FLAGSTAFF, Ariz., May 21, 2018 — 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 proposed to register ContraPest® for use in California. This proposed action will be posted for thirty days. With approval, the Company will then be able to market and sell ContraPest throughout California, which is one of the largest state markets for pest control.
“California consistently leads the way with respect to innovative and environmentally sensitive policies, and California consumers can be the most demanding of the products they buy and use – the products must be effective, they must be as safe as possible, they must be ethical, and they must pose the least burden on the planet. These are the qualities that we are committed to and evident in our design of ContraPest. I expect this will be a great market for ContraPest, with rapid adoption, as the California consumers are always ahead of the curve,” said Dr. Loretta P. Mayer, co-Founder and CEO of SenesTech.
“We have been preparing for a California launch for some months now, and will aggressively launch our prepared marketing and sales campaigns. We have already booked space at upcoming regional trade shows as well as advertising in the appropriate media, and have provided information to key opinion leaders,” said Tom Chesterman, EVP and CFO of SenesTech.
About SenesTech
SenesTech is changing the paradigm of pest management by targeting the root cause of the problem: reproduction.
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. For more information visit the SenesTech website at www.senestech.com.
