Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method and apparatus for controlling pests by trapping or killing them and is particularly concerned with the control of flying or crawling insects.
- the most common domestic insect pests are houseflies, mosquitoes and cockroaches.
- the common housefly, Musca comestica occurs throughout the world in domestic situations. Together with similar species, such as, the lesser housefly, blowflies and flesh flies, it contaminates food and spreads diseases, such as, typhoid and cholera, and also carries the eggs of parasitic worms.
- the housefly is also a problem on refuse tips and is becoming a progressively greater nuisance in agriculture, where it breeds in deep litter breeding units for poultry and other animals.
- the cockroach is ubiquitous in urban situations in the tropics and sub-tropics and is common in heated buildings in Europe and North America where food is prepared. Large cockroach populations are found in sewers and drains and many disease organisms have been isolated from them.
- the mosquito is both a severe nuisance pest and vastly important as a vector for blood-borne diseases, such as, malaria, yellow fever and dengue.
- Insecticide use inevitably encourages the evolution of resistance.
- In the United Kingdom as in many other countries prolonged attempts to control houseflies in animal rearing system have led to the increasing incidence of flies which are resistant to the major insecticides in common use.
- Control of insects in areas where food is prepared depends upon scrupulous hygienic procedures, periodic fumigation with insecticides and/or the use of traps .
- O94/00980 describes a method of controlling pests, such as insects, involving the use of electrostatically charged powders, in which the powders are used to adhere to the insect cuticle and also act as carriers for pesticides or other biologically active compounds.
- the electrostatically charged particles also adhere to the feet of the insects, blocking the mechanism by which they grip surfaces thereby making it possible to trap the insects as they slide down an inclined surface.
- the present invention provides a method of controlling pests, such as insects, by trapping and/or killing them wherein at least a part of a pest to be trapped or killed is exposed to a composition comprising particles containing or consisting of at least one magnetic material.
- the pests are exposed to particles which either contain or consist wholly of a magnetic material, such as a ferromagnetic oxide.
- Ferromagnetic oxides are often termed ferrites which is a generic term describing a class of magnetic oxide compounds that contain iron oxide as a primary component.
- the spinel ferrites have the general composition MFe 2 0 4 and are isostructural with the mineral spinel, MgAl 2 0 4 .
- M in the formula is generally Mg, Mn, Co, Ni , Zn or Cu, or mixtures thereof.
- a second group of ferrites is the hexagonal ferrites which are a group of ferromagnetic oxides in which the principal component is Fe s 0 3 in combination with a divalent metal oxide such as BaO, SrO or PbO and a divalent transition-metal oxide.
- a third group of ferrites is the garnets which have the general structure M 3 Fe 5 0 12 .
- the metal M may be, for example, Y, La, Ca, the rare earth metals or other large cations .
- Preferred materials for use in the present invention are strontium ferrite which is a hard magnetic material, optionally in admixture with a ferrosilicate or neodymium barium salts.
- Soft magnetic materials such as Fe, Fe 2 0 3 or ferrosilicates may also be used if they have been magnetised or become magnetised on admixture with hard magnetic materials.
- the particles which are used in the present invention preferably have an average particle size diameter in the range of from 2 to 100 micrometres, preferably 3 to 50 micrometres. Generally the particles are applied to a surface in an area in which pests are present .
- the composition which is used in the present invention may consist wholly of the magnetic particles.
- the composition may compromise a proportion of the magnetic material in admixture with one or more other components.
- the magnetic particles may be admixed with one or more filler materials such as talc, silicon dioxide, diatomaceous earth, ferrosilicates and the like.
- the magnetic particles may be admixed with particles which contain one or more pesticides or behaviour modifying chemicals or the magnetic particles may be coated with one or more pesticides or behaviour modifying chemicals.
- the magnetic particles will comprise at least 10% of the composition, preferably at least 50% by weight of the composition. Insects adhere to smooth or inclined surfaces using adhesive organs on their feet.
- the magnetic particles which are used in the method of the present invention may consist solely of the magnetic material.
