Hot Foot America
Hot Foot America offers a series of exclusion screens, including strip doors, slide-up and roll-up screens, that work against birds and insects. The stainless steal and aluminum mesh mean the screens are fire retardant and mildew/UV resistant, the company says. The roll-up door is available with an electric motor, hand crank or spring action. The slide away screen is a door that slides away to cover openings such as doors, garages and many other entrances. Hot Foot America also produces strip doors available in three different forms: standard, ribbed and USDA/low temperature for refrigerated areas. Combo doors are made from heavy-duty insect exclusion mesh holes and have heavy-duty clear or black PVC on the lower portion to reduce the damage caused by fork truck traffic. Finally, for heavy usage applications, Hot Foot America supplies hybrid doors that have clear PVC strips for the most frequently used portion of the doorway and insect exclusion strips for the remainder.

Innovative Pest Control Products
Innovative Pest Control Products announces the availability of the Ant & Roach Café RTU. The Ant & Roach Café RTU is a liquid bait station filled with ¾ ounces of Gourmet Liquid Ant Bait. Gourmet Liquid Ant Bait can be used for the control of sweet- and protein-feeding ants and German cockroaches. There is no known resistance to the active ingredient (DOT) in either ants or roaches, IPCP reports.
The Ant & Roach Café RTU is based on a new U.S. patent granted to IPCP earlier this year. This new bait station benefits from a stable design that resists tipping. If fully inverted, it will only allow a few drops of bait to spill out. The design also reduces exposure of the bait to the environment and keeps bait fresh and attractive longer.

Rush Hampton
Rush Hampton has introduced the new Mosquito Catcher. The Mosquito Catcher continuously attracts, captures and pulverizes mosquitoes, effectively removing the mosquito population from outdoor environments, Rush Hampton reports. Mosquitoes are attracted to the Mosquito Catcher’s heat and light sources and are drawn in to a high-velocity fan that pulls them into the unit. The mosquitoes are pulverized and dehydrated, the company says, reducing them to tiny particles that are collected in a drawer at the bottom of the unit.
The Mosquito Catcher was designed to provide mosquito control for porches, patios balconies and backyards. The Mosquito Catcher is compact and low profile, designed to fit in to any outdoor environment. Each unit is packaged with two sets of legs. The Mosquito Catcher may be assembled with the short set of legs to be used on hard surfaces, such as a deck or patio. Maintenance of the Mosquito Catcher unit is minimal, the company says. The unit is constructed of powder-coated metal to resist rust. The unit uses the same amount of electricity as a 40 watt light bulb, making it inexpensive to run.
