SEGMENTED INSECT CONTROL MAT

摘要

An insect control mat (10). The insect control mat has a mat body (12) with indentations that define break lines (16) such that a user of the mat body can readily separate the mat body (12) along the break lines (16) into subsections. Preferably, the subsections are substantially similar to each other, with the mat body being rectangular and the subsections also being rectangular with a width less than the width of the mat body. Each subsection is treated with one or more insect control ingredients in an amount sufficient to acheive the desired level of insect control when the subsection is used by itself in a conventional mat heater. Methods of controlling insects are also disclosed wherein the mat body is separed into subsections that then are used individually, either one at a time over succeeding use periods or simultaneously in multiple conventional mat heaters.
