Rockwell Labs

Rockwell has introduced EcoVia IB Insect Bloks, which contain a blend of botanical insecticide oils in a pleasantly scented block form, the company says. EcoVia IB emits insecticidal vapors that repel insects from an area and can kill insects in smaller enclosed spaces. The vapor release is enhanced when the Bloks slowly dissolve in water, such as when placed in beverage fountain drip trays or drains. Ideal for repelling small flies such as fruit flies from beer taps, drains and other problem areas, they can be used in conjunction with InVade Bio Bullets, which provide bio sanitation of these areas, the company said. EcoVia IB Bloks also can be used dry to repel ants and other insects from electrical boxes, trash cans and other small enclosed spaces. The Bloks are a FIFRA 25(b) exempt product; they are available in resealable foil pouches containing 36 50-gram Bloks or 15 100-gram Bloks.

MistAway Systems, a manufacturer of mosquito misting systems, has introduced iMistAway, a technology that wirelessly connects its misting control units to the Internet. iMistAway allows MistAway’s dealers to monitor their customers’ misting systems through a web browser or smartphone, enabling activities like auditing the volume of insecticide remaining in the unit and checking for error conditions like a cut line or tripped GFI — without the cost of a service trip.

The solution includes an app that a pest management professional/dealer can load onto its customer’s smartphone. The app can be customized with the dealer’s name and logo and allows customers to see their system’s status or use their smartphones to trigger or stop a mist. The app also enables the customer to easily contact his or her MistAway dealer or Refer a Friend.

With iMistAway, MistAway dealers can reduce operating costs while providing a superior level of service to their customers, the company says. The solution may be retrofitted to all MistAway systems sold since 2007, and is available exclusively to MistAway dealers.
 

Bird-X

Bird-X has added GooseBuster PRO to its line of bird control products. Developed with more than 30 years of research and field tests, the new single-speaker GooseBuster PRO humanely scares geese away from areas up to an acre and a half, building on the success of the larger four-speaker Original GooseBuster, the company said. The new unit delivers the same sonic repelling efficacy as the original unit but is less expensive and designed to cover smaller areas, the firm said.

Featuring an actual alert and alarm calls naturally recorded in the wild, the GooseBuster PRO covers treated areas by broadcasting sounds without chemicals or mess; is harmless to children, pets and people; and is completely humane to birds, Bird-X reports. GooseBuster PRO combines sounds that have proven effective for three decades with newer discoveries such as shotgun sounds and coyote barks. Ideal for condo associations, business parks, lakefront properties and any small area with goose problems, the GooseBuster PRO addresses the need to keep areas free from geese and their droppings. The unit is customizable, and calls can vary in frequency, duration and intervals, and may be combined or randomized, giving the user control of the sounds emitted. The GooseBuster PRO comes with a six-month warranty, a 30-day electronics satisfaction guarantee and full product support.
