SMART Cities: High-Tech Rodent Control for Municipalities
Rodent infestations are a growing challenge for cities and municipalities across the country. Rats and mice spread disease, contaminate food sources, damage infrastructure, and create ongoing public health concerns for residents and businesses alike.
Traditional rodent control methods often struggle to keep up with rapidly growing urban rodent populations. That’s why Viking Pest Control continues to invest in innovative pest management technology through the Anticimex SMART Cities system — an intelligent, environmentally conscious approach to large-scale rodent control.
What Is SMART Cities Pest Control?
SMART Cities is an advanced rodent monitoring and control system that uses wireless technology, sensors, and real-time analytics to detect, monitor, and eliminate rodent activity throughout municipalities and commercial environments.
Unlike traditional pest control methods that rely heavily on routine inspections and rodenticide use, SMART technology provides continuous 24/7 monitoring and data collection to help identify infestations before they become widespread problems.
The system combines strategically placed devices, wireless communication, and pest trend analysis to create a proactive approach to rodent management.
How SMART Cities Rodent Control Works
Every SMART Cities project begins with a detailed site evaluation to identify rodent hotspots, vulnerable infrastructure, and ideal device placement locations.
SMART devices are then installed in key above-ground and below-ground locations throughout the targeted area, including:
Sewer systems
Utility corridors
Commercial properties
Alleyways
Public infrastructure
High rodent activity zones
Using sensors that detect heat signatures, motion, and rodent activity, the system continuously collects data and wirelessly sends reports back to Viking Pest Control for analysis.
This real-time monitoring allows technicians to:
Identify rodent activity patterns
Locate nests and travel routes
Detect infestations early
Optimize trap placement
Monitor trends over time
Improve long-term rodent reduction strategies
SMART Pest Control Devices
The Anticimex SMART system includes several specialized devices designed for different environments and pest challenges.
SMART Pipe and SMART Pipe 3
These devices are designed specifically for sewer systems and underground rodent activity. SMART Pipe systems help eliminate rats below ground in an environmentally responsible manner.
SMART Box
The SMART Box is an above-ground multi-catch rodent trap that automatically detects and eliminates rats or mice while continuously reporting activity data to the system.
SMART Eye
SMART Eye devices are compact rodent sensors designed to fit into narrow or hard-to-access spaces where rodents commonly travel or hide.
SMART Sense
SMART Sense technology detects activity from pests such as moths and cockroaches by monitoring temperature and movement changes.
SMART Connect
SMART Connect acts as the communication hub for the entire system, wirelessly transmitting pest activity data back to Viking’s central monitoring platform.
Benefits of SMART Rodent Control
SMART Cities technology offers several advantages over traditional municipal pest control programs.
24/7 Monitoring
Unlike conventional traps that require manual inspections, SMART devices continuously monitor pest activity around the clock and report data automatically.
Early Infestation Detection
Trend analysis allows pest professionals to identify emerging infestations before rodent populations spiral out of control.
Environmentally Friendly Pest Control
SMART systems reduce reliance on traditional rodenticides and help municipalities implement more environmentally responsible pest management programs.
Improved Efficiency
Real-time analytics allow technicians to focus efforts where rodent activity is highest, improving treatment accuracy and reducing unnecessary service visits.
Data-Driven Decision Making
Municipal leaders and property managers gain access to measurable pest control data that supports long-term planning and public health initiatives.
Why Urban Rodent Problems Are Increasing
Urban rodent populations continue to grow due to factors such as:
Increased food availability
Aging infrastructure
Sewer access
Dense populations
Construction activity
Climate conditions
Improper waste management
As cities expand, rats quickly adapt to changing environments and establish nests near homes, restaurants, businesses, and public spaces.
Large-scale infestations require coordinated, technology-driven solutions capable of addressing rodent activity across entire communities.
SMART Cities and Municipal Rodent Management
SMART Cities technology is especially effective for municipalities, commercial districts, transportation systems, industrial properties, and densely populated urban areas where traditional rodent control methods may fall short.
By combining monitoring technology, automated reporting, and targeted rodent reduction strategies, SMART Cities programs help communities maintain safer, healthier environments for residents and businesses.

Our team works closely with municipalities and commercial clients to design customized pest management programs tailored to the unique needs of each property or community.

Pest Management for Healthcare Facilities
Healthcare facilities in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and the Eastern Shore of Maryland absolutely must take the necessary steps to deter pests. Not only can bugs expose your patients and faculty to germs, but they can also damage your good name for years to come. Among the places that need pest management services include hospitals, clinical labs, hospices, urgent care centers, and physical therapy buildings. Let's take a closer look at the importance of pest control.
Four Reasons Why Your Healthcare Facility Needs Professional Pest Management
Protects Your Facility’s Reputation
Prevents Pests from Bringing In Bacteria and Viral Diseases
Halts Minor Pest Problems From Becoming Worse
Creates a Cleaner Environment for Patients and Employees
Higher Sanitation Scores
Top Healthcare Facility Pests & the Dangers They Pose
Cockroaches
Cockroaches have long remained among the most common pests found at healthcare facilities. Studies show these unhygienic insects spread more than 30 different kinds of bacteria, including Salmonella and E. coli. Even worse, few pests multiply in number as quickly. If you don’t take the necessary preventive measures, it doesn’t take long for a serious infestation to develop.
