Automation
This automated rodent trap has the ability to trap unwatned rodents, then notify you once the trap has been activated. The red switch arms the device, while the black knob opens a hatch to release the caught inahabitants. The digital read out lets you know how many stale rodents have been trapped inside the device. It easily connects to your tablet, using a highly specialized app, to alert you to possible triggers whilst you're away from home (or sleeping).
