The main challenge is the manual and inefficient process of monitoring rodent traps to detect and control rat populations. The current method involves physically visiting each trapping station, which in a city like Wrocław can number up to 7,500. This labor-intensive approach leads to excessive costs, wasted resources, and ineffective pest control efforts.
The system significantly reduces the time spent on servicing traps by 70-95%. It autonomously manages various aspects, including trapping, baiting, consumption, infestation, and cleanliness. Moreover, it is designed to allow a single person to monitor a large number of traps in real-time, increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of pest control.
By automating rodent control and providing a tool to monitor pest activity, the application enables effective and efficient rat problem management in urban areas, reducing costs, diseases, and environmental hazards.
