Green Drain is an inline floor drain trap seal used in the outlet connections of floor drain bodies or the inside of floor drain strainers. It can be used in commercial facilities such as restaurant kitchens, bars and food-processing facilities to help seal the drain opening to prevent odors, sewer gases and insects (like drain flies and fruit flies) from coming up through the floor drain. Green Drain’s four flexible silicone sealing ribs ensure easy installation into openings that may have variations in size and the silicone rubber sealing flapper will open to allow drainage and close when there is no water flow. The Green Drain can be used in either new construction or as a retrofit. The product is available in four sizes — 2, 3, 3½ and 4 inches.

Bell Labs

With its ferocious grip, Trapper T-Rex Rat Snap Trap gives superior trapping power for chemical-free accounts or special situations, manufacturer Bell Labs says. Trapper T-Rex combines trigger sensitivity with the trap velocity needed to capture and hold rats. Its patented interlocking teeth make rat escapes virtually impossible, Bell Labs says. Trapper T-Rex sets easily by foot or hand. Its removable bait cup can be withdrawn, filled with an attractant and re-inserted without having the trap set. Trapper T-Rex has multiple uses: placed alone or in pairs back-to-back along rat pathways and wired above ground to pipes or rafters. For additional security or to prevent non-target exposure to children, pets or wildlife, place one of Bell’s rat-sized tamper-resistant bait stations inside that are designed to accommodate T-Rex: EVO Express, EVO Ambush, EVO Circuit, EVO Landscape, Protecta and Sidekick.

PestWest

PestWest says its fly control light Quantum lamps are 40 percent more powerful than standard BL350 lamps; they are FDA compliant and feature a FEP-shatter resistant lamp coating; and they feature UVA- resistant metal construction. Quantum lamps last longer than plastic systems, the company says; they feature a slim design for when space is at a premium; and they feature the patented Reflectobakt sleeve, which extends glueboard life.

The company also offers specialty systems for high-moisture and potentially explosive environments.

Bird Barrier America

ggxit from Bird Barrier is a new tool that fills the valleys between Spanish tiles on solar-panel bird exclusion jobs. Solar panel exclusion work has become one of the most common forms of bird control, Bird Barrier says. Eggxit’s engineered egg-shape dips into the troughs between Spanish tiles and is hog-ringed to the mesh above. Bird Barrier says PMPs can cut Eggxit in half and use both ends or the product works for capping open ends of Spanish tiles. One of the product’s highlights is its ability to rotate. The ends are designed to fit any tile size, style and configuration, the manufacturer says. Also, Bird Barrier says PMPs should consider pitching Eggxit outward slightly when attaching.

Woodstream

Woodstream, the longtime manufacturer of Victor Holdfast glueboards, is transitioning all rodent glueboard products, including item numbers M309, M320 and M319, to a new superior and proprietary Holdfast PRO glue formulation, the firm says. New Holdfast PRO glue is available only from Victor and provides PMPs the most aggressive and highest-performing rodent glueboards available on the market, Woodstream reports. Holdfast PRO is proven to catch more mice and rats plus it greatly reduces pull offs and escapes, the manufacturer says. It is also highly effective at catching insects. Patented Easy Peel clear release liner allows faster easier service. All traps come pre-baited with a synthetic non-allergenic peanut butter scent.

SenesTech

SenesTech, a developer of proprietary technologies for managing animal pest populations through fertility control, announced that the California Department of Pesticide Regulation approved ContraPest for sale and use in California under registration #91601-1-AA.

ContraPest targets the reproductive capabilities of Norway and roof rats. As a highly palatable liquid, the formulation promotes sustained consumption, helping to reduce fertility in both male and female rats, bringing populations down and keeping them down, the company reports. The delivery system is designed to minimize PMP exposure, and ContraPest is dispensed inside tamper-resistant bait stations, minimizing the risks to non-target species, SenesTech says.

ContraPest can be used in IPM programs to help reduce reproduction and magnify the success of IPM protocols or as a standalone, non-lethal solution for customers that are looking to reduce or eliminate the use of lethal methodologies. ContraPest is a Restricted Use Pesticide.
