| Summary: | The solar insecticidal lamp (SIL) is an electronic device designed for physical pest control, widely utilized in orchards and farmland. Currently, the characteristic of the phototactic rhythm of pest is commonly ignored in the design of SILs, hindering pest control. This phenomenon is particularly evident in the prolonged turning <sc>on/off</sc>lamp, which leads to inefficient energy utilization due to the lack of adjustment for peak pest activity. To address this issue, four models based on the phototactic rhythm of pests are developed to adjust the insecticidal timing of SIL for precise pest control. These mathematical models are established considering the phototactic rhythm of four pests that exert the most significant impact on crops, namely <italic>Mythimna seperata</italic>, <italic>Helicoverpa armigera</italic>, <italic>Proxenus lepigone</italic>, and <italic>Cnaphalocrocis medinalis</italic>. The results indicate that mathematical modeling of the phototactic rhythm of the pest is valuable in capturing their nocturnal activity patterns. The proposed mathematical model can help to optimize the <sc>on/off</sc>time of SIL for pest control. The integration of electronic devices, such as SIL in pest management represents a noteworthy advancement in agricultural electronics, contributing to the progress of smart and sustainable agriculture. |
