The continuing effort to control mosquitoes can now add a potential wall of infrared light to the list. The light can be used to form a wall separating space that will block mosquitoes from moving through it. The light barrier won't seem to hurt the mosquitoes, merely scare and repel them. The device will be easy to use, requiring only a standard laser to block an entryway.

I have the idea which could return a great interest for pet shop keepers. Why not make tattoos on fishes? There could be any kind of tattoo... either a text (like "I love you", "Merry Christmas" or whatever) or a small picture. A customer would have an option.

I spent much time making my cat stop peeing all around my house. Below are a couple of tips that helped me (hope they could help somebody else). * Keep the litter box clean! Cats can be picky creatures. If their regular watering hole isn't as sparkling as they would like it to be, they will find somewhere else to go. * Clean old messes thoroughly. Cats are creatures of habit. They will continue to pee on your carpet until they can smell their own vile urine there. *...

Eatable, aerosol, scented or un-scented, cat box spray lubricant that is a non-toxic film or sheen of oily type material that would keep your cat box or cat pan from having kitty waste from sticking or soiling the cat box.

Owners of large marine aquariums have to do regular water changes, monthly or more often, a messy, wet job that COULD be made much simpler. What I want invented is a "bi-directional in-line electrical water pump" with tubing on either end, that does NOT need to be submerged to work. Here's how I envision it: Step 1) Plug it in. Stick one end of the tubing in my tank and the other end in an empty 5-gal water container. Turn it on, it pumps the water out into the container. (Like siphoning...

I have a cat whom no matter what I do, likes to pee on things. I've used the spray that you put on your carpet or rug to get the scent out. It works but seems like he always finds a new place. I have an idea of putting the cat spray product in an air freshener unit, something you would plug into the wall, that puts out a scent in the room, that will have your cat going to the litter box and not going on your carpet. Also I have an idea to make cat nip into a liquid that you can spray your...

All owners would love to communicate better with their pets, but all of us have our physical shortcomings. Cats can't talk, and humans lack the expressive ears and tail movements used by cats to show their moods. I'm told that to horses, humans appear permanently aggressive because our ears "aren't sticking up in a friendly manner". Similarly, your cat must gaze at your "ear-less" face, wondering what on earth you're thinking. Large, artificial cats' ears can be fitted to the owner's...
