Solutions Must-‐Haves: • Must be portable • Must be easy to use • Must be free of harmful chemicals • Possibly child-‐friendly • Disposable-‐friendly • Innovative • Quiet
Possible Solutions: 1. Recycled;Inflict;Kill;Habitat This solution is designed to use recycled materials to effectively destroy the mouse family. Using a large recycled milk jug, cut a larger hole. Scientist have developed a powder solution that turns regular tap water into a gelatin that release mouse hormones that attracts the mice. In the matter of seconds, the gelatin will inflict a harmful process killing the mouse. The gelatin also acts as a decomposer; once capped the mouse will decompose in the jug. Once fully decomposed, the jug can be thrown away like any regular trash. Everything inside the jug is safe to throw away and isn’t harmful to the environment. 2. Adhesive; Habitat;Rodent;Drug The purpose for this solution is to create a exterminator that doesn’t look like one. The idea is to create a flower-‐like product that has adhesives to trap the rodent and drug the rodent to prevent any squeaking or crying from the animal. This product was designed around the movie “Little Shop of Horrors” in which we designed a flower looking plant that devours rodents. Rodents have very bad eyesight, and rely on their sense of smell so the idea is to have the flower secrete a drug
that attracts rodents. Then once the rodent has entered the mouth of the flower, it will trigger the mouth to shut. 3. Paper Mache; Mouse Hole; Harm; Sticky A DIY solution uses paper mache to create a sticky mouse hole that traps the mouse. The adhesive will eventually cover the mouse and harming the mouse to death. The paper mache is useful because it will create a thick layer of paper wall that acts as a noise canceling trap thus eliminating any crying from animals. 4. Sticky; Swiss; Hunter; Feces This solution involves training mice to become hunters against their own animal group. The idea is to train rodents to use their smell senses to hunter feces to find the main habitat of the infestation. Once located, a special sticky swiss cheese to placed to lour the rodents and exterminate them quickly and easily. 5. Glue; Swiss; Damaging; Booby Trap Mice are known to adapt to their environment, so this solution takes some patients but will effectively eliminate the problem. The idea is to create a dark house like product that seems very inviting to rodents. Something with many holes like a block of swiss cheese. This is supposed to seem inviting so the rodents can adapt that product as their habitat. The product will electrically be monitored and trace how ofter the rodents use that shelter.
The software will then suggest the decision to deploy a glue-‐booby trap that will trap the mice all together.
