A trap that catches 200 rats per year is nothing new for HyCare...
Hapert, May 9, 2025 - One smart trap, 200 catches per year. Not because there are more rats, but because digital systems react faster. While traditional traps are only checked when someone passes by, a HyCare Digital trap sends an immediate notification. This allows the trap to be reset right away. And that makes a difference: a classic trap might catch something ten times a year, while a digital trap can be active hundreds of times per year.
HyCare Digital combines smart traps, sensors, and an easy-to-use app. Together, they provide insight into the pest pressure on the farm. The app shows where action is needed and automatically generates a to-do list based on real-time data from the barn.
One key advantage: the system works entirely without poison. The mechanical traps catch pests quickly and humanely, without the use of harmful substances. This makes the system a perfect fit for the growing demand for sustainable and safe pest control in the agricultural sector.
Another major benefit: the customer stays in control. Thanks to the digital map, they can instantly see where pests are active. No more rounds across the entire farm—just targeted action in the right place. This saves time, reduces unnecessary farm visits, and helps to consistently reduce pest pressure.

"You get immediate insight into the situation: whether there is pest pressure or not. This allows you to work efficiently and know exactly what needs to be done. A pest control specialist only needs to come when absolutely necessary. A great addition to my business." – Poultry farm TopEggs.
With several customers, more than 100 rats have been caught in a year using the digital traps—an average of about 10 per farm. The conclusion is clear: the faster a trap is reset, the more effective it is. This was also evident at the HyCare test farm: 5 traps caught over 10 pests in the first few months. Now, there is barely any activity left—exactly what you want.
From poison to control. From guessing to insight.
