Desired outcome
The issue of crawling insects in homes has been an ongoing issue. The popular types of crawling insects causing problems have been ants and cockroaches. The search will focus on existing market solutions targeted towards crawling insects such as ants and cockroaches (other types of crawling insects are in scope i.e., bed bugs).
Details of the Innovation Need
We are looking for solutions that may be:
•Trap and devices (exclude repellent options).
•New start-ups and/or patented solutions.
•Any groundbreaking findings from universities/institutes.
•Solutions which are consumable – technology is or has a component which needs to be refilled.
•Solutions which are regulation compliant – technology owners have a solid understanding of the regulations on the technologies, ideally the solutions are FIFRA-compliant.
We are not looking for:
•Solutions which are solely applied outdoors are out of scope.
•Devices which with no consumable component.
•Non-regulated technologies - owner needs to provide a detailed background on how the technology is regulated, whether it is by FIFRA standards or a different set of standards.
•Technology with no proven efficacy data.
•Unvalidated/unproven ideas – proposals must have some available validation in other fields.