- the particles may be composite particles which comprise a core of an inert substrate which is impregnated with and/or coated with the magnetic material.
- the inert substrate is a material which acts as a carrier for the magnetic material and which is chemically and biologically inert.
- suitably inert substrates for use in the present invention are silicon dioxide, magnesium silicate (talc) , diatomaceous earth, cellulose or natural or synthetic polymers such as chitin, chitosan or rubber, or aerogels .
- the inert substrate may additionally have a pesticide or a behaviour modifying chemical impregnated thereon or associated therewith, for example by adsorption thereon.
- the amount of pesticide or behaviour modifying chemical which is impregnated into or associated with the inert substrate will generally comprise at least 0.1% by weight of the inert substrate.
- the amount of the pesticide or behaviour modifying chemical will depend upon the intended release rate from the composition and the length of intended duration of release.
- the pesticide which may be incorporated into the composite particles or incorporated into the composition used in the invention may be specifically targeted to the control of particular pests. For example, an insecticide may be applied to sexually mature male insects so that it spreads amongst the rest of the population during mating, or by contact during swarming.
- insects are unlikely to spread to other species of insect when transmitted in this way.
- Each pesticide may be chosen to have a narrow spectrum of action. Entomopathogens are particularly well suited to this .
- a further embodiment is to use a behaviour modifying chemical, for example a specific attractant to attract insects to the particles.
- the attractant may be a sexual pheromone.
- a sexual attractant pheromone may be used to produce male confusion. This technique depends on the very high sensitivity of male insects to volatile sex attractants produced by females of the same species .
- the particles are picked up by the insect from the surface on which the particles are located.
- the particles are then transferred to the body parts of the insect by movement and during grooming.
- the particles remain in place and continue to release the pesticide or behaviour modifying chemical, such as a pheromone.
- the composite particles which may be used in the method of the present invention have a dual effect. Not only does the magnetic material impregnated into or coated onto the inert substrate have an effect on the orientation and stability of the insects, but the pesticide or behaviour modifying chemical will produce a second effect which is associated with the particular nature of the pesticide or behaviour modifying chemical incorporated into the composite particles.
- pesticide any substance which can be used in the control of agricultural, natural environmental and domestic pests, such as insects. Included within this term, therefore, are naturally occurring or synthetic chemical insecticides, fungicides, acaricides, insect growth regulators and chemosterilants; entomopathogens such as bacteria, viruses and fungi.
- behaviour modifying chemicals includes within its scope the pheromones, allomones, kairomones, parapheromones and food odours .
- the present invention furthermore includes within its scope a first pesticidal composition in particulate form which comprises composite particles each comprising a core of an inert substrate having a pesticide or behaviour modifying chemical impregnated thereon or associated therewith and the core being impregnated or coated with a ferromagnetic oxide.
- the composite particles are as described above in relation to the method of the invention.
- the present invention still further includes within its scope a second pesticidal composition in particulate form which comprises particles containing or consisting of a magnetic material in admixture with particles which contain or consist of one or more pesticides or behaviour modifying chemicals.
- an insect trap which comprises a housing, a zone of the housing or a zone within the housing comprising a magnetically polarized material and the said zone being coated with a composition comprising particles containing or consisting of a magnetic material of opposite polarity to that of the magnetically polarized material.
- the insect trap of the present invention has a zone of magnetically polarized material which may form a portion of one or more walls of the housing, or may be provided as a separate insert within the housing.
- the zone of the magnetically polarized material may be formed, for example from a plastic material which is impregnated with a ferromagnetic oxide which is magnetically polarized. Alternatively, the zone may itself be formed solely from the magnetically polarized material.
- the zone of the magnetically polarized material has an opposite polarity to the polarity of the magnetic material which is coated onto the said zone.
- the zone has a surface which is inclined to the horizontal and, as described above, this will assist in disrupting the orientation of the insects which walk or crawl over the zone.
- the insect trap may include a trapping zone into which the insects fall when they become established after contact with the particles containing or consisting of the magnetic material .
