【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は不快害虫駆除装置及び不快害虫駆除方法に関し、更に詳しくは、従来よりも効率的且つより確実にゴキブリ等のように不快害虫を駆除することができる不快害虫駆除装置及び不快害虫駆除方法に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来より、スーパーの食品売り場や学校、会社等の給食設備、あるいは食堂の厨房設備等においては、ゴキブリ等のような不快害虫を駆除することが、食品及び炊事器具の衛生上の問題のみならず、食中毒の発生、食品への混入等の観点からも重要視されている。特に近年は、HACCP(ハザード・アナリシス〔危害分析〕、クリティカル・コントロール・ポイント〔重要管理点〕)の導入及びPL法の施行に伴い、食品を扱う部署において、従来以上に厳しい衛生管理が要求されているため、ゴキブリ等のような不快害虫を駆除することは非常に重要な問題となっている。かかる不快害虫を駆除する方法として一般的に行われている方法としては、発見次第人の手で駆除すると共に、頻繁に床面の清掃を行うことにより、清潔な環境を維持することが挙げられる。
【0003】
しかし、室内、特に厨房には様々な器具・設備が備えられており、しかも、ゴキブリは僅かな隙間でも入り込むことができる上、夜間に主に活動することから、人の手により発見して駆除するのは必ずしも容易ではない。また、清掃する場合、これらの器具・設備により隠れる部分については清掃が困難であるという問題がある。更に、レストランの厨房のような汚れやすく、広い床面の洗浄には多くの労力が必要であり、短時間にムラなく効率的な洗浄を行うことは困難であるという問題がある。特に、最近はライフスタイルの変化に伴う客先の要望に応えるべく、スーパーや食堂の営業時間が従来よりも延長され、休日も減少していること等により、床面、特にゴキブリのような不快害虫の駆除が強く求められる厨房内の清掃の作業時間割振が困難となり、清掃時間の確保が困難となりつつある。そして、かかる問題を終業後の清掃等により図る場合は、必然的に清掃人員を増やさなければならず、その結果、高人件費となるという問題がある。そこで従来より、効率的且つより確実にゴキブリ等のような不快害虫を駆除することができる不快害虫駆除装置及び不快害虫駆除方法が求められている。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明は上記実情に鑑みてなされたものであり、従来よりも効率的且つより確実にゴキブリ等のように不快害虫を駆除することができる不快害虫駆除装置及び不快害虫駆除方法を提供することを目的とする。
【0005】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明者らは、ゴキブリ等の不快害虫の生態と駆除の方法、不快害虫駆除物質の作用・効果等について鋭意検討した結果、ピレスロイド系薬剤やオゾン等の不快害虫駆除物質を室内に噴霧散布すると、人の手が届きにくい隙間や器具・設備により隠れる部分にも行き渡り、その結果、不快害虫駆除物質を浴びたゴキブリ等の不快害虫はフラッシュアウト(仮死状態となったり、暴れまわったりして床面に落ちること)を引き起こし、これにより床面に誘導することができ、更に、床面に界面活性剤により起泡された泡を散布しておくことにより、フラッシュアウトを引き起こして床面に誘導された不快害虫を更に効率的且つ確実に駆除できることを見出して、本発明を完成するに至った。
【0006】
請求項1記載の発明の不快害虫駆除装置は、不快害虫駆除物質を噴霧状態で散布することができる不快害虫駆除物質噴霧装置と、界面活性剤水溶液を発泡させる発泡器及び該発泡器に接続され、発泡させた上記界面活性剤水溶液を被駆除室内の床及び腰壁の少なくとも1つの表面に供給するための吐出口を有する分配管を備える床面発泡被覆装置と、により構成され、該床面発泡被覆装置と上記不快害虫駆除物質噴霧装置は一体型又は分離していることを特徴とする。尚、本明細書中の「不快害虫」とは、床を這う害虫の意味に用いられ、例えば、ゴキブリ、クモ、ムカデ、ゲジ等が挙げられる。この中で、請求項1記載の発明の不快害虫駆除装置は、特にゴキブリの駆除に好適に用いることができる。
