Innovative solutions to age-old problems
SenesTech’s first product ContraPest, applies our revolutionary technology to a global challenge that has persisted since the Middle Ages: the proliferation of rats in both urban and agricultural settings. ContraPest is a proven technology aimed at providing a non-lethal, fertility control solution that is readily consumed by rats. Since continued consumption reduces fertility and rapid reproduction is the root cause of rat infestations, ContraPest®introduces a new integrated pest management tool to help magnify the success of your pest management approach.
