Patent number: 11864546Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for using insect traps with combinations of dual multi-colored lights combining blue/green LED (light emitting diodes) with UV (ultraviolet) LEDs (light emitting diodes) for attracting insects to the lights and capturing the insects. The blue/green LED can emit at a wavelength of approximately 450 nm to approximately 550 nm in an approximately 180 degrees spread therefrom, and each side UV LED can emit at a wavelength of approximately 365 nm in an approximately 180 degrees spread therefrom. The combinations of multi-color lights can be mounted on one side of a module/fixture, and/or be mounted on opposite side faces of a module fixture. The combinations can use one centrally located blue/green LED with at least one right UV LED to a right side of the centrally located blue/green LED, and at least one left UV LED to a left side of the centrally located blue/green LED.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2023Date of Patent: January 9, 2024Assignee: Florida Insect Control Group LLCInventors: Philip G. Koehler, Enrico Paolo Levi

Patent number: 11653641Abstract: Pitfall traps, coasters, devices, apparatus, systems and methods for capturing crawling insects, such as bed bugs, and/or for preventing the insects from climbing up furniture legs to furniture such as beds, cots, chairs and any type of furniture where a person would rest or sleep. Smooth slick surfaces and/or pesticide treated surfaces can be located on underside facing horizontal or angled surfaces used with or without sticky surfaces which all can be used to prevent insect and bed bug travel and assist in helping trap the insects and bed bugs.Type: GrantFiled: September 17, 2020Date of Patent: May 23, 2023Assignee: University of Florida Research Foundation, Inc.Inventors: Philip G.

Publication number: 20200077635Abstract: Water-holding vessels and containers, such as flower pots, water holding dishes used under plant pots, vases, bird baths, and fountains and storm water inlets, can be coated with novel larvicide and/or adulticide coatings. Small objects can be coated with imbedded larvicide or larvicide and adulticide combination, which can be dropped in water-holding containers which can leach out pesticide over time which prevents mosquitoes from breeding in the water-holding containers. The small objects can be on the adhesive side of peel and stick type tape to form a peel and stick mosquitocidal chip (PSMC), which can be applied to the inner sides and/or bottoms of vessels/containers that can be exposed to water. A tape type roll can include an upper protective layer that protects a coating on a strip, the coating being a polymer coating having imbedded pesticide with or without silica. Under the strip can be an adhesive surface that is protected by a removable lower protective layer.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 1, 2017Publication date: March 12, 2020Inventors: Philip G.

Patent number: 9572338Abstract: Dual action lethal containers, systems and methods and novel compositions and formulas which are used to kill mosquitoes and their larvae. Generally pyramid shaped containers can have combined interior larvacidal and adultacidal coatings above and below a side opening in the container. A removable inclined grate cap can also allow for mosquitoes to enter into the container. Inclined stacked walls inside the container form attractive surfaces for mosquitoes to breed. Water-holding containers, such as flower pots, water holding dishes used under plant pots, vases, bird baths, and fountains and storm water inlets, can be coated with novel larvicide and/or adulticide coatings. Small objects can be coated with larvicide or larvicide and adulticide combination, which can be dropped in water-holding containers which can leach out pesticide over time which prevents mosquitoes from breeding in the water-holding containers.Type: GrantFiled: February 19, 2016Date of Patent: February 21, 2017Assignee: University of Florida Research Foundation, Inc.Inventors: Philip G.
