| Research Abstract |
A plasma field screen (plasma repeller) was proposed to physically exclude insect pests from greenhouses, food factories and warehouses. All insects were completely prevented from passing through the screen. In addition, the capability of the plasma field to capture insects that enter inside the screen was clarified in this study.
