ABSTRACT:
An ant blockading apparatus includes: an electric shock circuit board secured on a supporting column standing on a base member laid on a surface, and a platform mounted on an upper portion of the supporting column and positioned above the electric shock circuit board for placing a container of food or the like on the platform; the electric shock circuit board having a plurality of positive electrodes concentrically or parallelly formed on a bottom of the circuit board and electrically connected to a positive pole of a power source, and a plurality of negative electrodes concentrically or parallelly formed on the bottom of the circuit board and electrically connected to a negative pole of the power source, each positive electrode juxtapositional to each negative electrode having an electrically insulative medium sandwiched in between the positive and negative electrodes, whereby upon creeping of an ant over the positive and negative electrodes to shortcircuit the electrodes and the power source, an electric shock will be applied to the ant to cause its falling down or to repel it for preventing ant invasion into the container above the electric shock circuit board.
