FLAGSTAFF, Ariz., July 16, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- SenesTech, Inc.
(NASDAQ: SNES), a developer of proprietary technologies for
managing animal pest populations through fertility control, today
announced that the California Department of Pesticide Regulation
(CDPR) has approved ContraPest® for sale and use in
California under registration
#91601-1-AA. The Company expects to focus on marketing and
sales efforts of ContraPest in California immediately.
"California is the fifth
largest economy in the world and one of the top three state markets
for pest control nationally, which is immediately attractive for
any developer of innovative pest management solutions. In addition,
California consistently leads the
way with respect to innovative and environmentally sensitive
policies, and California consumers
demand products which are effective, are as safe as possible, are
ethical, and pose the least burden on the planet. This makes
California a particularly
important market for ContraPest, which was designed with the same
principles," said Dr. Loretta P.
Mayer, co-Founder and CEO of SenesTech.
About ContraPest
ContraPest® is an innovative technology that targets
the reproductive capabilities of Norway and roof rats. As a highly palatable
liquid, the formulation promotes sustained consumption, helping to
reduce fertility in both male and female rats, bringing populations
down and keeping them down. Our delivery system is designed to
minimize handler exposure, and ContraPest is dispensed inside
tamper resistant bait stations, minimizing the risks to non-target
species.
As a versatile tool, ContraPest can be used within Integrated
Pest Management (IPM) programs to help reduce reproduction and
magnify the success of IPM protocols or as a standalone, non-lethal
solution for customers that are looking to reduce or eliminate the
use of lethal methodologies.
ContraPest is a Restricted Use Pesticide, due to applicator
expertise. Please read and comply with all label instructions.
About SenesTech
SenesTech has developed and is in the process of
