Global manufacturer and supplier of pest control solutions, Pelsis Group, has launched the Digital Halo, an advanced AI-powered monitoring system designed to help food and drink manufacturers proactively prevent and control flying insect infestations.

The new real-time monitoring system helps achieve quality assurances and enable facilities managers within food and drink manufacturing sites to reduce pest risks and improve efficiencies.

Digital Halo provides real-time, remote monitoring of flying insect activity, enabling enhanced risk reduction, faster response times and more efficient pest management.

The system uses Pelsis’ proprietary digital technology to detect, track, and analyse insect activity 24/7. With the ability to set custom thresholds for insect catch rates and glue board capacity, users receive instant notifications when action is required, allowing them to address potential issues before they escalate.

All data is reported in real time through the Pelsis Digital app or web portal, offering a flexible and intuitive interface. Users can adjust reporting frequency and customise alerts, ensuring tailored monitoring that meets the specific needs of their facility.

By providing automated trend analysis and actionable insights, the Digital Halo optimises pest management strategies, reduces downtime, and supports compliance with hygiene regulations including strict pest control requirements.

Pelsis group portfolio lead for insect light traps, Stuart Morgan, said Halo LED is a highly effective, smart and sustainable fly control solution, and the company is confident it will support the increasing demand for flying insect management in the food and drink sector.

“The use of LED technology offers versatility and significant sustainability benefits with reduced energy consumption, electricity costs and a smaller carbon footprint alongside minimised waste owing to a longer lifespan,” said Morgan.

“Developing Halo LED this way reflects Pelsis’ commitment to develop solutions which align not just with users’ and businesses’ pest control requirements, but their wider sustainability goals.”

Pelsis Group employs more than 700 people across 15 sites in the UK, Europe, USA, and India, delivering innovative solutions to a global customer base. The company told F&DB that Digital Halo will be accessible for Australian customers, with more information on distribution available online at pelsis-pro.co.uk.