【0007】
請求項1記載の不快害虫駆除装置における上記「不快害虫駆除物質噴霧装置」は、不快害虫駆除物質を被駆除室内に噴霧することができる限り、その構成については限定はない。例えば、噴霧する上記不快害虫駆除物質が気体の場合、該不快害虫駆除物質を充填したボンベや該不快害虫駆除物質の発生装置と散布口を有し、被駆除室の天井や壁面、床面等に敷設され、必要に応じて不快害虫駆除物質の散布量を調節する調節バルブを備える散布管を有する構成や、被駆除室の天井や壁面、床面等に敷設せずに持ち運び可能な本体内部に、該不快害虫駆除物質を充填したボンベや該不快害虫駆除物質の発生装置を設け、本体に散布口を設けた構成とすることもできる。また、上記不快害虫駆除物質が液体の場合は、該不快害虫駆除物質を充填した容器と、上記不快害虫駆除物質を気化するための加熱機能等を有する気化装置を有する構成としたり、あるいは、圧縮気体を導入することによって、不快害虫駆除物質を超微粒子として外部に噴霧するため、不快害虫駆除物質を充填した容器や散布管と接続している圧縮気体を充填した容器を備える構成とすることができる。
【0008】
上記「不快害虫駆除物質」としては、上記不快害虫を駆除あるいはフラッシュアウトを引き起こすことができ、かかる目的を達成するために一般に用いられているものであれば特に限定はないが、特にピレスピロイド系薬剤やオゾンは、人体に対する影響が低いことから、厨房や食堂等のように食品を扱う部署における不快害虫の駆除に好適に用いることができるので好ましい。
【0009】
上記「床面発泡被覆装置」は、界面活性剤水溶液を発泡させ、被駆除室内の床及び腰壁の少なくとも1つの表面に発泡させた界面活性剤水溶液を供給して床面の全面又は一部を被覆するための装置であり、界面活性剤水溶液を発泡させて床面の全面又は一部を被覆することができる限り、その構造については特に限定はない。このような上記「床面発泡被覆装置」として、例えば、請求項2に示すように、界面活性剤水溶液を収容する貯留槽1と、該界面活性剤水溶液を送出する第1送出管11及び送出手段と、該第1送出管11に接続される第1気体供給管12と、該第1気体供給管12を介して該第1送出管11内の界面活性剤水溶液に気体を供給する第1気体供給手段13と、該第1送出管11に接続される発泡器3と、該発泡器3に接続される第2気体供給管14と、該第2気体供給管14を介して該発泡器3に気体を供給する第2気体供給手段15と、該発泡器3に接続され再度発泡された界面活性剤水溶液を該発泡器3から送出する第2送出管16と、を備えている床面発泡被覆装置B1を用いることができる(図2参照)。かかる構成を有する床面発泡被覆装置を用いれば、上記貯留槽から送出された界面活性剤水溶液は、上記第1送出管内を通って、上記発泡器に送られるが、その前に上記第1気体供給手段により上記第1気体供給管から供給される気体によって上記第1送出管内で発泡又は含泡状態とすることができる。この発泡又は含泡状態の界面活性剤水溶液が上記発泡器に送られる結果、均一且つ安定した泡を作り、被駆除室内の床面を確実に被覆することができるので好ましい。
【0010】
請求項2記載の上記「床面発泡被覆装置」には、請求項3に示すように、更に上記貯留槽に接続される第3気体供給管と、該第3気体供給管を介して該貯留槽に気体を供給する第3気体供給手段と、を備えるものとすることができる。このような構成を備える床面発泡被覆装置によれば、上記第3気体供給手段から供給される気体によって上記貯留槽内で界面活性剤水溶液を発泡させることができ、更に上記第1気体供給手段や発泡機等によって、使用する界面活性剤の性質に合わせて適当な泡状態に調節することができるので好ましい。
【0011】
このような第3気体供給管と第3気体供給手段とを備える床面発泡被覆装置として、例えば、請求項4に示すように、界面活性剤水溶液を収容する貯留槽1と、該貯留槽1に接続される第3気体供給管18と、該第3気体供給管18を介して該貯留槽1に気体を供給する第3気体供給手段19と、該界面活性剤水溶液を送出する第1送出管11及び送出手段と、該第1送出管11に接続される発泡器3と、該発泡器3に接続される第2気体供給管14と、該第2気体供給管14を介して該発泡器3に気体を供給する第2気体供給手段15と、該発泡器3に接続され再度発泡された界面活性剤水溶液を該発泡器3から送出する第2送出管16と、を備えている床面発泡被覆装置B2が挙げられる(図3参照)。また、この場合、図3に示すように、第1気体供給管12及び第1気体供給手段13を設けるのが通常であるが、図4に示すように、第1気体供給管12及び第1気体供給手段13を用いない構成とすることができる。
