No. But you might be interested in SlugBot:
A Scottish university developed something against midges (a similair obnoxious insect). It atracts them with a combination of warmth and carbon dioxide and then sucks them up to die. This is what I got from the press. Not exactly a robot, more a trap, but it was said to work.

Absolutely not! Powering the robot from decomposing slugs? Yuck!
In Canada we have a big problem with mosquitos, a similar device attracts and contains the insects.
