Battling rat infestation at airports

The global pandemic has brought the entire world to a standstill. Humans as well as animals are finding it difficult to survive.

One such animal which has probably got more aggressive since his food supply has suddenly reduced and disappeared is the rodent.

Rodents have two pairs of continuously growing incisors which must be kept sharp by gnawing. So just like we clip our fingernails, a rat gnaws on things in order to keep its teeth in check. Overgrown teeth are a possible problem for them. They like any surface that they can gnaw on, let the surface be metal, polymer, concrete, wood, etc. 

Since the flights have been cancelled and there is minimum or negligible human activity at the airports, the airport shops and restaurants have been invaded by these furry rodents.

Ratatouille 2? Mice Spotted In Paris Airport Restaurant

Simple Flying – Joanna Bailey | 24 June 2020

Some furry fiends have been spotted clambering over pizza and quiche, reportedly in a restaurant at Paris Charles de Gaulle airport. The footage, shared on the 11th June, identifies two of the rodent rascals inside a food case at one of the airport’s cafes.

Since these places have been closed for a long time now, we need to take appropriate measures inorder o avoid the damages. What effective measures can be implemented to avoid this menace?

Rodrepel™ is a product manufactured by C Tech Corporation which is an extremely low toxicity and extremely low hazard, and environmentally safe anti-rodent additive specially developed for a range of polymeric and coating applications including films, wires, and cables, etc. It is also effective in case the target species are other animals.

The wires and cables used in the airplanes for radar, communication, control, signaling, data transmission, lighting, surveillance, etc. can be incorporated with Rodrepel™ masterbatch to prevent them from pest attack and ultimately avoid any signaling loss, communication disruption or fire hazard. Different types of polymeric seats can be manufactured by incorporating our masterbatch in them.

Rodrepel™ is also available in lacquer and liquid concentrate form and can be easily coated onto an application to repel the rodents.

The liquid concentrate can be blended with paints and applied to the interior and exterior of the airplanes to prevent the entry of pests in them. The liquid concentrate can be applied to the interior and exterior of the airports and the offices. The storage areas from the airports can be coated with our liquid concentrate to keep those places safe from pest menace. The liquid concentrate can be used in accommodation areas of pilots and crew members. The liquid concentrate is compatible with all types of paints and it dries off easily.

The lacquer can be applied to already installed wires and cables, utility pipes, polymeric and metallic racks, pallets. The already installed arrestor cables can be coated using our Rodrepel™ lacquer which will prevent the rodents from chewing them. The lacquer can be applied to metallic components from the equipment. The lacquer is an easy application that is compatible with most of the surfaces like wood, concrete, polymer, ceramics, concrete, etc.

We have developed our product in the form of a spray, the RodrepelTM rodent repellent spray which is an easy to use product. The product can be sprayed on components from airplanes, offices, kitchen and canteen areas, storage areas, food carts, trolley cars, etc. after clearing the dust and waste from components. It can be sprayed on the wires and cables, seat cushions, doors, and windows of airplanes. It can be sprayed on infested areas and entry points. The product when applied properly repels the pests and protects the components from damage. The expensive components can thus be protected, and unnecessary maintenance cost spent on replacement of the parts damaged by pests can be saved. The product does not cause any harmful effect on human health, non-target species or even target species. The product is safe for the environment.

Winter is coming…and so are the rats.!!  

One often plans a lot while buying a home. Investing your entire savings into your dream home! But some tiny creatures can cause huge damage to the structures freaking you out.

Have you experienced strange rustlings in the night? A number of people are waking to the frightening sound of rats and mice scratching around their homes.

At this time of year, when cold weather forces rats and mice indoors to nest and hunt for food, infestations can multiple, with rodents spreading disease as well as causing damage by chewing through wiring, pipes and brickwork.

They’re dirty. They bite. They are carriers of diseases, bacteria and parasites. They infest human spaces, cause damage, contaminate food, set up home where they’re not wanted (everywhere) and businesses are forced to spend money on robust pest control measures to keep their numbers under control.

These are the rodents trying to get into your home this fall

When temperatures start to cool in the fall that’s the time some of Maine’s most common rodents start looking for places to overwinter. And for a rodent looking to get in out of the cold, your house is every bit as attractive as a den in an old tree or under a rock pile. Maybe even moreso.

RAT ATTACK 
Super rats up to 20 inches long are invading British homes via toilets and drainpipes – is YOUR house at risk?
  • Dan Hall
  • 15 October 2019

THEY say you’re never more than six feet away from a rat — but if you have plastic drainpipes in your home, you’re probably even closer.