【0012】
更に、上記「発泡器」として、発泡器本体の一端部35が開放され、他端部36が密閉され、且つ界面活性剤供給管31と気体供給管32が該他端部36に気密状態で取り付けられ、上記発泡器本体37内の該他端部36に近い位置に開口し、更に、上記発泡器本体37内に、その内側断面形状と略同一の形状であって、上記界面活性剤供給管31と気体供給管32の開口端近傍から順次上記一端部35側に向かって、適宜間隔をもって取り付けられた複数の網状体33a〜fを備えるものとすることができる(図5参照)。かかる複数の網状体33a〜fを備え、上記界面活性剤供給管31と気体供給管32を所定位置に配置することにより、界面活性剤水溶液を効率的に泡化することができ、また、泡の径、膜厚、均一度を調整して、流動性、消泡時間の調整等、泡の諸性質を広い範囲にわたって調整することができるので好ましい。この場合、上記気体供給管32は、発泡器本体37の上記他端部36に最も近い位置に取り付けられた第1網状体33aに接して開口したものとすることができ、上記界面活性剤供給管31が第1網状体33aと適宜の間隔をもって、且つ第1網状体33aに次いで上記他端部36に近い位置に取り付けられた第2網状体33bに接して開口したものとすることができる。また、上記界面活性剤供給管31の開口部は、その近傍が絞り込まれ、開口端の径を他の部位の径の1/5〜3/5とした絞り部38を有するものとすることができる。
【0013】
上記「分配管」は、吐出口を有し、発泡させた上記界面活性剤水溶液を被駆除室内の床及び腰壁の少なくとも1つの表面に供給するものである。上記「分配管」は、吐出口を有し、発泡させた上記界面活性剤水溶液を被駆除室内の床及び腰壁の少なくとも1つの表面に供給することができる限り、その大きさ、長さ、形状及び材質については特に限定はなく、請求項1記載の不快害虫駆除装置を設ける箇所、被駆除室内の状況等に応じて種々のものとすることができる。例えば、被駆除室の床や壁面に設置できるようにパイプ状のものとしたり、あるいは、被駆除室の床や壁面に固定せずに、移動可能で必要に応じて使用できるようにホース状のものとすることができる。また、上記吐出口の個数、形状、上記「分配管」に設ける箇所についても、発泡させた上記界面活性剤水溶液を被駆除室内の床及び腰壁の少なくとも1つの表面に供給することができる限り特に限定はなく、必要に応じて種々のものとすることができる。例えば、分配管から分岐した放出部として設けたり、分配管の途中に孔を設けたり、あるいは、ホース等のように、略筒状の一方が開口しているものとすることができる。
【0014】
本発明の不快害虫駆除装置において、上記床面発泡被覆装置と上記不快害虫駆除物質噴霧装置は一体型でもよいが、分離型とすることもできる。分離型とすれば、室内に設置する際に省スペース化を図ることができ、設置される室内の具体的状況に応じて上記床面発泡被覆装置と上記不快害虫駆除物質噴霧装置を配置することができる結果、効率的に不快害虫駆除物質噴霧を室内に行き渡らせると共に、床面や壁面を発泡被覆することができるので好ましい。
【0015】
本発明の不快害虫駆除装置は、不快害虫駆除物質を噴霧散布すると共に、発泡させた上記界面活性剤水溶液を上記被駆除室内の床及び腰壁の少なくとも1つの表面に供給し、一定時間放置するものであるが、請求項5に示すように、その後、水を供給して発泡させた上記界面活性剤水溶液及び/又は不快害虫を流し去るものとすることができる。かかる構成とすることにより、不快害虫駆除後、発泡させた上記界面活性剤水溶液や不快害虫を床面から速やかに除去することができるので好ましい。
【0016】
