Abstract: A release device for a vaporizable and/or sublimateable pesticide is provided. The release device is suitable for use against subterranean pests (e.g. fire ants). The release device may be driven into and/or placed in a cavity within the soil or other substrate where the pests reside. The release device comprises a vapor injector which releases the pesticidal composition through apertures into the pest habitat, where it is distributed in vapor form.

Abstract: A cleaning apparatus engageable with a vacuum source is provided. The vacuum source can be used to draw fluid through an interior space of a housing of the cleaning apparatus through an inlet tube so that debris entrained in the fluid collects in a debris collection zone upstream of a downstream opening in the inlet tube. Methods of using the cleaning apparatus are provided.

Abstract: Devices and methods for the control of pests, including plant pests, using the vapors of a plant health, pesticidal and/or pest control composition are disclosed. Compositions, devices and methods for the selective control of plant or other pests while not harming one or more beneficial insects are also disclosed. In some embodiments, the pests are include bugs, fleas, lice, ticks, plant pathogenic insects, acari, or the like. In some embodiments, the pests are varroa mites and the beneficial insects are honey bees.
