KNOW HOW, WHEN & WHERE RODENTS ARE TRAVELING What if you knew every rodent activity at your account – from the moment you walk in the door? IQ™ technology will transform your technicians from inspectors into problem solvers, fixing issues at accounts faster and smarter. TAKE THE GUESSWORK OUT OF YOUR SERVICE Once IQ™ products are activated, rodent activity will appear on the App when technician arrives at an account and is in range of a device. From a distance, PMP’s will be able to get information from IQ™ equipped devices and will immediately know which ones have had activity and which areas are the hot spots of the account. Instantly knowing the number of events will provide a PMP with real information that will allow rodent control measures to be deployed where they will matter most.
