Electronic Rodent Monitoring (ERM) systems have become an integrated part of the pest control industry, offering new features and tools that provide tremendous benefits to both PMPs and end users.
The key to avoiding a rat or mouse infestation is prevention. All facility managers and quality assurance (QA) professionals look underneath, around, behind and on top of everything in their facility to ensure there are no rats, and no openings for rats to enter. And PMPs serving these facilities do this by inspecting under all machinery and in the smallest, tightest areas in a facility.
Because rodent stations essentially become electronic devices with 24/7 monitoring, a technician doesn’t need to tour the entire facility to find out where problem issues exist. In addition, by knowing the problem areas already the PMP is spending less on labor and call backs.
Many professionals in the industry were complaining that rodent stations were not clean or sanitary. Adding the electronic element made it a product that was viewed by PMPs more often and also offering a greater level of protection.
