Pest-control teams can scan device barcodes and record station condition, captures, bait condition, and other data. Chemical records can include EPA registration numbers, active ingredients, dilution rates, application methods, and targeted areas; they are kept online for three years. The software can generate pesticide usage logs required by California and New York. Plans are billed per field user, with office staff free.