Pest controllers are warning that millions of super-size disease-ridden rodents are scurrying into houses after gnawing through plastic drainpipes as temperatures plummet.

While traditionally drainpipes were made from cast iron, most modern drainpipes are plastic and pest control experts are warning that rats with razor sharp teeth can chew through them.

Although they normally live underground, rats go in search of food and warmth at this time of year – and houses across the UK are at risk of invasion as we face the coldest winter in 30 years.

Massive increase in rats this year

Peter Higgs, who runs PGH Pest Control in Surrey, says he’s seen a massive increases in the numbers of rats he’s found inside UK homes over the past few weeks – and says they can get into houses via holes as small as half an inch.

Horrifyingly, they can also get in through toilets via the sewage system – though this is rare.

“British homes are the perfect hunting ground for rats and we’ve noticed a massive, massive increase in the amount of them,” he tells us.

“Most carry Weil’s disease – which can be deadly to humans, so it’s very important to protect your home by cramming holes with filler and wire brushes where possible.

UK rat INVASION: 120 million rodents heading straight for Brit HOMES this winter

BRITAIN’S 120million-strong rat population is on the move and heading straight for our homes.

GNAW BLIMEY: Rats are seeking shelter from the cold in people’s homes

The disease-ridden vermin are seeking shelter as the cold winter months set in.

Pest control boss Paul Bates says the critters are on the hunt for somewhere “warm and cosy” to build nests.

Call-outs are set to rise by 40% in coming weeks.

The rodent invasion is set to cause millions of pounds worth of damage as they spark fires by gnawing through electric cables and beams.

A “double whammy” of conditions caused by the recent heatwave made rats even more likely to head for our homes, said Paul, of Cleankill Pest Control.

He claimed the scorching heat caused more of them to come out of hiding looking for water.

The expert warned Brits to “act now” and shore up homes as a blast of Arctic air threatens to send temperatures plummeting.

A Cleankill spokesman said: “At a time when we feel like bolting our doors and keeping the cold out, it’s not surprising mice and rats try to join us.”

Since these rodents are very common most of the people tend to get rid of them by using do it yourself methods like spray, traps, chemicals, ultrasonic repellers, etc. but are they really effective and harmless to humans? Moreover, you can see that the number of rodents invading our homes is increasing each year.

Mechanical traps stop working once a mechanical error occurs. The ultrasonic repeller works only when you have a power supply nearby. The commonly used pest repellents contain diethyltoluamide which is harmful to humans and pests. Glue boards and rat baits are more dangerous because there are cases where people have accidentally stuck to them.

So what can be a novel approach towards these rodent infestations?

We, at C Tech Corporation, manufacture a range of extremely low toxicity, extremely low hazard, and environment-friendly pest repellent products.

Our products are a blend of green chemistry and smart technology.

Our product Rodrepel™ is an extremely low toxic, low hazard rodent aversive. This product acts through a series of a highly developed intricate mechanism ensuring that rodents are kept away from the target application. Our eco-friendly products do not kill the target species but only repel them.

The product triggers a fear response in rodents thus protecting the application. It causes severe temporary distress to the mucous membrane of the rodents due to which the pest stays away from the application. The product triggers an unpleasant reaction in case if the pest tries to gnaw away the application. After encountering the above-mentioned emotions, the animal instinctively perceives it as something it should stay away from and stores this information for future reference. The fact that certain rodents are repelled is mimicked by other rodents as well. Thus, the other rodents too stay away from the applications. The unpleasant experience is imprinted within the animal’s memory and passed on to its progeny.

The products are available in the form of a solid masterbatch, liquid concentrate, lacquer, and wood polish additive.

The products are available in the form of a solid masterbatch, liquid concentrate, lacquer, and wood polish additive.

The product available in the form of solid masterbatch can be incorporated into polymeric applications like wires and cables, pipes, etc. Thereby making the end application rodent resistant.

The product available in the form of liquid concentrate can be diluted in paints and can be applied over the interior and exterior of the house, garages, etc. The liquid concentrate is compatible with all kinds of paints and solvents.

The already installed cables, pipes, and other applications can be coated with our lacquer to protect them from the rodents gnawing on this application and thus preventing the damage. The lacquer is a transparent product and it does not wear off easily.

The wood polish additive can be blended with wood polish and applied on the wooden articles and furniture.

Our newly developed product is in the form of a spray which is easy to use product. It can be sprayed on the infested area to repel the rodents and prevent them from entering the premises.

By using our products, you can get an effective and long-lasting solution against rodent nuisance.
