On Sept. 3, the United States Patent Office issued patent number 10,398,141 to Rockwell Labs for the company’s invention titled “breakable non-flowing gel bait.”

The technology was developed by Rockwell’s founder and CEO Dr. Cisse Spragins in 2005 and first commercialized in 2009 with the launch of the company’s InTice Gelanimo Ant Bait.

The unique rigid gel bait technology provides the high-moisture bait insects are attracted to, in an easy-to-deploy format, giving users “the advantages of liquid bait, and more, but without the mess,” the company says. Target insects are also never at risk of drowning or getting stuck in the bait, which might signal danger to other insects, Rockwell Labs added.

InTice Gelanimo Ant Bait contains borax as the active ingredient and is available in simple-to-use 0.25-ounce stations, in 4-ounce cups that fit in the InTice Border Patrol System station for large colony baiting and in boxes of five 35-gram syringes.
