Developed as a tool for pest technicians, the Pest Partner app is a source of useful pest information, control advice as well as full product and treatment information.

The updated version of the app is available to download for free from 7 February 2020, replacing the existing one.

Tim Peeling, Bayer professional pest solutions product manager, says this tool is simple to use and easily accessible on all app stores.

“There is a new quick-access feature that takes the user straight to the information needed while on the job.

“Another updated feature is the dosage calculator,” he says. “With the ability to enter the treatment area measurements and the selected product, the app will automatically calculate the correct application rate.

“The ‘ask an expert’ feature has also been reinvigorated meaning that users can now get excellent advice, quickly and easily,” adds Tim.

Tim confirms the new app replaces the existing Pest Partner app, so it must be downloaded again as the previous version is unavailable from the 23 January.
