passes under the raised portion, the insect can unknowingly become attached to the adhesive portion and stuck thereto. To aid in installing the glue board, one or more sections of the glue board can be free of adhesive to connect or fit to a part of the device to hold the glue board in place, while also allowing for easy removal to replace the glue board with a new one, free of captured insects.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for obtaining a product chemistry from a slid block of caustic material is provided. The product is housed within a capsule which is positioned inside a turbulent flow dispenser, which utilizes fluid to erode the block and produce a concentrated solution. The fluid characteristics can be adjusted in the field to achieve a predetermined concentrate level of the solution. The capsule provides a safe and convenient means for handling, storing and shipping the caustic block without exposing the operator or handler to the hazardous material. The capsule includes nested components which can be rotated between a closed or sealed position and an open use position.

Abstract: A solid product dispenser can be used to form a dilute liquid solution from a block of solid concentrate. In cases where only a small amount of liquid solution is needed, the solid product dispenser may dissolve the block of solid concentrate quickly and substantially uniformly to provide a solution of controlled concentration. This can be contrast with larger dispensing applications where a dispenser may dissolve a block of concentrate slowly at the start and more rapidly as the dispensing progresses, producing a solution with an average concentration higher than if only a small amount of solution were produced using the dispenser. In one example, the solid product dispenser includes a fluid distribution reservoir and a solid product reservoir positioned inside of the fluid distribution reservoir and over a platform on which the solid product sits. High pressure fluid flows between the two reservoirs, turbulently contacting the solid product.
Abstract translation: 可以使用固体产品分配器从固体浓缩物块形成稀液体溶液。 在需要少量液体溶液的情况下,固体产品分配器可以快速且基本上均匀地溶解固体浓缩块,以提供受控浓度的溶液。 这可以与更大的分配应用形成对比,其中分配器可以在开始时缓慢地溶解浓缩块,并且随着分配进行而更快地溶解,产生平均浓度高于仅使用分配器产生少量溶液的溶液 。 在一个示例中,固体产品分配器包括流体分配储存器和位于流体分配储存器内部以及固体产品所在的平台上的固体产品储存器。 高压流体在两个储存器之间流动,湍流地接触固体产物。

Abstract: A crawling insect pitfall trap configured be placed on a surface can include a plurality of connected walls and a fibrous layer. The plurality of connected walls can be configured to rest on the surface and can each be sloped to form a pitfall cavity and to form a top edge at an opening of the pitfall cavity. The plurality of connected walls can each include an outer surface that is smooth. The sloped and smooth surfaces can be configured to dissuade climbing by a crawling insect. The fibrous layer can be applied to at least a portion of an outer surface of at least one wall of the plurality of connected walls, and can extend from about where the at least one wall rests on the surface to the top edge of the at least one wall. The fibrous layer can promote climbing by the crawling insect.

Abstract: A system and method for processing and analyzing a photographic image of a board having a sticky surface of an insect traps allows for remote monitoring of deployed insect traps to maintain effectiveness of the insect traps while eliminating the need for frequent manual inspections. The processing and analyzing can include converting the photographic image to a grayscale image and determining a concentration of insects on the board and can be performed using edge computing.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for obtaining a product chemistry from a solid block is provided. The product is housed within a dispenser, which utilizes a liquid and a gas to erode the block and produce a concentrate solution. The liquid and gas characteristics can be adjusted in the field to achieve a predetermined concentrate level in the solution. The introduction of air into the dispenser saves water, while producing higher concentrate levels.
