Emerging Trends and Technologies in the Pest Control Industry
It’s a brave new world. In the past three years alone, innovations in machine learning, autonomous vehicles, and manufacturing have all dramatically changed the commercial landscape, even if there are a few bugs along the way.
These new technologies have also started to impact the pest control industry. Between the introduction of new smart monitoring devices and advanced integrated deterrent methods, new cutting-edge approaches to pest control are developing at this very moment. We’ll take a closer look at some of the latest and greatest innovations in advanced pest management that the best pest companies use to protect your property.
Best Tools for Pest Management in 2025
Accel Pest and Termite Control is continually developing new pest control strategies and adopting the best modern pest control technology to allow us to reach even the most difficult infestations with security, efficiency, and lasting effectiveness.
Internet of Things Pest Control Solutions
Many modern devices, like your smart speaker, TV, and phone, can now share information with each other as part of a system commonly known as the Internet of Things. Many IoT devices don’t need to be connected to the public internet to work, and that level of flexibility opens up a lot of potential in pest control applications.
For example, 4G sensors can detect rodent infestations before they’re established by monitoring potential entry points. Plus, modern smart traps reduce the need for frequent inspections by identifying and targeting specific pests with internal sensors, helping us identify issues earlier and with fewer routine checks than before.
Using Drones for Airborne Pest Control
Drone technology has existed in the consumer market for over ten years, but the landscape continues to change. We’re beginning to reach a point in price and availability where affordable drones of reliable build quality and highly capable cameras enter the pest control sphere.
They are particularly useful in large-scale applications. Drones often release beneficial insects from the air, such as ladybugs, lacewings, and parasitic wasps, which prey on common pests like aphids and mice.
They are also valuable for applying traditional insecticides and detecting pests in hard-to-reach areas. Identifying pests in hard-to-reach areas, particularly in elevated or hazardous situations such as removing wasp nests and bee hives, is advantageous. It’s all part of an ongoing effort to make pest control safer for you, your family, and the expert technicians we provide.
Ultrasonic Pest Control Methods
Forms of ultrasonic pest control have been used in the industry for several decades, but a rise in more affordable products has helped boost their popularity. Ultrasonic pest control works by emitting sound waves at frequencies that are disruptive to pests like rodents, birds, and even insects, and is not audible to humans.
Highly effective when placed near potential entry points on your property, these small, wireless devices can disrupt the nesting habits and deter any curious insects. They’re a simple, chemical-free solution to managing infestations, and one of many new tools we have in our belt to help keep your property secure.
