Growers, Products and Pest
In recent years there has been a move away from the use of pesticides in the contol of pests in greenhouses. It is a trend that is increasingly being seen in other areas such as fruit and vegetable cultivation. The trend began as a result of rising problems with insect resistance to chemical pesticides. It gained momentum as the public became increasingly aware that the detremental effects of insecticides were not necessarily confined to insects. Today methods such as biological control where natural enemies of a pest are used to provide cotrol are becoming increasingly popular. Another technique is to monitor pest numbers so closely that any potential pest problem can be ‘nipped in the bud’, and dealt with before use of pesticide becomes the only viable option.

IPM – Integrated Pest Management
In integrated pest management, a variety of alternative pest contol methods are employed in unison to provide control. Sticky boards are used not only to monitor fly activity but also to identify the species involved. By doing this, attacks are detected at an early stage and preventive measures can be taken before the infestion gets out of hand. Sticky boards are also used to eliminate pests by capturing both incoming insects and those already established. Depending on which insect is in question, either yellow or blue sticky boards are use. The sticky boards should be monitored and refreshed at regular intervals.

Agriculture, Products and Pest Combating flies in stables and other buildings where animals are kept is of great importance. Flies are just as irritating for cows and other animals as they are for humans.The flies are attracted to food, moisture and warmth. Animals and their surroundings constitute a perfect environment for flies to live and breed in. With flies moving about between different places, they ultimately become a threat to spread infections. They spread diseases like dysentery, tuberculosis, stomach and intestinal inflammation. Flies affect your economy.Research has shown that breeding animals that are troubled by flies tend to suffer worse growth and a minimized milk production. Plan efforts early. All pest control demands good planning, and that includes combating flies. Since fly reproduction is very quick, two flies can possibly become 25 million before a season comes to an end.

Thus it’s very important to implement measures early, otherwise the situation becomes uncontrollable and that ultimately will demand emergency responses with chemical sprays.Patented productsWe have many products that can be used in the animal breeding environment, both indoors and outdoors. Many of the already proven products are based on our patented design, which ensure effective control. Dealing with rodents rodents like rats and mice can also create big problems in the barns and the stables. Stables usually provide them with an abundance of feasting possibilities. Rodents cause great damage by gnawing and nibbling on different materials and can also destroy the insulation on electrical wiring, which can have deadly consequences (not just for the rodent!). We also offer a comprehensive array of products for rodents.More…
