In addition to the popular 0.4 oz ready-to-use station, Rockwell Labs Ltd’s new patent-pending InTice Gelanimo Ant Bait is now available in 35-gram syringes and 4-ounce cups. The syringe works well for cracks, crevices and other areas where a station isn’t needed or is undesirable. The 35-gram syringes are sold in boxes of five with one plunger. The 4-ounce cup is ready to pop the top and drop in the new InTice Border Patrol System. The 4-ounce cup can be used to "spoon" out larger quantities of bait, or placed inside other stations, such as rodent stations. The 4-ounce cup is sold in boxes of 12.

Additionally, InTice Gelanimo Ant Bait is now registered in California and New York. However, while the 0.4 oz ready-to-use station is registered for use in New York, the 35-gram syringe and 4-ounce cup are not yet registered in that state.

Bayer Environmental Science announced its 40-pound units of Maxforce Granular Fly Bait now will be available in a plastic bag within a corrugated box. The 40-pound plastic buckets will no longer be available and the new container will be delivered with 20 units per pallet, instead of 18. The company says the new packaging uses less plastic than the original plastic buckets and is easier to dispose of and recycle. The change is part of the company’s Protecting Tomorrow Today initiative to keep sustainability in mind while developing products.

With broad label use direction, the bait can be applied as a broadcast application, placed in bait stations or dissolved in water and painted on surfaces outside commercial facilities.

Wildlife Control Supplies

The WCS Tele-Trap Notifier uses cellular technology to notify PMPs that a trap has been tripped, and it can be installed on virtually any trap. The University of Nebraska contributed to this product’s development. To activate the Tele-Trap Notifier, the user programs the cell phone within the unit to call their cell phone. Users program the incoming number to display what they want (e.g., trap location 1, customer name, etc.). When an animal has been captured by triggering a trap, within 90 seconds, the unit uses the internal cell phone to place a call. If the first call is not acknowledged, a back-up call is made five minutes later. After a few minutes of programming, the user will have a dependable and rugged device that can be deployed to virtually any type of trap, the company says.

The Tele-Trap Notifier uses prepaid cell phone service through TracFone, and no monthly recurring charges are required. Users buy minutes and recharge as needed.

When mounted on a cage trap, the Tele-Trap Notifier is secured near the end of the trap so that it is outside the door once the trap is triggered, preventing damage to the unit from animals trapped inside.
