Abstract: A device for killing insects, such as bedbugs, with heat includes four side panels and two end panels. Each of the side panels is fixed to two adjacent side panels along complementary mitered edges provided with interlocking male protrusions and female indentations. The side panels are fixed to the end panels by portions of the side panels that mate with complementary channels provided by the end panels and locking mechanisms. The device further includes a mechanism located either inside or outside the device for providing heated air to the interior of the device and a mechanism for circulating the heated air inside the device for killing any insects that may be infesting items such as clothing and bedding placed inside the device. The interior of the device may be provided with mechanisms such as racks and hanger rods for supporting items placed inside the device. The interior of the device may be provided with mechanisms for directing the flow of hot air inside the device.

Abstract: A heating system for a device for killing insects includes an air heater and two fans that are combined in an air heater and circulation fan assembly. The air heater and circulation fan assembly is attachable to a top interior side of a sealed enclosure. The air heater and circulation fan assembly includes a housing that contains a motor that drives a single rotating shaft that turns the blades of a first fan for drawing air from an interior space of the sealed enclosure into the housing and a second fan for pushing air from the housing through or by an electrical device that generates heat to heat the air. The second fan moves the heated air through an air duct system having at least one air duct for moving the heated air to at least one opening in the air duct system located in the vicinity of a lowest part of the interior space of the sealed enclosure.
