SenesTech Maps Out Plan For Increased Use Of ContraPest In Integrated Pest Management In California
PHOENIX, Sept. 30, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- SenesTech, Inc. (NASDAQ:SNES), a developer of proprietary technologies for managing animal pest populations through fertility control, today confirmed that California's AB1788 has been signed by Gavin Newsom, California's Governor and will become law January 1, 2021. The California Ecosystems Protection Act of 2020 (the Bill) will prohibit the use of the four major Second Generation Anticoagulant Rodenticides (SGARs) commonly used in rodent pest control under many circumstances. SenesTech's ContraPest, an alternative and complementary non-lethal approach to managing rodents through fertility control, has been proven in the field to be an effective and sustainable component of integrated pest management (IPM), and may be increasingly used to replace the SGARs.
凤凰城，2020 年 9 月 30 日 /PRNewswire/ — SenesTech, Inc.（纳斯达克：SNES）是一家通过生育控制管理动物害虫种群的专有技术的开发商，今天证实，加利福尼亚州的 AB1788 已由加利福尼亚州州长加文·纽瑟姆签署，并将于 2021 年 1 月 1 日成为法律。2020年《加州生态系统保护法》（以下简称 “法案”）将禁止使用在许多情况下常用于啮齿类害虫防治的四种主要的第二代抗凝灭鼠剂（SGAR）。SenesTech的ContraPest是一种通过生育控制来管理啮齿类动物的替代和补充性非致命方法，已被该领域证明是综合害虫管理（IPM）的有效和可持续的组成部分，并且可能越来越多地用于取代SGAR。
While the Bill is intended to address the vulnerability of wildlife to the lethality and environmental persistence of these SGARs used for rodent control, it also creates a challenge to pest management professionals (PMPs) who incorporate SGARs in their integrated pest management (IPM) programs. Absent the use of these SGARs, pest management will have to rely on other lethal and non-lethal tools, such as ContraPest's fertility control. In testimony previously, it was estimated that the current use of rodenticides, these SGARs being a large share, in the state was worth approximately $100 million of product per year.
尽管该法案旨在解决野生动物对这些用于啮齿动物控制的SGAR的杀伤力和环境持久性的脆弱性，但它也给将SGAR纳入综合害虫管理（IPM）计划的害虫管理专业人员（PMP）带来了挑战。如果不使用这些SGAR，害虫管理将不得不依赖其他致命和非致命工具，例如ContraPest的生育力控制。在先前的证词中，据估计，该州目前使用的灭鼠剂（这些SGAR占很大比例）每年价值约1亿美元。
"ContraPest® can help fill the gap in integrated pest management (IPM). In extensive field studies, ContraPest has been shown to reduce rodent populations 60% to 90% beyond conventional means alone. As PMPs adapt their protocols and practices to the Bill, we will work with PMPs to best incorporate ContraPest as they eliminate or limit the use of the now-prohibited SGARs," said Kenneth Siegel, SenesTech's CEO. "We believe that the PMPs will also see that ContraPest can be economically and practically beneficial to their entire practice, not just that affected by the Bill."
“ContraPest® 可以帮助填补综合害虫管理（IPM）方面的空白。在广泛的实地研究中，ContraPest已被证明比单靠常规手段可以减少60％至90％的啮齿类动物种群。随着PMP根据该法案调整协议和做法，我们将与PMP合作，以最佳方式纳入Contrapest，因为他们取消或限制了现已禁止的SGAR的使用。” SenesTech首席执行官肯尼思·西格尔说。“我们相信，PMP还将看到，Contrapest可以为他们的整个业务带来经济和实践上的好处，而不仅仅是受该法案影响的业务。”
"We have been building, and are now launching, a multi-pronged initiative to drive adoption of ContraPest in California," added Dr. Steven Krause, SenesTech's EVP of Sales and Marketing. "One, we plan to engage with the PMP industryon how ContraPest can be beneficial to their pest management business, as they adapt to the removal of SGARs in many circumstances. Two, we plan to increase our market awareness campaigns to the broader residential consumer, commercial and agribusiness customer bases. The passing of AB1788 represents a tectonic shift in the industry, and while the magnitude impact on industry practices and product deployments is unknown today, it is certain to bring more opportunities for proven, non-lethal tools such as ContraPest."
SenesTech销售和营销执行副总裁史蒂文·克劳斯博士补充说：“我们一直在制定一项多管齐下的计划，现在正在启动一项多管齐下的计划，以推动Contrapest在加利福尼亚的采用。”“第一，我们计划与PMP行业就ContraPest如何为其害虫管理业务带来好处进行接触，因为他们在许多情况下都会适应SGAR的清除。第二，我们计划将市场知名度提高到更广泛的住宅消费者、商业和农业综合企业客户群。AB1788 的通过代表了该行业的结构性转变，尽管其对行业实践和产品部署的巨大影响目前尚不清楚，但它肯定会为Contrapest等久经考验的非致命工具带来更多机会。”