- the trapping zone may include a fluid, a powder, a desiccant, a chemical toxicant or an adhesively sticky or tacky surface, or any combination thereof, for retaining the insects therein.
- the immobilised and trapped insects may be left to die or they may be removed for destruction or study.
- the insect trap of the present invention may be provided with means to lure the insects into the housing.
- Insect lures are well known and may comprise, for example, a light source with some emission in the ultraviolet range, or a chemical stimulant such as a natural or synthetic pheromone attractant, or an odour normally associated with the insects' food or food plant.
- insect traps of the present invention can be produced cheaply and insect destabilization and knock down may be achieved without the use of electrical grids. Pollution problems arising from the use of toxic chemicals are eliminated or greatly reduced because any pesticide contained in the composite particles which may be used in the present invention are applied only in the area of the trap and not generally to the location of the pest.
- the trap may be recharged with additional magnetic powder when the original powder charge has been used up by insects contacting the powder.
- the present invention provides an efficient method of killing insects by ensuring that the pesticide reaches the insects more effectively and remains in place for longer periods, or alternatively provides a means by which the behaviour of the insects is disrupted, thereby disrupting the mating and reproductive cycles of the insects.
- FIG. 1A is a plan view of an insect trap in accordance with the present invention.
- Figure IB is a cross section along the line A-A of the trap of Figure 1A with a lid positioned thereover;
- Figure 1C is a cross section along the line B-B of the trap of Figure 1A with a lid positioned thereover .
- Figure 2 illustrates the percentage coverage of powder on the body parts of Blattella germanica over time as described in Example 2 herein below; and Figure 3 illustrates the loss of magnetic powder from the bodies of cockroaches over time.
- a cockroach trap is illustrated in Figures 1A, IB and lC.
- the trap comprises an elongate body 1 having a trapping area 2 formed in the centre thereof .
- the trapping area 2 is bounded on two sides thereof by two longitudinally extending walls 3 which are of a sufficient height to prevent the cockroaches from climbing over them.
- Ramped surfaces 4 extend downwardly from the tops of each of the walls.
- the top edges of the longitudinally extending walls 3 are provided with recesses 5 which are designed to support an elongate bridging plate 6.
- the bridging plate 6 is constructed from a plastic material containing a proportion of a ferromagnetic material to make it weakly magnetic. The top surface of bridging plate 6 is dusted with a ferromagnetic powder.
- the trap has a lid 7 which is held in place by magnetic studs (not shown) positioned at the ends of the ramped surfaces 4.
- An odorous attractant is placed in the trapping area 2.
- a cockroach attracted by the attractant walks up the ramped surface and then onto the bridging plate 6.
- the bridging plate has inwardly curved surfaces 8.
- the trapping area may be provided with a glue pad 9 to which the cockroach becomes adhered.
- the opening between the ramped surface 4 and the lid 7 is such that a cockroach can climb up the ramped surface, for example when the trap is placed adjacent a wall 10 .
- the trap When the trap is full of cockroaches, it may be closed by pushing the lid off the magnetic studs. The trap can then be emptied for reuse, or disposed of.
- the present invention will be further described with reference to the following Examples.
- a surface was coated with a composition comprising 10% by weight of strontium ferrite and 90% by weight of a ferrosilicate .
- the particles had an average particle diameter in the range of from 5 to 100 micrometres.
- Houseflies (Musca domestica) were allowed to walk over the surface of the powder for 3 to 5 minutes after which the powder coating was spread over most of their body parts by their own grooming activities. They continued grooming whilst trying to dislodge the particles and were unable to walk on a sloping plastic surface without slipping with every movement. This behaviour continued for 4 days until all of the flies were dead. A coating of the powder was clearly visible on their wings and bodies. A similar result was obtained using cockroaches (Blattella germanica) .
- Example 1 The procedure of Example 1 was repeated using strontium ferrite powder.
- the loss of powder with time is plotted in Figure 3. It can be seen that after an initial decline in the amount of powder remaining attached to the cockroach's bodies, a fairly steady state is reached after about 60 minutes with only a further slight tailing off with time.