また、本発明の不快害虫駆除装置には、請求項6に示すように、更に、発泡させた上記界面活性剤水溶液及び/又は水を供給する圧送ポンプを備えるものとすることができる。かかる圧送ポンプを備えることにより、発泡被覆する箇所が広範囲であっても、発泡させた上記界面活性剤水溶液を十分に行き渡らせることができる結果、より確実に被覆することができ、また、目的達成後に水を供給することにより、発泡させた上記界面活性剤水溶液を速やかに除去することができるので好ましい。この場合、請求項7に示すように、上記圧送ポンプはバルブを有し、且つ上記圧送ポンプの作動若しくは停止及び/又は上記バルブの開閉を自動的にコントロールする制御装置を備えるものとすると、発泡被覆と発泡させた上記界面活性剤水溶液の除去を自動的に行うことができる結果、少ない人手でも効率的に不快害虫の駆除を行うことができるので好ましい。
【0017】
請求項8記載の発明の不快害虫駆除方法は、被駆除室に不快害虫駆除物質を空中噴霧し、界面活性剤水溶液を発泡させて得た泡により被駆除室における床の全面又はその一部を被覆することを特徴とする。一般に、不快害虫駆除物質によりフラッシュアウトを引き起こしたゴキブリ等の不快害虫のうち、死ぬのは7〜8割程度であり、依然として2〜3割程度の不快害虫が生き延びることがあるが、かかる方法によると、上記被駆除室に不快害虫駆除物質を空中噴霧するすることにより、僅かな隙間や室内の様々な器具・設備により隠れる部分についても不快害虫駆除物質が行き渡る結果、従来のように人の手により清掃・駆除を行う場合よりも効率的に駆除を行うことができ、また、フラッシュアウトを引き起こすことにより、不快害虫を床面に誘導することができる。そして、この過程に加えて、更に、界面活性剤水溶液を発泡させて得た泡により被駆除室における床の全面又はその一部を被覆しておくことにより、フラッシュアウトを引き起こして床面に誘導された不快害虫は、上記界面活性剤を発泡させて得た泡と接触し、より確実に死滅又は不動状態にさせることができる。その結果、ピレスロイド系薬剤やオゾン等の不快害虫駆除物質の使用量を増加せずとも、従来よりもさらに効率的且つより確実にゴキブリ等のような不快害虫を駆除することができる。
【0018】
請求項8記載の発明の不快害虫駆除方法において、界面活性剤水溶液を発泡させて得た泡により被駆除室における床の全面又はその一部を被覆する過程で用いられる上記「界面活性剤」としては、水に発泡するものであり、且つ不快害虫を死滅又は不動状態にする作用があれば特に限定されない。上記「界面活性剤」は、水溶液の状態又は水中に分散させて用いることができ、その濃度については特に限定はないが、好ましくは0.1重量%以上とすることができる。0.1重量%以上とすることにより、上記界面活性剤を発泡させたときに発泡状態を十分に保持することができるので好ましい。上記「界面活性剤」として、例えば、グリセリン脂肪酸エステル、ショ糖脂肪酸エステル、ポリオキシエチレン脂肪酸エステル、ポリオキシプロピレン脂肪酸エステル、ポリオキシオレイン酸ナトリウム、ポリオキシエチレンモノアルキルエーテル、アルキルアミンオキシエチレン付加物等が挙げられ、1種又は2種以上を併用して用いることができる。
【0019】
上記グリセリン脂肪酸エステルとしては、界面活性作用があるものであれば特に限定されず、この脂肪酸は高級脂肪酸を意味し、通常、炭素数が8〜20程度のものが使用される。上記グリセリン脂肪酸エステルの例としては、グリセリンモノステアレート、グリセリンモノオレエート、デカグリセリンモノオレエート、グリセリン酢酸脂肪酸エステル、グリセリン乳酸脂肪酸エステル、グリセリンクエン酸脂肪酸エステル、グリセリンコハク酸脂肪酸エステル、グリセリンジアセチル酒石酸脂肪酸エステル、グリセリン酢酸エステル等が挙げられるが、これらのうちデカグリセリンモノオレエートが好ましく用いられる。また、上記ショ糖脂肪酸エステルとしては、界面活性作用があるものであれば特に限定されず、この脂肪酸は高級脂肪酸を意味し、通常、炭素数が8〜20程度のものが使用される。また、このエステルとしては、モノエステル、ジエステル、トリエステル等が挙げられ、このうち、モノエステル、ジエステルが好ましく用いられる。また、上記ポリオキシエチレンモノアルキルエーテルのアルキルとしては、特に限定されないが、炭素数10〜18のアルキルが好ましく用いられる。
【0020】
