Abstract: There is proposed an apparatus for introducing a chemical into a plant tissue of a target plant, including a body being graspable by a user, and an applicator portion attachable to or forming a part of the body, the applicator portion including a reservoir chamber for holding the chemical, and one or more elongate porous piercing elements, in fluid communication with the reservoir chamber, being configured to pierce the plant tissue, wherein the chemical within the reservoir chamber is drawn or moves into the one or more elongate porous piercing elements, such that as the one or more elongate porous piercing elements penetrate into or through the plant tissue the chemical is applied to an edge of a resultant incision therein.

Abstract: A device and method for applying chemicals to internal tissue of living organisms, including the internal tissue of plants and animals, which organisms reside in mediums such as land, air or water. Piercing elements are engageable with a chemical reservoir in order to coat of the piercing elements with a chemical. Once coated, the piercing elements are used to pierce a living organism's tissue, such as plant tissue, to deliver the chemical.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device and method for a chemical applicator used applying chemicals to Irving organism's internal tissue, including the internal tissue of plants and animals, for organisms which reside in mediums such as land, air or water. The device of the present invention is predicated, in part, on the piercing elements being engageable with the chemical reservoir in order to effect the coating of the piercing elements with the chemical. Once coated, these piercing elements are then used to pierce the living organism's tissue such as plant tissue to deliver the chemical.
