Insecticidal device that diffusely irradiates blue LD

Effective laser light delivery over a wide area

Overview

　Blue light irradiation has been shown to be effective in killing more than 10 species of pests. Previous studies have used light-emitting diodes, but large facilities have had problems with their light intensity.　
　Therefore, the inventors have developed a device that effectively emits blue laser light as a device that exerts insecticidal effects over a wide area.

(Usefulness)
・Safe compared to methods using ultraviolet light to kill insects.
・Suitably designed to kill multiple species and objects at different stages of development.
・At the same time as killing, growth can be promoted by shining a favorable light on plant growth.

Insecticidal and reproductive control effects

Product Application

・Pest control in a large facility e.g. field, factory, sewage treatment plant
