The invention relates to a device (01, 20, 22) for repelling insects (03, 08) that move along the ground, particularly termites, so as to protect buildings or parts of buildings. The inventive device comprises a support element (12, 21, 23) that is made of an electrically insulating material and at least two electrical conductor elements (04, 05, 06) which are disposed thereupon parallel to and at a distance from each other and between which a voltage can be applied by means of a voltage source. The distance between the conductor elements (04, 05, 06) is at least slightly smaller than the length of the insects (03, 08) that are to be repelled such that the insects (03, 08) form a current-conducting connection between the conductor elements (04, 05, 06) when passing the support element (12, 21, 23) perpendicular to the conductor elements (04, 05, 06). Said conductor elements (04, 05, 06) run in a vertically staggered manner at different heights. An at least small difference in height exists between the lowest conductor element (06) and the subjacent surface (07).

Dispositif (01, 20, 22) destiné à chasser des insectes (03, 08) se déplaçant sur le sol, en particulier les termites, pour protéger des bâtiments ou parties de bâtiment. Ledit dispositif comporte un élément de support (12, 21, 23) constitué d'une matière électriquement isolante et au moins deux éléments électriquement conducteurs (04, 05, 06) parallèles l'un à l'autre et espacés l'un de l'autre, situés sur la matière électriquement isolante, et sur lesquels peut être appliquée une tension électrique à l'aide d'une source de tension. L'écart entre les éléments conducteurs (04, 05, 06) est au moins légèrement plus petit que la longueur des insectes (03, 08) à repousser, si bien que lorsqu'ils passent sur l'élément de support (12, 21, 23) dans un sens transversal par rapport aux éléments conducteurs (04, 05, 06), les insectes (03, 08) forment une connexion conductrice de courant entre les éléments conducteurs (04, 05, 06). Lesdits éléments conducteurs (04, 05, 06) sont verticalement décalés à des hauteurs différentes, une hauteur au moins minime séparant l'élément conducteur (06) situé le plus bas et la surface (07) s'étendant sous ledit dispositif.
