Non-chemical alternatives in rodent control (NoCheRo)
In February 2020 the European Commission and the Federal Environment Agency organised the 2nd workshop on NoCheRo. At the workshop a draft guideline for testing the efficacy and animal welfare of rodent traps was presented. Overall the guideline received positive feedback. It was agreed that an objective evaluation of traps is necessary to improve animal welfare, identify inefficient traps and collect data for comparative assessment.
NoCheRo is considered the new standard throughout the EU and Futura Germany is actively fighting for less rodenticides to be used in pest control. Digital traps are the future!
Behr's cooperation
Together with Behr's Verlag, we regularly publish articles, newsletters and lectures on the subject of "Digital Pest Control".
Daniel Schröer, Managing Director of Futura, for example, wrote an article in cooperation with Behr's Verlag for the pest control handbook in which he explains what is behind the eMitter and NARA brands, how they are used, the effects of poisons on the environment and how to reduce the use of baits. Thereby Schröer focuses on the digital product portfolio.
