PelGar USA: Roban Foam Bundle Set

Beauty shot of Roban Foam Kit
IMAGE: PELGAR USA


The Roban Foam Bundle Set is an innovative solution designed to protect your residential and commercial accounts from rodents and other pests. The set features a can of Roban Foam and two PelGar Copper Mesh packs of 6 feet each, providing pest-proofing and rodent-blocking capabilities.

The foam fills and seals gaps, cracks and structural openings, while the copper mesh adds a tough, gnaw-resistant barrier that prevents rodents from chewing through treated areas. This integrated approach ensures both immediate sealing and extended durability, making it ideal for foundation gaps, pipe penetrations, utility lines and other high-risk entry points. Designed for pest management professionals, the kit enhances exclusion work by preventing foam damage and improving long-term performance.

Whether you’re dealing with insects, rats or mice, the Roban Foam Bundle Set offers a strong and durable barrier to keep unwanted pests out. Made for larger voids and openings, the foam is not super expanding; it is a neutral color and cures slowly for a dense consistency and strong adhesion. 

About PelGar

Based in the United Kingdom, PelGar provides products and expertise in more than 60 countries worldwide, including the United States. The company supports customers who are directly involved in controlling nuisance pests, national campaigns against the vectors of disease, and local and national Conservation in Partnership (CiP) projects. PelGar’s global network of experienced staff and in-country resources guarantee an exceptional level of service.

LOGOS: SITEONE and REINDERS

SiteOne Landscape Supply recently announced that it has acquired Reinders, a fifth-generation, family-owned distributor of irrigation, agronomics and more with 12 locations across Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas and Minnesota. With more than 150 years of industry leadership, Reinders has become known for its technical expertise, rapid on-site diagnostics, tailored product recommendations and service from a team of trained professionals.

Reinders evaluated multiple options for its future before choosing to partner with SiteOne, citing shared values, a focus on the green industry, strong resources and capabilities and a commitment to preserving its legacy. Reinders will continue operating under its established name, maintaining the customer relationships and service model that have defined the company, while leveraging the full resources and capabilities of SiteOne.

“As a very successful fifth-generation, family-owned company, Reinders is well-known and respected in the green industry for quality and reliability, a commitment to exceptional customer service and for helping their customers succeed — values we share at SiteOne,” said Doug Black, chairman and CEO of SiteOne. “This acquisition expands our ability to offer the full line of landscape supplies to our combined customers, enhances our presence in the market and provides an avenue for further expansion in the growing Midwest market. We’re excited to welcome Ann Reinders and the talented Reinders team to the SiteOne family and look forward to working together to serve landscape professionals throughout the Midwest and beyond.”

“For more than 150 years, we have built a name, a brand and a legacy in the green industry,” said Ann Reinders, VP of operations at Reinders, who will remain with the business following the acquisition. “While the Reinders family has led the company for five generations, it’s our incredible people who have built the brand. SiteOne is the best partner to continue to further the service excellence and quality products the green industry deserves. I look forward to leading Reinders into our next phase, strengthened by the infrastructure, leadership and people-focused approach SiteOne provides.”

“Joining SiteOne allows Reinders to leverage the strengths of both organizations to provide superior customer service well into the future,” said Craig Reinders, CEO of Reinders. Craig will move on to lead Spartan Turf Products, the Reinders family Toro distribution business.  “The alignment between the core values of SiteOne and Reinders creates a powerful foundation, uniquely positioning Reinders to elevate the level of service and support its customers rely on — now and in the years ahead.”

The partnership underscores both companies’ long-term commitment to the green industry and to strengthening the distribution network that turf professionals depend on every day. Customers should continue working with their local Reinders teams as usual while the companies thoughtfully integrate over time.

Liphatech: TakeDown II series

IMAGE: LIPHATECH
IMAGE: LIPHATECH

For effective control of tough rodent infestations, pest management professionals (PMPs) can turn to TakeDown II. As an acute rodenticide for the professional pest control market, TakeDown II provides faster results than anticoagulant rodenticides, the company says. A lethal dose may be consumed in one night’s feeding, though it may take two or more days for the first dead rodents to appear.

