Insect Gate

Early warning, without the inspection.

Insect Gate is a discreet floor monitor for crawling insects. A species-specific lure draws them in, four optical gates count each entry, and the number reaches your phone or your building console. Nothing to lift, read or open.

One housing. Four target insects.

The housing, gates and radio are shared. The lure, firmware profile and colour change with the target species.

Discreet by design.

To a guest, a visitor or an auditor it reads as a fixture. To your technician it is a monitor that never needs a visual check.

No markings

Nothing printed on it

The housing carries no logo, text or label. Colour identifies the line to your technician. To anyone else it is a plain, low box.

No inspection

Read remotely, never opened

Counts, lure health and battery are read over Bluetooth or on the console. There is no glue board to examine and no lid to lift, so units stay in place for the full lure year.

Low profile

Matched to the room

Flush to the floor and available in white for guest rooms and gold for galleries, where the unit should not be noticed at all.

Detect. Count. Report.

Crawling insects do not fly into a trap. They walk in, the way they walk into a crack in the skirting. Everything after that is measurement.

01

The lure draws them in

A sealed cartridge in the lid releases a species-specific attractant for twelve months. Bed bugs, beetles, cockroaches and silverfish each have their own formulation.

02

The gates count them

Each corner is an entry channel with an infrared gate across it. An insect breaks the beam, the firmware filters the event, and the count increases by one.

03

The radio reports

Bluetooth for the technician on site. LoRaWAN for the hotel, mill or housing block that cannot visit every room every day.

Read the full walkthrough

Every unit. Every room. One view.

The console lists each unit by room, with its species colour, the count since it was last cleared, and the lure health as a percentage. A room at zero needs no visit. A room that rose overnight does, and when it spreads to a neighbour the app shows the spread as a spread.

Alerts are limited to what changes a decision: first activity after a quiet period, a count above your threshold, lure health low, battery low, unit silent.

Why the count can be trusted.

A number is only useful if it is the same number a technician would have found. These are the things that make it so.

One crawl, one count

Beam breaks are debounced in firmware so a lingering antenna does not become ten insects. Per-corner diagnostics are available when a count looks wrong.

Timestamped and exportable

Every event carries a time. The console exports counts as CSV, so the record lives in your file, not ours.

Health, not silence

Units report battery and gate health with every uplink. A quiet room and a dead unit look different on the console.

Counts survive outages

If the gateway is down, counts are held in local memory and sent when it returns. Nothing is lost to a network fault.

Species-specific lures

Each cartridge is formulated for one target group from the chemical cues those insects use to find one another. A bed bug count is bed bugs.

Glue boards alongside

Every pilot keeps the existing cards in place for the full period, so the count is checked against the method you already trust.
