1. A system for luring pests comprising:

  • a pest detector adapted to generate a type detection signal having a value indicative of a type of a pest in proximity to the pest detector and further adapted to generate a location signal indicative of a location of the pest within a target zone; and

    a pest lure in electrical communication with the pest detector and adapted to activate responsive to the type detection signal, comprising a light emitter in electrical communication with the pest detector and adapted to emit infrared light and configured to simulate different surface temperatures of various animals based on the value of the type detection signal;

    a pest disabler in electronic communication with the pest detector, the pest disabler comprising;

    at least one electromagnetic energy emitting device in electrical communication with the pest detector and adapted to emit electromagnetic energy, andat least one positioning device in electrical communication with the pest detector, wherein the at least one positioning device is adapted to carry the at least one electromagnetic energy emitting device and to dynamically position the at least one electromagnetic energy emitting device responsive to the location signal to direct the electromagnetic energy emitted by the at least one electromagnetic energy emitting device toward the location of the pest.