Take Down II’s active ingredient, bromethalin, is effective against house mice, Norway rats and roof rats. It can also be used to fight anticoagulant-resistant rodent populations, especially those in commercial settings.

For PMPs looking to take down rodent populations, this rodenticide is available in two formulation options. The first is an 8-gram soft bait pouch that offers a palatable bait matrix and maintains its integrity even in hot environments. PMPs can also purchase TakeDown II in 14-gram mini blocks, designed with rodent gnawing edges and a center hole for securing on vertical or horizontal rods. TakeDown II mini blocks are registered in all states except Maine.

TakeDown II is one of many intelligent solutions offered by Liphatech and supported by its team of pest control experts. These technical support specialists offer a combined 150 years of experience and can help PMPs to solve complex pest challenges.

About Liphatech

With U.S. headquarters based in Milwaukee, Wis., Liphatech is a worldwide manufacturer of pest control products. It is considered to be the developer of three of the industry’s active ingredients: chlorophacinone, bromadiolone and difethialone. The company was founded in France in 1946 io develop anticoagulants for the treatment of heart patients. It developed chlorophacinone in the 1960s and branded it as Rozol, a family of products that includes grain and pelleted products for field and structural use, and a tracking powder for use in and around structures. In the 1970s, Liphatech developed bromadiolone, its original second-generation rodenticide active ingredient.

The innovations continued with the opening of its U.S. facility in 1987. Research there and in Europe resulted in the discovery of difethialone during the late 1980s, with U.S. Environmental Protection Agency registration as an active ingredient in 1995.

Surinam cockroaches: Biology, behavior and control tips

Surinam cockroaches

The next time you’re at a home improvement retailer account, and you encounter cockroaches in the “lawn and garden” space, take the time to examine them closely. You might just be dealing with Surinam cockroaches (Pycnoscelus surinamensis).

These small, peridomestic cockroaches get their common name from a historical spelling of the Republic of Suriname, a country on the northeastern coast of South America. They are descended from Indian cockroaches (P. indicus), which are native to Southeast Asia.

Key takeaways

  • Asexual reproduction: Surinam cockroaches are obligately parthenogenetic; a single nymph can start an entire infestation through cloning.
  • Burrowing habits: Unlike many common roaches, this species prefers to burrow into soil, mulch and compost to feed on plant roots and shoots.
  • Identification: Adults are just under 1 inch long with a shiny black pronotum and a distinct white band on the leading edge near the head.
  • Moisture management: Effective control relies on an IPM approach that focuses on limiting irrigation and thinning plantings to reduce moisture.

Biology and behavior

The adult Surinam cockroach is just under 1 inch long with brown shiny wings with obvious venation. The pronotum is shiny and dark black with small punctations (spots) and has a white band on the leading edge near the head. Its legs are short and contain stiff spines.

Nymphs are solid black, with a shiny anterior (front half of the body) and a dull posterior. Nymphs are sometimes confused with beetles, but most beetles have hardened elytra (sheathlike forewings) forming a line down the middle of the back that cockroaches lack.

This cockroach reproduces asexually and is also ovoviviparous, meaning it gives birth to live young after the eggs hatch internally. A female Surinam may have between 30 and 36 offspring, usually delivered at night. The first meal of the newly born nymphs typically is the remains of their ootheca, which is expelled from the female after giving birth.

The egg-to-adult cycle takes about seven to eight months. The female adult lives about a year and reproduces continually. Males are rarely seen and are sexually nonfunctional when they do occur.

Cloning around

Surinam cockroaches are obligately parthenogenetic, which is a form of asexual reproduction where females exclusively produce offspring from unfertilized eggs. While the progenitor species (Pycnoscelus indicus) exists in both male and female forms and reproduces sexually, the Surinam cockroach is thelytokous parthenogenic.

