24/7 Digital pest management and monitoring with PestConnect

PestConnect installations are tailored to your business. A service technician conducts a site survey, assesses pest risks, and develops a customised IPM solution. The PestConnect system is installed, and your account is created on our customer portal, myRentokil. Our technicians provide a five-step integrated pest management cycle, continuously optimising pest control while monitoring your site 24/7 using PestConnect devices.

When a rat or mouse is captured, an alert is sent to the Rentokil server and your local service technician for a swift response. Upon notification, your service technician will contact you to schedule a visit based on your contract. All service activity is recorded in the myRentokil customer portal, enabling you to identify risks, access reports, analyse trends, and gain pest insights.

To ensure continued protection for your business, your service technician will remove pests from the devices, inspect the area for entry points, and recommend follow-up preventive measures.

No, PestConnect won’t use or affect your company’s Wi-Fi or internet connection. The system works independently without disrupting your business’s internet connection, hardware or machinery, using a wireless communications system onsite and mobile communications to connect to our servers.

PestConnect champions sustainability in pest control by minimising reliance on traditional chemical methods. Our targeted interventions, guided by precise monitoring and data-drive insights, allow for a proactive approach that prevents infestations before they escalate. This significantly reduces the need for broad-spectrum chemical treatments. Furthermore, solutions like RADAR (bait-free rodent control) and Dual AutoGate (delayed access to toxic bait) actively contribute to a safer environment for both humans and non-target wildlife. 

By embracing an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) philosophy and emphasising proofing and prevention, PestConnect fosters a more effective and sustainable approach to pest control, promoting long-term ecological balance.

The installation of PestConnect is straightforward; however, the exact duration can vary depending on the size and complexity of your premises. In general, a service technician will conduct a full site survey to assess pest risks and develop a customised IPM solution. They will then proceed to install the PestConnect system and set up your account on the customer portal, myRentokil. While the specific timeframe can vary, the installation process is designed to be efficient and minimise disruption to your business operations.

PestConnect utilises specialised connected devices to monitor and capture pests. The specific devices employed may vary based on the requirements of your premises and the type of rodent targeted. Commonly used devices include:

1. Rodent traps: These traps are equipped with sensors to detect and capture rats or mice.
2. Monitoring stations: These stations contain sensors that detect pest activity or entry.

The number of connected devices needed depends on the size of your premises, the level of pest activity, and the areas requiring monitoring. During the site survey, a service technician will assess your needs and determine the appropriate number and placement of devices to ensure comprehensive coverage. The goal is to strategically position the devices to effectively monitor and control pest activity throughout your premises.
