Schools & Early Learning
Child-safe, chemical-free wasp and fly control — with early warning before the first sting.
Schools & Early Learning
Schools and early-learning centres carry a special duty of care. A wasp sting on the playground can be a life-threatening anaphylactic event, and flies in the lunch area undermine food hygiene. Chemical sprays around children simply aren't an option.
GotchaPest's reusable, chemical-free traps are safe to place around eating and play areas, and the Pest Tracker lets a school see wasp activity building in its neighbourhood before the first sting.

Wasp safety on the field
Bee-safe traps around the field and lunch area draw wasps away from children — no sprays, no residues, no risk to students.
Flies in the lunch area
A reusable trap near the canteen and bins keeps flies off student food without aerosols near eating areas.
Outdoor learning
Tip out standing water and run a trap near outdoor classrooms to cut mosquitoes at dusk sessions.
