Abstract:
1. A semi-permanent distribution system for applying various pesticides within an interior space of a building structure comprising: a first pipeline having a plurality of solenoid valves located along a length of the first pipeline, the first pipeline being in communication with a pesticide source and a pump and receiving a volume of pesticide from the pesticide source; each solenoid valve of the plurality of solenoid valves having a nozzle; a microcontroller in communication with each solenoid valve of the plurality of solenoid valves; and a second pipeline in communication with a compressed air source and at least one of the solenoid valves of the plurality of solenoid valves; the microcontroller controlling each solenoid valve of the plurality of solenoid valves so that a predetermined amount of pesticide is distributed by each solenoid valve through its corresponding nozzle according to a predetermined firing sequence; the predetermined amount of pesticide being distributed by the corresponding nozzle of any solenoid valve of the plurality of solenoid valves being independent of the predetermined amount of pesticide being distributed by any other corresponding nozzle of another solenoid valve of the plurality of solenoid valves; the microcontroller also controlling a predetermined amount of air flow to the at least one solenoid valve of the plurality of solenoid valves in communication with the second pipeline; the predetermined amount of air flow and the predetermined amount of pesticide capable of being delivered through the at least one solenoid valve of the plurality of solenoid valves at a same time; the first and second pipelines being temporarily externally attached to an interior wall surface of the building structure.
