Background of introduction: Vermin control in general dwellings
Previously, pest control measures in general residences involved using always-on cameras that required a power supply, limiting their use to locations with available electricity.
In locations lacking power, such as attics and vacant houses, the company had to rely on periodic site visits (every 2 weeks to 1 month) for visual inspections of entry points and footprints. This process was time-consuming, labor-intensive, and made it difficult to accurately assess the situation.
Furthermore, in occupied homes, extermination efforts were sometimes only initiated after receiving reports of pest noises from residents.
To address these challenges, Kuroshio Shodoku decided to implement Pescle Rodents, which requires no external power and is easy to install.
Introduction effect: More efficient damage control measures.
Near Real-Time Monitoring: Enabled near real-time monitoring, allowing for an accurate understanding of pest activity.
Pescle's monitoring has proven particularly effective in vacant houses, where detecting signs of pests can be challenging.
This facilitates early detection of infestations and the implementation of appropriate countermeasures, leading to more efficient pest management.
*Ease of Installation and Cost Reduction : Since Pescle Rodents requires no power and is easy to set up, it can be readily installed in locations where traditional cameras were difficult to deploy, such as vacant houses and mountainous areas. This has led to significant reductions in both installation and maintenance costs.
*Rapid Response through Early Detection : Real-time awareness of pest activity allows for swift extermination responses, significantly boosting customer trust compared to the previous method of waiting for resident reports
*Time and Labor Savings : The need for frequent on-site inspections has decreased, contributing significantly to time and labor savings. By drastically reducing the time spent on site investigations, staff can now handle other tasks more smoothly.
*Improved Customer Satisfaction through Data : Providing data to confirm the absence of pests after extermination reassures customers and enhances their satisfaction.
Current Utilization and Future Prospects
Currently, Kuroshio Disinfection Co., Ltd. uses Pescle Rodents in conjunction with traditional always-on cameras, leveraging the strengths of each device to create an efficient monitoring system.
Pescle Rodents, capitalizing on its power-free advantage, is primarily used for monitoring in locations where power access is difficult, such as vacant houses and attics.
Conversely, always-on cameras are used in powered locations for more detailed behavioral observation and evidence gathering.
Looking ahead, Kuroshio Shodoku hopes for enhancements such as longer recording times, extended battery life, improved motion sensor accuracy, and a better user interface for the web management screen. They anticipate that addressing these points will allow Pescle Rodents to be utilized in a broader range of environments, further streamlining pest control operations.
From the Pescle Team
Based on the feedback from Kuroshio Shodoku, the Pescle team is committed to further enhancing the functionality of Pescle Rodents and addressing current challenges.
We will strive to develop products that meet customer needs, evolving Pescle Rodents into an even more effective and efficient pest control system.