Rodents
Rodents can be even more unsanitary than cockroaches. Once mice and rats gain entry to a building, they immediately start to wreak havoc. Their droppings can contain a wide range of different pathogens, which increase the risk of someone getting sick. You also must consider the amount of property damage that can be caused by rodents, who can chew through almost anything they see which can include wires, walls, and furniture.
Bed Bugs
While recovering from an illness or injury, the last thing a patient needs is to be burdened by bed bugs. These blood-sucking insects can cover a person’s body with itchy bites. Bed bugs are also known for worsening allergy and asthma symptoms. Because bed bugs easily travel from place to place by hiding in clothes and luggage, it’s especially important to have a preventative pest management plan in place.
Flies
During the warmer months, flies are especially active with many making their way into businesses through any opening they can find. You definitely don’t want these pests inside your healthcare facility. In addition to being an annoyance to employees, guests, and long-term residents they constantly contaminate surfaces by leaving behind germ-filled saliva.
Ants
Although ants may be tiny, they can cause big problems for healthcare facilities. They are often attracted to open wounds and intravenous units. Of course, the kitchen area is also a major hot spot for ants. When it comes to ants in the kitchen these pests are known to spread food-borne disease organisms such as Salmonella and E. coli. Keep your healthcare facility protected against ants by maintaining recurring pest control services from a trusted provider like Viking Pest Control.
Pest Control Preventive Measures
The first step is to seek professional pest management. Our experts know exactly what it takes to ensure a pest-free environment. To help further deter pests, it’s crucial your facility is kept tightly sealed. Many pests love to take refuge in moist conditions, which means plumbing leaks need to be repaired as soon as possible. To no surprise, cleanliness is of the utmost importance. Food waste and garbage should never be allowed to sit for long periods.
About Viking Pest Control
Healthcare facilities can always trust Viking Pest Control to provide top-notch commercial pest control. We have been proudly serving your area for more than 40 years. Our licensed technicians understand that every business is unique in its pest control needs and specialize in treating and preventing pest infestations.

How SMART Rodent Control Technology Is Changing Pest Management
Rodents are among the most destructive and difficult pests to control in homes and businesses. Rats and mice spread disease, contaminate food, damage property, and reproduce rapidly once they establish a nesting site indoors.
Traditional rodent control methods often rely on periodic inspections, bait stations, and reactive treatments. Today, advances in pest control technology are creating more proactive solutions. SMART rodent control combines digital monitoring, real-time alerts, and professional pest management expertise to help detect and eliminate rodent activity before infestations spiral out of control.
What Is SMART Rodent Control?
SMART rodent control is an advanced pest management system that uses connected digital devices and infrared monitoring technology to track rodent activity 24/7.
The system combines intelligent sensors, wireless communication, and professional pest control services to create a proactive rodent management solution for commercial and residential properties.
Unlike traditional pest control methods, SMART technology continuously monitors for rodent activity and provides real-time data that helps pest professionals respond quickly and strategically.
How the SMART Pest Control System Works
SMART rodent protection systems use several integrated components designed to monitor rodent movement and activity throughout a property.
Infrared Monitoring Sensors
SMART sensors use infrared technology to detect temperature differences caused by rodent movement. These sensors help minimize false alerts while accurately tracking rats and mice in hard-to-reach areas.
Sensors are often installed in:
Utility spaces
Storage areas
Wall voids
Crawl spaces
Food storage facilities
Basements and attics
Wireless Communication Technology
The SMART system communicates wirelessly through a dedicated network and does not require access to a customer’s WiFi or computer systems.
When rodent activity is detected or a trap is triggered, the system automatically sends alerts to Viking Pest Control’s monitoring team for immediate review.
Continuous Data Collection
SMART devices actively transmit data even when no rodent activity is detected. This allows pest professionals to identify trends, monitor hotspots, and adjust treatment strategies proactively.
The result is a more efficient and targeted approach to rodent management.
SMART Rodent Control Devices
Several SMART devices work together to monitor and control rodent populations effectively.
SMART Eye
The SMART Eye is a compact infrared sensor designed to detect movement in narrow or difficult-to-access areas where rodents commonly travel.
The device continuously monitors activity and reports findings to Viking’s central monitoring system.
SMART Connect
SMART Connect acts as the communication hub for the entire system. It wirelessly connects sensors and traps while transmitting rodent activity data to pest management professionals.
SMART Traps
SMART traps are strategically placed in areas with high rodent activity or near potential entry points identified during the inspection process.
These traps allow pest professionals to respond quickly and optimize placement based on real-time activity patterns.
Benefits of SMART Rodent Control
Digital rodent monitoring provides several advantages over traditional pest control methods.
