Abstract: An animal control system for use in a plant to facilitate management of the trapping of animals in the plant, the system including: a plurality of animal traps located at discrete locations of the plant, each trap including an animal sensor associated with the trap for detecting an animal trapped in the trap and a transceiver in electronic communication with the animal sensor, the transceiver having an identifier unique to the trap with which it is associated; and a computer system having a plurality of computers in communication with one another for receiving and reporting information relating to conditions of the traps. The discrete locations of the traps are obtained and input into a computer processor for processing to yield a computer generated template of the plant having a template of the plant with the discrete locations of the traps.

Abstract: A pest control bait station having separated bait reservoirs for holding different kinds of bait. The bait station has raised regions with pest access apertures. Each aperture is aligned with at least a portion of a pest conveyance structure extending from the base walls of the reservoirs, providing a space for the pest to enter and exit the bait station. The bait in each reservoir is prevented from contacting bait in any other reservoir. At least one reservoir may contain a liquid bait, and at least one reservoir may contain a dry bait.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for treating a contaminated surface. According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, the method preferably includes a first step of providing a cleaning composition which includes from about 0.002 to about 2 percent, by weight, of a cationic surfactant which is capable of acting as a microbial biocide and from about 0.05 to about 5 percent, by weight, of a boron-containing component which is capable of acting as both a microbial biostat and an insecticide. This cleaning composition is applied to the surface so as to substantially remove contaminants from the surface while, leaving a residual amount of the cleaning composition on the surface to act as a biostat.

Abstract: Weather resistant granular baits containing an attractant system are disclosed. Methods of making and using the baits are also disclosed.
