Abstract

A field portable electrical impulse apparatus is disclosed for reducing the adverse affects on living tissue of pest attacks and poison injection. The apparatus includes a direct current electrical energy source connected by way of a rotary-type switch to a plurality of capacitors. The outputs of the capacitors are connected to a probe's electrodes so that various current levels can be selected. When the probe is placed into contact with the affected living tissue the desired level of electrical energy is applied directly thereto.
