Because of this season’s spike in rodents across the country, we’ve rounded up a number of the latest technologies for optimum control.

Bayer
RMS
The Bayer Rodent Monitoring System (RMS) now features a smaller, sleeker sensor design that allows it to fit in multiple bait stations. The newly upgraded system also can count bait station activity as an alternative to immediate alerts. This enables the ability to create activity heat maps to analyze areas of exterior rodent pressure, and correlates to bait consumption. Learn more at BeyondSmarterBusiness.com.

Fastrac Soft Bait
Fastrac Soft Bait is an acute rodenticide with an exclusive, oil-based formulation that has a precise balance between saturated and unsaturated fats and will not freeze in cold climates. The acute bromethalin active ingredient, paired with Bell’s proprietary soft bait formulation, can help knock down rodent infestations at accounts. Technicians will use less bait vs. anticoagulants and may see more effective results, as rodents may consume a lethal dose in a single night’s feeding, which reduces the amount of bait required to achieve control. Fastrac Soft Bait is available in a 4-pound pail size. Learn more at BellLabs.com.

Rodenthor
The Rodenthor line consists of rodent block bait, soft bait, rat bait stations and snap traps. Both baits contain the advanced anticoagulant, single-feeding active ingredient bromadiolone at a concentration of .005 percent. They are labeled for use in a wide range of locations, including in and around homes and residential buildings; food processing facilities; industrial, commercial, agricultural and public buildings; and similar manmade structures.

Catch Zone
Measuring 60 feet x 12 inches, the Catchmaster Catch Zone Pest Boundary Roll allows you to cover more in less time. It works great for warehouses, food production facilities and supermarkets. And with 300 percent more glue for extra holding power and a heavier paper that lays flatter, it is an ideal tool for hotspots or cleanouts required in recently re-opened accounts.

Attic Attack Rodent Bait Station
Neogen’s patented Attic Attack Bait Station places rodent bait right where roof rats and mice are active — while eliminating the need to climb up into difficult-to-access attic spaces. The mounting base’s exclusive design installs easily in all ceiling types, the company says. The base stays in place, while the station can be removed and baited without the need for a key. Once bait is consumed, an indicator flag will drop, alerting you it’s time for more bait. The station is designed to accommodate all of Neogen’s block-style and soft baits, including Command, Assault and Guardian. Learn more at NeogenProfessionalPest.com.
