Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method for controlling an insect pest with vibrations, including a step of determining a frequency range and an amplitude range of vibrations in a habitat medium of an insect pest that induce or suppress a specific behavior of the insect pest, and a step of controlling the insect pest behavior by applying vibrations in the frequency range and amplitude range once or two or more times in the insect pest habitat medium.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for controlling an insect pest with vibrations, comprising: a step of determining a frequency range and an amplitude range of vibrations in a habitat medium of a pest that induce or suppress a specific behavior of the pest; and a step of controlling the pest behavior by applying vibrations in the frequency range and amplitude range once or two or more times in the insect pest habitat medium, wherein the amplitude range is 0.001 m/s 2 or mor…