請求項8記載の不快害虫駆除方法において、上記「界面活性剤」として、グリセリン脂肪酸エステル、ショ糖脂肪酸エステル及びオレイン酸ナトリウムから選ばれる少なくとも1種を用いた場合、この10000ppm水溶液のBODを5000ppm以上(好ましくは8000ppm以上、更に好ましくは10000ppm以上)とすると、不快害虫、特にゴキブリを効率的に駆除でき、しかも、生分解性に優れていることから、排水浄化、環境保全の点で好ましい。また、上記「界面活性剤」を含む泡は、上記不快害虫駆除物質や洗浄剤、あるいは除菌剤を含む水溶液と空気とを任意の割合で混合できる発泡器を用いて形成することができる。これにより、更に確実に不快害虫を駆除したり、あるいは、床面の汚れを除去したり、除菌することができるので好ましい。
【0021】
請求項8記載の不快害虫駆除方法において、界面活性剤水溶液を発泡させて得た泡による被駆除室における床面の被覆方法は、被駆除室における床の全面又はその一部を上記泡により被覆することができる限り特に限定はない。通常は、図Xに示すような床面に設けられた分配管等を通じて直接床面に上記泡を供給することによって被覆するが、その他、壁面に上記泡を供給することにより被覆することもできる。この場合、壁面に供給された泡は時間と共に壁面を伝って床面に行き渡り、床面を被覆することができる。
【0022】
また、請求項8記載の不快害虫駆除方法における上記不快害虫駆除物質の噴霧方法については、室内に不快害虫駆除物質を噴霧できる限り特に限定はなく、例えば、上記不快害虫駆除物質が気体であれば、予めボンベ等に充填し、散布孔を有し、天井や壁面、床面等に敷設され、あるいは天井や壁面、床面等に敷設せずに持ち運び可能な状態で上記ボンベと接続し、必要に応じて散布量の調節バルブを備える散布管を用いて噴霧したり、その他、ボンベ等の充填容器や不快害虫駆除物質発生器から直接噴霧したりすることができる。また、上記不快害虫駆除物質が液体の場合は、該不快害虫駆除物質を加熱気化してから送風器や圧縮気体により噴霧したり、あるいは、不快害虫駆除物質を充填した容器に圧縮気体を導入することによって超微粒子化することにより外部に噴霧することができる。尚、上記「不快害虫駆除物質」としては、上記のように、不快害虫を駆除することができ、かかる目的を達成するために一般に用いられているものであれば特に限定はなく、例えば、ピレスピロイド系薬剤やオゾン等が挙げられる。
【0023】
請求項8記載の発明の不快害虫駆除方法において、上記界面活性剤水溶液を発泡させて得た泡により被駆除室における床の全面又はその一部を被覆する過程と、上記被駆除室に不快害虫駆除物質を空中噴霧する過程の順序についても特に限定はない。通常は、界面活性剤水溶液を発泡させて得た泡により被駆除室における床の全面又はその一部を被覆した後に、上記被駆除室に不快害虫駆除物質を空中噴霧するが、逆に、上記被駆除室に不快害虫駆除物質を空中噴霧した後に、界面活性剤水溶液を発泡させて得た泡により被駆除室における床の全面又はその一部を被覆してもよい。
【0024】
請求項8記載の不快害虫駆除方法において、被駆除室に不快害虫駆除物質を空中噴霧する過程と、界面活性剤水溶液を発泡させて得た泡により被駆除室における床の全面又はその一部を被覆する過程を行う方法については特に限定はなく、請求項9に示すように、不快害虫駆除物質を噴霧状態で散布することができる不快害虫駆除物質噴霧装置により、被駆除室に不快害虫駆除物質を空中噴霧し、界面活性剤水溶液を発泡させる発泡器及び該発泡器に接続され、発泡させた上記界面活性剤水溶液を被駆除室内の床及び腰壁の少なくとも1つの表面に供給するための吐出口を有する分配管を備える床面発泡被覆装置により、界面活性剤水溶液を発泡させて得た泡で被駆除室における床の全面又はその一部を被覆することによって行うことができる。
【0025】
本発明の不快害虫駆除方法では、請求項10に示すように、更に洗浄水を上記床面上に供給して上記不快害虫及び/又は上記泡を洗い流すことができる。かかる方法によれば、駆除後の上記泡を速やかに除去できると共に、本発明の不快害虫駆除方法により駆除された不快害虫の死骸の除去も容易に行うことができるので好ましい。この場合、請求項11に示すように、上記泡の供給は、厨房の床面の周縁部に配設された配管を介して行われ、上記不快害虫の洗い流しによる除去は、一定時間後に該配管を介して供給される洗浄水により行うことができる。また、請求項12に示すように、上記泡の供給は自動的に行われ、上記不快害虫の洗浄水の供給は一定時間後に自動的に行われ、且つ、この洗い流される水は排水孔に集約され排水されるものとすることができる。かかる方法によれば、不快害虫の駆除を自動的に行うことができる結果、少ない人手でも効率的に不快害虫の駆除を行うことができるので好ましい。
