Abstract: A bait station for attracting and killing insects with a nithiazine-type insecticide is constructed in a substantially flat configuration, with the insecticide formulated as a solid coating on the surface of a solid sheet of moisture-free nonabsorptive material, the station further containing one or more ampoules of an attractant composition. The coated sheet and ampoules are held in a housing, with the ampoules in a compressible portion of the housing permitting them to be manually broken to discharge their contents on command, the housing containing appropriately positioned openings to both expose the insecticide surface and to permit release of the attractant vapors.

Abstract: Plaster formulations of agricultural and pest control chemicals which form slow release briquets in situ.

Abstract: A point source insect control device which comprises a frangible container poorly permeable to gases and liquids containing a liquid insecticidal substance capable of translocation; a sheet of absorbent material at least one portion of which at least partially surrounds or is in close proximity with the container, and an enclosure for the container and absorbent sheet which bears multiple perforations or apertures sufficient to allow translocation of the insecticidal substances once the frangible container is ruptured.
