While running this command php artisan db:seed I get this error: "Call to undefined function Database\Seeders\table()" Screen shot: error in db seeding

As I am new to laravel , I coundn't fix the bug of my code after searching for various examples.I created a model by php artisan make:model ServiceCategory -m command which created this model ServiceCategory.php :

    <?php

namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class ServiceCategory extends Model
{
    use HasFactory;
}

and also created a migration 2022_07_20_200919_create_service_categories_table.php file :

<?php

use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;

return new class extends Migration
{
    /**
     * Run the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('service_categories', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->id();
            $table->string('name');
            $table->string('slug')->index();
            $table->string('image'); 
            $table->timestamps();
        });
    }

    /**
     * Reverse the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function down()
    {
        Schema::dropIfExists('service_categories');
    }
};

Then I created a seeder name : ServiceCategorySeeder.php :

<?php

namespace Database\Seeders;

// use Illuminate\Database\Console\Seeds\WithoutModelEvents;
use Illuminate\Database\Seeder;

class ServiceCategorySeeder extends Seeder
{
    
    public function run()
    {
        DB:table('service_categories')->insert([
            [
                "name"=> "AC Installation",
                "slug"=>"ac-installation",
                "image"=>"ac installation.png"
            ],
            [
                "name"=> "AC Uninstallation",
                "slug"=>"ac-uninstallation",
                "image"=>"ac uninstallation.png"
            ],
            [
                "name"=> "AC Repair",
                "slug"=>"ac-repair",
                "image"=>"ac repair.png"
            ],
            [
                "name"=> "Laundry",
                "slug"=>"laundry",
                "image"=>"laundry.png"
            ],
            [
                "name"=> "Electrical",
                "slug"=>"electrical",
                "image"=>"electrical.png"
            ],
            [
                "name"=> "Plumbing",
                "slug"=>"plumbing",
                "image"=>"plumbing.png"
            ],
            [
                "name"=> "Painting",
                "slug"=>"painting",
                "image"=>"painting.png"
            ],
            [
                "name"=> "House Shifitng",
                "slug"=>"house shifitng",
                "image"=>"house-shifitng.png"
            ],
            [
                "name"=> "Tank Cleaning",
                "slug"=>"tank cleaning",
                "image"=>"tank-cleaning.png"
            ],
            [
                "name"=> "Furniture",
                "slug"=>"furniture",
                "image"=>"furniture.png"
            ],
            [
                "name"=> "Home Deep Cleaning",
                "slug"=>"home-deep-cleaning",
                "image"=>"home deep cleaning.png"
            ],
            [
                "name"=> "Bathroom Deep Cleaning",
                "slug"=>"bathroom-deep-cleaning",
                "image"=>"bathroom deep cleaning.png"
            ]
            
            ]);
    }
}

also modified DatabaseSeeder.php is:

<?php

namespace Database\Seeders;
// use Illuminate\Database\Console\Seeds\WithoutModelEvents;

use Illuminate\Database\Seeder;

class DatabaseSeeder extends Seeder
{
    /**
     * Seed the application's database.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function run()
    {
        $this->call([
            ServiceCategorySeeder::class
        ]);
    }
}

The successfully running the command : composer dump-autoload I ran the command php artisan db:seed which lead the this error is ss:

Thank you advance for your help.

In your seeder, you need DB::table instead of DB:table
