Pesticide Strips For Control Of Mites In Honeybees

View page
US Patent:
8124116, Feb 28, 2012
Filed:
Nov 17, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/947906
Inventors:
Stuart Volby - Hackensack MN, US
Assignee:
Mann Lake, Ltd - Hackensack MN
International Classification:
A01N 25/00
A61K 47/32
US Classification:
424405, 5147724
Abstract:
Pesticide strips used to control parasitic mites in honeybees. The pesticide strips are designed to have a lifetime or period of existence, after which the strip no longer exists in its original form. The strip breaks down, such as by disintegration, dissolving, decomposition, being eaten or carrier away, or otherwise degrading over time, so that at the end of the recommended lifetime, the strip is no longer in its original form. In most embodiments, at least 50% of the strip is no longer present, and in other embodiments at least 75% of the strip is no longer present. Preferably, at the end of the recommended lifetime, the strip no longer exists, at least the body of the strip that included the active ingredient. With this design, the strip does not provide extended low-dose pesticide that can be detrimental in treating the mites.

Stuart Allen Volby - Hackensack MN, US
Assignee:
BAYER HEALTHCARE LLC - TARRYTOWN NY
International Classification:

A device for controlling insects, especially flying insects. The device has two screens joined by a series of seams to form pockets.
