The invention provides an apparatus and a method for controlling pests which, ac cording to one aspect of the invention, uses a laser beam (14) which is scanned over a defined area and incapacitates se nsory organs of various pests when they enter the defined area. Such a pest control system uses a laser source (12) in cooperation with a scanner (16) which then repetitively scans the laser beam (14) throughout the defined area. Any pest which wanders into thi s area, or is attracted into this area, is likely to sense the laser beam, typically through its eyes or light spot. The laser beam i s of sufficient energy to destroy the sensory organ and incapacitate the pest.