【0026】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下に本発明の実施例を示して、本発明の効果を説明する。
(1)不快害虫駆除装置
本実施例の不快害虫駆除装置の概略図を図1に示す。
本実施例の不快害虫駆除装置は、不快害虫駆除物質噴霧装置Aと床面発泡被覆装置Bにより構成されるものである。不快害虫駆除物質噴霧装置Aは、不快害虫駆除物質としてオゾンガスを用いるものであり、その本体の内部にオゾン発生器(図示せず)を有し、本体には発生したオゾンガスを散布するための散布口(図示せず)を有する構成である。そして、上記不快害虫駆除物質噴霧装置Aは、床面発泡被覆装置Bとは分離した形態で被駆除室8の上部壁面に設置されている。
【0027】
また、床面発泡被覆装置Bは、界面活性剤を収容する貯留槽1と、水を収容する水収容容器2と、界面活性剤を発泡させる発泡器3と、該発泡器3に接続する界面活性剤供給管31及び気体供給管32と、上記各容器に接続されるバルブ41〜44と、界面活性剤、水又は発泡した界面活性剤を供給する1個の圧送ポンプ5と、各容器1〜2、各バルブ41〜44及び圧送ポンプ5を各々接続する配管6と、分配管7とを備えるものである。上記分配管7は、パイプ状で被駆除室内8の床面隅に敷設されており、その管には吐出部71〜77が設けられている。また、上記発泡器3は、図5に示すように、界面活性剤供給管31と、気体供給管32と、製泡機本体37内に、その内側断面形状と略同一の形状であって、適宜間隔をもって取り付けられた複数の網状体33a〜fを備える。尚、上記気体供給管32は、コンプレッサー、送風機等の空気供給源(図示せず)に接続されている。
【0028】
また、本実施例の不快害虫駆除装置では、自動制御装置9によって、上記不快害虫駆除物質噴霧装置A及び上記床面発泡被覆装置Bの圧送ポンプ4の運転並びにバルブ41〜44の開閉を自動的に制御している。
【0029】
(2)不快害虫駆除方法
被駆除室8として、図1に示すような床面積が80m2である厨房A及びBを用意した。そして、本実施例の不快害虫駆除装置の貯留槽1には、濃度1.0重量%の界面活性剤(デカグリセリンモノオレエート)水溶液を収容した。終業後、自動制御装置9によって、不快害虫駆除物質噴霧装置Aからオゾンガスを被駆除室9内に散布した。次いで、10分後に上記床面発泡被覆装置Bの圧送ポンプ5を作動させ、上記貯留槽1から界面活性剤供給管31を経て発泡器3へ界面活性剤水溶液を供給し、同時に気体供給管32を経て送風機によって発泡器3へ空気を供給することにより、上記界面活性剤水溶液を発泡させた。
【0030】
そして、発泡させた上記界面活性剤水溶液は、分配管7の吐出部71〜77から吐き出させ、厨房A及びBの床面一面に泡(気液比20対1)を連続的に供給し滞留させ、2時間放置した。その後、バルブ41及び43を閉鎖し、バルブ42及び44を開放して、水収容容器2から供給される洗浄水を分配管7の吐出部71〜77から吐き出させ、床清掃を終えた。翌朝、排水溝内のゴキブリの死骸数を数え、これを1週間継続した。その結果を以下の表1に示す。
【0031】

【0032】

Traditionally, in food facilities at supermarkets, school, offices, etc., or kitchen facilities in cafeterias, it is not only a sanitary problem for food and cooking utensils, but it can be used to control unpleasant insects such as cockroaches. It is also regarded as important from the viewpoint of food poisoning, food contamination, etc. Particularly in recent