PET FOOD PROCESSING | March 2020 | www.petfoodprocessing.net

However, Heath notes there are
a host of challenges with these concepts, including reliability, expectations for response time, auditor
buy-in, expense and overall value.
"Most pet food processors these
days should have barcode pest management software that facilitates
comprehensive pest monitoring, deficiency and corrective action tracking, and trend reporting," he says.
"Remote reporting for rodents on
top of this is a very costly duplication, and the labor to combine data
from two programs into the single
report most companies want is tremendous. So, remote reporting, in
my opinion, is not quite ready for
primetime play in food processing, but there could be lots of nonfood facilities where it could have
immediate value."
Jordan says technological advancements in the form of game/trail
cameras and IoT-enabled devices
are being embraced and shifting the
mindset for how some accounts, or
areas within accounts, are monitored
and serviced.
"Rodents are the most challenging
pests we encounter because of their
intelligence, secretive nature and
shifting social dynamics, and remote
sensing devices can alert us to problems before any other evidence is detected and even provide time-stamps
to let us know exactly when activity
occurred," he says. "This information
can be used to eliminate the rodent
problem, but in some cases also pinpoint other issues like open doors
that allowed the rodent to enter."
Copesan's greatest success so far
has been using game cameras and
other IoT enabled devices above
false ceilings and at other high-up
places within accounts with known
or suspected rodent activity. "We
have been able to detect problems
