The Trapmate InsectaVision, developed through a strategic partnership between Skyhawk Trapmate and Insects Limited, represents a major step forward in how pest management professionals (PMPs) monitor and manage insect activity. This next-generation, vision-based device leverages the strengths of both organizations: Trapmate’s reliable wireless Internet of Things (IoT) monitoring platform and Insects Limited’s decades of research and expertise in pheromone-based insect behavior. Together, these capabilities create a monitoring system that dramatically improves accuracy, efficiency and responsiveness in insect management programs.
At its core, InsectaVision is a smart imaging device engineered to automatically capture, upload and analyze high-quality images of insects within a facility. Rather than relying solely on manual inspections — an approach that can be time-consuming, inconsistent and vulnerable to human error — InsectaVision brings automation and precision to the forefront. Technicians receive a clear stream of visual data that allows them to understand what is happening, without being physically present at every location. Over time, this creates a detailed picture of insect patterns, trap performance and emerging risk areas.
What truly sets InsectaVision apart is how seamlessly it integrates into the Skyhawk Trapmate remote monitoring ecosystem. Each device communicates wirelessly with the platform, enabling technicians and managers to access images and activity insights from anywhere. This level of connectivity ensures there are no delays in obtaining information, and teams can respond faster when activity increases or when a potential threat is detected. Instead of waiting days or weeks for a technician to visit a trap in person, InsectaVision provides continuous awareness, allowing users to shift from a reactive approach to a proactive, data-driven strategy.
The collaboration with Insects Limited enhances the system even further. Their deep understanding of pheromones, insect biology, and species behavior contributes to more effective monitoring and interpretation. The result is a device that not only captures images but also supports more meaningful analysis — helping PMPs better understand what species they’re dealing with, how populations are shifting and where intervention is needed. This is especially valuable in industries where precision and early detection are critical, such as food processing, warehousing, manufacturing, pharmaceuticals and supply chain environments.
By automating the image capture and reporting process, InsectaVision significantly reduces unnecessary site visits. Traditionally, technicians spend large portions of their time traveling to inspect traps that often have little or no activity. While necessary for compliance, these routine checks can create inefficiencies in labor use and increase operational costs. With InsectaVision in place, technicians can focus their efforts on locations that actually require attention. Alerts and image data guide their decisions, leading to faster, more targeted responses. This high-value use of technician time not only streamlines operations but also enhances service quality for clients.
In addition to improving efficiency, the accuracy and consistency of the data collected by InsectaVision strengthen program documentation and reporting. High-quality images provide objective, verifiable records that can be used for audits, customer communication, and compliance documentation. Because images are transmitted directly to the Trapmate platform, there is no risk of missing or incomplete data. Everything is time-stamped, stored and accessible when needed — providing a transparent record of activity and technician response.
Ultimately, InsectaVision transforms traditional insect monitoring into an intelligent, automated process that aligns with the future of pest management. It supports a more predictive approach to risk, helping teams identify trends early, prevent costly infestations, and safeguard valuable goods. Whether deployed in a single facility or across a large, multi-site operation, it gives pest management professionals the power to operate with greater precision, confidence, and efficiency.
As the industry continues evolving toward remote monitoring and smarter technology, InsectaVision stands as an innovative tool that bridges expertise, data, and real-world performance. By combining Trapmate’s proven monitoring platform with Insects Limited’s scientific foundation, it delivers a comprehensive solution that enhances visibility, reduces labor costs, and elevates the overall quality of insect management programs.
