AI Pest Management
Shield uses Insectram to give commercial clients 24/7 access to the evidence behind their pest management programme. Your technical manager, your site team and your auditor see the same record, without chasing paperwork.
At a Glance
AI pest management is pest control delivered with continuous digital monitoring and analytics rather than paper records. Readings from QR-coded monitoring points feed a live portal that trends catch data, flags recurring and seasonal risk, tracks corrective actions to close-out and holds the compliance documents an auditor asks for. The technical decisions remain with qualified pest control technicians.
The Problem
Most sites do not have a pest control problem. They have an evidence problem, and it only surfaces when the auditor arrives.
Service sheets emailed as PDFs, forwarded, renamed and lost. Nobody can say with certainty which was the last visit or what it found.
A year of catch readings sitting in a folder, never analysed, so a rising pattern is discovered by the auditor rather than by you.
A proofing recommendation repeated across four visits, closed on none of them, and evidenced on none of them.
The Insectram Portal
One login, your whole programme, updated the moment a technician completes a visit.
Every reading tied to a QR-coded monitoring point, a department and a zone, so activity is always traceable to a place on the plan.
The report exists before the technician leaves site. No waiting, no chasing, no version confusion.
Proofing and hygiene actions raised with images, assigned to an owner and tracked through to evidenced close-out.
Catch data trended continuously and cut by date, point, department, area, site or portfolio — whatever window the auditor asks for.
Insurance, training certificates, risk assessments, COSHH, RAMS, site plans and treatment records in one structured place.
Read access can be granted for the audit window, so your auditor reads the evidence directly rather than through printed extracts.
Who Uses It
Trend analysis produced as a by-product of service, and a documented corrective action trail ready for any audit window.
Visibility of what was found, where, and what needs doing on site — without waiting for a report to be emailed over.
Multi-site reporting rolled up to portfolio level, with per-site detail underneath, in a single login.
Direct read access to the current and historical record, cut to the period and the zones being assessed.
Audit Evidence
The same portal answers all six, because the evidence requirements overlap far more than the standards do.
Documented IPM, trend analysis of catch data, contractor competence records.
The same discipline, evidenced to GFSI expectations across the supply chain.

Actions assigned, photographed and closed out in-system
Evidence current every day of the year
Portfolio roll-up across every branch
Your records, exportable in full
How the AI is Used
Insectram’s analytics read previous visits, detect recurring risk at specific points, and identify seasonal pressure before it becomes an infestation. What they do not do is choose a treatment. Every technical decision — what to proof, what to monitor, whether intervention is justified, which product and dose under CRRU and COSHH — is made by a qualified Shield technician with field biologist oversight, and recorded with their name against it.
Multi-Site
Group structure with per-site records underneath, so a facilities manager stops holding twelve separate relationships and twelve separate folders.
The same monitoring standard and the same report shape everywhere, which makes a genuine comparison between sites possible for the first time.
Portfolio-level trend reporting for board and retailer reviews, with the detail one click underneath it.
