Dedicated, controlled spaces designed for in-depth research on bed bugs and other hematophagous (blood-feeding) pests, facilitating a deeper understanding of their behaviours and life cycles to innovate effective control methods.
Specialised research chambers where flies are released to evaluate the application and efficacy of fly control solutions in development, ensuring that new methods are effective and efficient in managing and reducing fly populations.
Custom-designed enclosures where rats and mice behaviours are closely observed, aiding the in the design and refinement of advanced detection tools to ensure efficient and humane rodent management solutions.
Practical evaluations are conducted in real-world settings to assess the viability and effectiveness of new innovations, ensuring they meet regulatory standards and offer optimal solutions in diverse, everyday conditions.
Our dedicated team, featuring PhD scientists specialising in areas such as zoology and entomology, work to develop and refine pest control solutions. Be it digital pest control or sustainable methods, we are continuously advancing to serve homes and businesses better.
We are researching nature-inspired solutions to provide customers with effective, chemical-free biopesticides. Our advanced approach targets resilient pests like cockroaches using innovative techniques involving harmless fungal spores. These spores attach to the cockroach’s shell, germinate, and act swiftly without causing unnecessary pain, developing higher levels of efficacy that are kinder to our planet.
Our non-toxic heat treatments harness advanced technology and are designed to safely eliminate pests by disrupting their vital processes. These treatments wipe out insects at every life stage and prevent pests from building resistance, as is common with chemical methods.
