New Products

PestWest

PestWest recently introduced flyDetect, a 24/7 fly control remote monitoring system. The fly trap has a built-in wide-angle camera, which takes a high-resolution image of the entire sticky board daily or on demand.

Using the latest data capture and analysis technology, the flyDetect system alerts the pest control professional either via the dedicated flyDetect mobile app or the web-based app when a fly capture threshold is reached. Capture thresholds can be tailored to the sensitivity of the situation in which the flyDetect is being used. The alerts are based on a traffic light system of green, amber and red.

flyDetect images also can be reviewed in high resolution, allowing the pest control professional to make informed and proactive decisions in real-time when a threshold alert has been triggered.

Fred Hurstel, sales director for PestWest, said, “We are very excited to be launching flyDetect. It has been years in the making and the first of its kind in the pest control industry. Many industries that have highly sensitive areas such as food, packaging, health care and pharmaceutical industries will be amazed with the new technology.”
