CHRISTMAS TRADING |
The Pest IT office will remain operational during the Christmas break. Our warehouse also remains open during the Christmas break (except public holidays), therefore we can assist with product supply. Feel free to call on 1300 66 56 57 if you run into trouble. However, we would suggest that your orders be placed as early as possible to avoid the Christmas rush.
Again, we wish to thank you for your support throughout the year and hope that 2007 is a mutually successful and happy year for all!

NEW PRODUCT DEVELOPMENTS |

One nights catch with a standard (non-gas) unit |
Our latest development for Summer is the release of Mosquito Slayer. Mosquito Slayer is an Australian innovation, now sold in over 65 countries around the world. This unique, effective and environmentally friendly system is the shining light of the mosquito trapping arena. Mosquito Slayer is designed to attract and trap the female mosquito, which makes up over 90% of the trap’s catch. This is important as it is the female mosquito that bites and spreads disease and suffering world-wide. Mosquito Slayer controls nuisance and disease carrying mosquitoes as well as biting midges, and is well suited to both domestic and commercial situations.
Vector management is a growing, profitable market for pest managers to consider. If you are concerned about overuse of insecticides in the outdoor domestic and commercial area, you can be sure your clients are as well. Protecting your clients “lifestyle area” from nuisance, disease carrying biting mosquitoes is a valuable service.
Throughout Australia there are locations where homeowners cannot use their yards due to the mosquito menace. You can help your domestic clients reclaim their yard – efficiently, safely and environmentally. In commercial situations such as resorts, alfresco dining areas, golf courses, mine sites and numerous other public areas, Mosquito Slayer can help reduce the liability of property owners and help maintain their duty of care for protecting people under their management.
Pest IT Pty. Ltd. is the Australian agent for Mosquito Slayer and we would be happy to support your marketing and sales program with technical information, brochures and training.

MOTH ISSUES SOLVED |
We regularly receive photos from clients of successful uses of our various products. Below are images of the Ephestia/Plodia lure in the Demi-Diamond trapping system. With the onset of warmer weather, stored product and textile moths wreak havoc in domestic pantries and wallrobes, as well as commercial food services and production facilities. Infused in the glue matrix, the pheromone offers a slow-release attractant to 7 species of moth in the ephestia/plodia group. At just a few dollars per trap, it is most cost effective as well.

Code: AFDDTRAP(50 traps) & AFD100EPH (100 pheromone glueboards)

LOW MERCURY AND LEAD FREE TUBES |
How much lead and mercury do your UV lamps contain? Are you disposing of these correctly and safely? Here is an interesting message from PestWest:
Quantum BL UV tubes are 100% more effective and 40% more powerful than standard UV tubes. Where other inferior tubes have long since failed, Quantum BL will maintain their high-power output to the end of their working life. These tubes are now used in all PestWest® professional equipment.
The European Unions’ new Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive (RoHS) restricts the use of 6 key substances. Two of those substances are Mercury and Lead, both of which would normally be used in the manufacture of UV tubes.
The manufacturing process used to make a Quantum BL UV tube uses a different phosphor-mix than the one used to make other UV tubes. This unique mix does not require the hazardous material Lead to improve its performance. That coupled to other constructional techniques results in the Quantum BL UV tube being totally lead-free. The Quantum BL lamp also contain reduced quantities of mercury.

NOAH'S TOOL TIME IS BACK! |
After many months, a 2nd birthday and numerous requests I am back with a few helpful tips to pass on to assist your bird installations.
New “Black” Beam Clips – As you know, when I am on the job I use our trusty Ramset Cablemaster to attach intermediate fittings to beams, RSJ’s and C-channels. But, if you use Beam Clips when installing StealthNet, you will be interested in the new “Black” Beam Clips from Bird Barrier. The darker colour will ensure a discrete attachment to beams. So apart from being quick to install, your job will look great as well.
Code: ni-gc30
Bird Shock Flex-Track – Introducing the new Corner Connections and Quick Connectors from Bird Barrier. These units have a new design and UV stable construction ideal for Australia’s harsh UV intensity. The new connections are fast and easy to install and will save you valuable time on the job.
Code: bs-q00 Quick Connector (25 corner)
bs-q01 Quick Tap Connector (30)
I hope this helps – all the best for a great Christmas and see you next year. |
