Q: What is Anticimex SMART? 

A: Anticimex SMART consists of the Smart Eye, Smart Catch, Smart Box, Smart Pipe, and Smart Connect, all exchanging information with each other and back to Viking’s central office. The devices determine where the rodent pressure exists, enabling the Smart Catches and Smart Boxes to be moved to critical locations as hot spots of activity located and tracked. When a catch is detected, Viking’s professionals will be notified, and we will make arrangements to come out to empty the traps and relocate the equipment as necessary. As a Viking client, our team handles rodent concerns so you can focus on your business! 

 

Q: How Does Anticimex SMART Work? 

A: The Anticimex SMART system works by using infrared sensors to detect and track rodent activity giving the Viking team valuable insight to control rodent populations at your facility.  Using data instead of poison our SMART product is the most effective and eco-friendly form of rodent control.  The SMART family of products connect with each other on an external shared network allowing for 24/7 monitoring with data reported to Viking’s central office.  Using the collected data, the Viking team is able to access and re-evaluate placement of traps to optimize your rodent control.

Q: How is Anticimex SMART Different from Traditional Rodent Control? 

A:  

Limitations of a Traditional Pest Control System: 

  • Monitoring system requires physical readings - which have the potential to be missed 
  • Information is not provided when an activity has occurred 
  • Impossible to tell the true number of pests and how often they appear – can only judge by physical captures or how much bait is consumed. 
  • No focus on sewers 
  • Often relies on toxic pesticides 

SMART Pest Control Offers the Following: 

  • Actively sends information even when there is no activity 
  • Sends date and time information when there is activity 
  • Unique trap for sewers 
  • Non-toxic 

Q: Where are the Anticimex SMART Traps Placed in my Facility? 

A: The Anticimex SMART traps are placed in areas of your facility where your Viking specialist determines as high rodent pressure areas. Every facility is different, so our team optimizes the placement based on your site.  The location of the devices may change over time based on the data received from the sensors, with decisions made based on data, not intuition. 

 

Q: How Does Anticimex SMART Monitor 24/7? 

A: Anticimex SMART is a battery-powered digital system, apart from the Connect Classic which requires a plug. Depending on where the SMART equipment is setup it can be set to monitor 24/7 or on a set schedule.  In areas where the sensor may pickup on employee, or customer, traffic the system will be set to monitor only during certain hours of the day to ensure the appropriate data is received. 

 

Q: What is the Battery Lifespan of the Anticimex SMART System? 

A: The system comes equipped with a 1- year battery life. Our team will replace the batteries of your SMART device annually.  

 

Q: Can Anticimex SMART be Added to my Current Viking Pest Service Agreement? 

A: Of Course! Anticimex SMART can be added to any Viking Service Agreement. Call us today at 1-800-618-2847 for pricing. 

 

Q: How do the Digital Alerts from Anticimex SMART Work? 

A: When the Smart sensor detects movement, activity within the trap, or if a rodent is caught within the Smart device, a daily, or hourly, digital alert is sent directly to your Viking Technician. When your Viking Technician receives the alert, s/he will be able to respond to any urgent needs or plan a service visit to empty and possibly relocate traps.