24/7 Rodent Monitoring
Unlike periodic inspections, SMART technology monitors your property around the clock. Continuous monitoring allows for faster detection and earlier intervention before infestations become severe.
Proactive Pest Management
Real-time alerts help pest professionals identify activity trends and adjust treatments proactively rather than waiting for visible signs of infestation.
Reduced Rodent Damage
Early detection can help minimize:
Property damage
Food contamination
Equipment damage
Business interruptions
Health risks associated with rodents
Eco-Friendly Rodent Control
SMART rodent systems focus on monitoring and targeted trapping rather than relying heavily on rodenticides and chemical treatments, making them a more environmentally responsible option.
Why Rodents Are Difficult to Control
Rats and mice are highly adaptable pests that thrive in both residential and commercial environments.
Rapid Reproduction
Rodents reproduce quickly, allowing infestations to grow rapidly if left untreated. A single female rat can produce multiple litters per year, and young rodents reach maturity quickly.
Adaptability
Rodents can:
Squeeze through tiny openings
Climb walls and pipes
Hide in inaccessible areas
Adjust behavior to avoid detection
Their ability to adapt makes long-term monitoring especially important.
Disease Risks
Rodents are known carriers of numerous diseases and can contaminate surfaces and food supplies through urine, droppings, and nesting materials.
They may also trigger allergies and respiratory issues in indoor environments.
Who Benefits From SMART Rodent Control?
SMART rodent control systems are highly effective for a wide range of industries and property types, including:
Restaurants
Food processing facilities
Grocery stores
Warehouses
Apartment complexes
Hotels
Hospitals
Schools
Office buildings
Farms and equestrian facilities
Residential homes
Properties with ongoing rodent pressure often benefit most from continuous digital monitoring.
Professional SMART Rodent Control Services
Every property has unique rodent challenges, which is why professional inspections and customized placement strategies are critical for success.
Viking Pest Control begins with a detailed site evaluation to identify:
Rodent entry points
High-activity areas
Nesting locations
Environmental conditions contributing to infestations
From there, pest professionals develop a customized SMART monitoring and rodent control plan tailored to the property’s needs.
Businesses and homeowners can learn more about Viking Pest Control’s rodent control services and advanced SMART monitoring solutions.
Protect Your Property With SMART Rodent Monitoring
Rodent infestations can quickly become costly, disruptive, and difficult to control without the right tools and expertise. SMART rodent control technology helps identify activity earlier, improve treatment accuracy, and provide long-term protection for homes and businesses.

Everything You Need to Know About the Return of the Cicadas
Brood X is the most significant and most widespread cicada generation ever known, and this generation will emerge in 2021 after 17 years spent underground. These pests will significantly affect around ten states within the United States, including New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Maryland.
Are you concerned? Then read on. Here is a quick FAQ about the cicadas' return from the pest control experts at Viking Pest Control.
What Is a Cicada?
A cicada is a bug that looks like an overgrown fly. Cicadas have compound eyes, as well as large clear-membraned wings. There are over 3,000 species, but there are two main categories: annual and periodical cicadas; explain the pest control experts at Viking Pest Control.
Cicadas can grow up to 2.25 inches, and they'll spend most of their life underground and have a "rebirth" by re-emerging after some period.
Annual cicadas emerge from the ground every year, while periodical cicadas emerge every 17 years in NJ, PA, MD, and DE.
What Does a Cicada Sound Like?
Cicadas are well-known for their sounds. You'll know you're near them when you hear a maraca-like buzz. This sound comes from the males, as the females are silent.
Are There Pest Control Treatments for Cicadas?
Currently, no pest control product is available to treat the abundance of Cicadas. However, you should know that cicadas are just a nuisance pest and will diminish about 4-6 weeks after they emerge. Cicadas can't reproduce indoors either, so you don't have to worry about an infestation in your home, explain the pest control experts at Viking.
When Do Cicadas Come Out in NJ, PA, MD, and DE?
For 2021, Brood X is the most significant and most widespread cicada generation ever known. Viking's pest management professionals expect to see them emerging at the beginning of May, with activity slowing in late June. If your trees have started growing leaves, then cicadas will likely follow.
Some warm rain will usually trigger the emergence date, especially when the soil 8 inches below ground reaches a temperature of 64 degrees, explain our pest experts.
When Will Cicadas Go Away?
Viking's pest control experts explain, after cicadas emerge, expect them to live for 4 to 6 weeks. After that, they'll die off. As we've mentioned above, cicada activity should diminish by early July.
How to Get Rid of Cicadas
Cicadas will prey on your plants; Viking's pest management professionals recommend protecting your plants by spraying cicadas off with your garden hose. You can also drape netting on them.
Call Viking for Your Pest Control Service Needs
As we mentioned above, currently, there is no pest control treatment for cicadas, but we hope this article has helped answer some questions you might have about these pests and given you some suitable methods to keep your plants safe and sound.
For all your other pest control service needs, know that you can count on us. If you're looking for local, affordable pest control in the New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, or Maryland area, then schedule a service with us now. We'll get you a fast and free estimate!
