Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080204252High reliability pest detection - A pest detection device includes a housing with a sensor and one or more bait members. The sensor includes one or more of a chisel-shaped electrically conductive trace carried on a substrate, a low resistance electrically conductive ink defining an electrical pathway on a substrate with a pointed profile, and/or a substrate including a directional grain structure oriented in a predefined manner relative to an electrically conductive pathway.08-28-2008
20090188155Techniques for maintaining palatability of a bait material in a pest control device - A termite control bait container includes an upper end portion opposite a lower end portion. The bait container includes a chamber containing a termite bait. The lower end portion includes an air-trapping pocket below at least a portion of the bait to reduce intrusion of water through the lower end portion when installed in a selected orientation at least partially below ground.07-30-2009
20100123554High realibility pest detection - A pest detection device includes a housing with a sensor and one or more bait members. The sensor includes one or more of a chisel-shaped electrically conductive trace carried on a substrate, a low resistance electrically conductive ink defining an electrical pathway on a substrate with a pointed profile, and/or a substrate including a directional grain structure oriented in a predefined manner relative to an electrically conductive pathway.05-20-2010
20100223837Bedbug detection, monitoring and control techniques - One nonlimiting variation of a detection arrangement includes one or more sensors each structured to detect at least one biochemical substance indicative of biochemistry of one or more target insect species and provide a corresponding sensor signal, a controller responsive to the sensor signal of each of the one or more sensors to determine if the one or more insect species are present and generate a corresponding output signal, and an indicator responsive to the output signal to indicate the presence of the one or more insect species.09-09-2010
20110080255BEDBUG DETECTION, MONITORING AND CONTROL TECHNIQUES - One nonlimiting variation of a detection arrangement includes one or more sensors each structured to detect at least one biochemical substance indicative of biochemistry of one or more target insect species and provide a corresponding sensor signal, a controller responsive to the sensor signal of each of the one or more sensors to determine if the one or more insect species are present and generate a corresponding output signal, and an indicator responsive to the output signal to indicate the presence of the one or more insect species.04-07-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100043276Bait materials, pest monitoring devices and other pest control devices that include polyurethane foam - In one aspect of the application, a termite bait, monitoring device or other termite control device includes a plurality of cellulosic food material pieces palatable to termites embedded within a water resistant polyurethane foam matrix. In another aspect, a termite bait, monitoring device or other termite control device includes a plurality of cellulosic food material pieces palatable to termites embedded within a water-absorbent polyurethane foam matrix. In another aspect a termite bait, monitoring device or other termite control device includes at least one cellulosic food material piece encapsulated within a water resistant polyurethane foam coating. In another aspect of the application, a termite control device includes a container, a cellulosic food material within the container and a water resistant polyurethane foam positioned to separate the food material from its environment. In another aspect of the application, a termite bait container includes a chamber containing a cellulosic food material and at least one pocket containing a polyurethane foam barrier to reduce intrusion of water through the pocket to the food material. In still another aspect of the application, a termite control device includes a container, a cellulosic food material within the container and a water-absorbent polyurethane foam scaffold that operates to hold moisture in contact with food material.02-25-2010
