Abstract: The present invention comprises an improved animal dust bag for holding and dispensing powdered insecticide. The bag arrangement permits the bag to be hung from two spaced apart points when it is desired to avoid turning of the bag, or from a single overhead point when turning of the bag is of no concern. A flap extends upwardly from the top of the bag and presents an eyelet for receiving the two tie strings. When the two tie strings are threaded through the eyelet there is virtually no possibility of an animal sticking its head or a horn between the tie strings and pulling down the bag or damaging it. The eyelet also assures that the bag will be held relatively even, thus avoiding compaction of the powdered insecticide in one corner. A horizontal hanger bar extends across the top of the bag and presents two eyelets on either side so that when attachment at two spaced apart points is desired, the two eyelets of the hanger bar will avoid strain being placed on the bag material itself.

Abstract: A dust bag for applying powder insecticide to animals includes an outer mesh bag, an inner mesh bag, a waterproof lining between the two bags, and a double bag cartridge for containing the insecticide. The inner bag is placed inside of the outer bag with a dust chamber presented between the bottom ends of the bags to receive powder passing through the inner bag. The inner bag is characterized by a closer mesh weave than the outer bag, and the two woven bags cooperate with the waterproof lining to prevent rainwater from contaminating the powder while metering the flow of the insecticide to the animals. The cartridge is supported on the bottom of the inner bag and comprises a double bag arrangement with offset holes in the two bags for preventing water entry. The invention also contemplates a novel closure structure for a bag wherein a U-shaped hanger is coupled with a flap which closes an opening in the bag.
