Abstract

A remote notification electronic rodent trapping system and method is provided having a plurality of electronic rodent trapping devices configured to wirelessly communicate trap information to each other and to a PC or wireless device. Each is equipped with an RF transceiver, the rodent trapping devices form a mesh network with one another in which the trapping devices act as repeaters so that if one trap loses connectivity with the PC, information from that trap can be transmitted to the PC via another trap. The system and method can include forwarding trap status data to a remote notification website where the user can review the data. The web server hosting the website can also provide trap status data directly to a smartphone app on a user's smartphone. In addition, the website can send email and text notification to any remote device capable of receiving email or text messages.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of pet control and pet trap monitoring, and, more specifically, to a remote notification electronic rodent trap system and method having an electronic rodent trap with wireless communication capable of remotely monitoring the trap status ability. Background technique [0002] Rodent trap monitoring generally requires the user to approach the trap to determine whether the rodent has been killed or the trap has failed. Physical inspection of rodent traps is inconvenient, especially when the traps are located in barns, attics, basements, vent pipes, etc. Trap monitoring is still very time-consuming for users such as professional rodent control companies. Users place traps in multiple locations and then must physically visit each location frequently to monitor the status of the traps and ensure that the traps are in an operationally ready state. [0003] Therefore, there is a need for a system and method capable of rem...