years, with the introduction of HACCP (hazard analysis [hazard analysis], critical control points [important control points]) and the enforcement of the PL Law, more stringent hygiene management is required in departments that handle food. Therefore, it is a very important problem to control unpleasant pests such as cockroaches. As a method generally used as a method for extinguishing such unpleasant pests, it is possible to exterminate it by human hands as soon as it is discovered, and to maintain a clean environment by frequently cleaning the floor surface. .
[0003]
However, there are various equipment and facilities in the room, especially in the kitchen, and cockroaches can enter even with a slight gap and are mainly active at night. It is not always easy to do. Moreover, when cleaning, there exists a problem that it is difficult to clean about the part hidden by these instruments and equipment. Furthermore, it is easy to get dirty like a restaurant kitchen, and much labor is required to clean a large floor surface, and it is difficult to perform efficient cleaning without unevenness in a short time. In particular, recently, in response to customer demands associated with lifestyle changes, supermarkets and cafeterias have been extended more than before and holidays have decreased, resulting in uncomfortable floors, especially cockroaches. It is difficult to allocate the cleaning work time in the kitchen where pest control is strongly required, and it is becoming difficult to secure the cleaning time. In order to solve such a problem by cleaning after work, etc., the number of cleaning personnel must be increased, resulting in a high labor cost. Therefore, there has been a need for an unpleasant pest control apparatus and an unpleasant pest control method that can efficiently and more reliably control unpleasant pests such as cockroaches.