The Indian cockroach (Pycnoscelus indicus) is the progenitor, or ancestor species of the Surinam cockroach. Females of the two species look virtually identical, as seen by the two individuals on the left. The two male individuals (right) have longer wings and, unlike the rare male Surinam cockroach, these Indian males are fertile. IMAGE: KYLE KANDILIAN, ROACHCROSSING.COM

Think about it: That means a single nymph transported to a new location is enough to start an entire infestation. To demonstrate this, I once captured a nymph and set it up in a jar with some damp soil and a raw carrot for food. Four months later, I had a small colony of Surinams composed of clones of the original nymph. Asexual reproduction continued for a number of generations, with no males ever found.

U.S. distribution and habitat

Surinam cockroaches live outside throughout the southern U.S., where winters are mild. They prefer moist conditions and burrow into humus, mulch, lawn thatch and even compost piles, where they feed on the young shoots and roots of growing plants. In the southwest U.S., where arid conditions predominate, this cockroach thrives within mulch in shaded, irrigated areas because it dehydrates faster than most cockroach species.

Because of its burrowing nature and attraction to plants, this species often is transported in soil, mulch and potted plants and may become established indoors in the soil of house plants. While they rarely exist in high numbers outdoors in the U.S., in heated greenhouses, butterfly houses, zoos and mall atriums, populations can reach the tens of thousands.

Integrated pest management strategies

Because these cockroaches come out at night to feed — or even feed underground on roots — the extent of an infestation may remain hidden until serious damage is caused to plantings.

Effective control requires an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) approach:

  • Moisture control: This should be the prime focus. Limit irrigation and thin out plantings to help prevent moisture buildup.
  • Treatments: Sprays and granular treatments are usually effective against this pest.
  • Baits: Granular baits can also be utilized as part of a comprehensive program.

The Surinam cockroach is an unusual peridomestic species. With its asexual reproduction and burrowing habits, it is a pest well worth getting to know for any technician servicing accounts with interior or exterior landscaping.

Successful backyard mosquito control starts with the right approach: Target larvae early and control adults where they rest. Veseris helps pest management professionals (PMPs) bring the right pieces together with trusted products, practical tools, and knowledgeable support.

About Kness Pest Defense

Per company history, the Ketch-All was invented by a young, widowed father of six, Austin Enos “Brick” Kness, in 1924. Mice were prevalent at the high school in which Kness was a custodian, and led him to the idea of the “box” trap. Kness, a Pest Management Professional Hall of Famer (Class of 2024), built the first trap from a square oilcan, a Tuxedo Tobacco can, a spring from a curtain rod, and the wood base of a crate. The first night he set his trap, he captured five mice.

He was elated and showed the teachers and his friends. He was encouraged to build others for his friends and to seek a patent. By 1927, Kness Mfg. Co. was formed to produce the KetchAll Automatic Mousetrap and another of Kness’ inventions, the RotoBow tree saw.

US Pest Index records below-average January growth

The William Blair/PCO Bookkeepers and M&A Specialists total U.S. Pest Index increased 9 percent year-over-year in January 2026, below the long-term average index growth rate of 10 percent.

“The slightly below-average result in January is likely due to disruptive weather patterns, including several major storms across the Eastern and Southern regions of the United States,” says William Blair Equity Researcher Tim Mulrooney. “The residential, commercial and termite indices decelerated in January.”

Dan Gordon, managing member of PCO Bookkeepers & M&A Specialists, adds, “Even in a weather-impacted month, the industry continued to grow well above the broader pest control market’s long-term 5 to 6 percent compound annual rate. Overall, the data suggest the fundamentals remain strong, and as weather normalizes, we would expect growth trends to revert closer to historical averages.”

The month’s results by segment include:

  • The Residential Pest Index increased 13 percent year-over-year.
  • The Commercial Pest Index increased 6 percent year-over-year.
  • The Termite Index increased 6 percent year-over-year.
  • The Bed Bug Index decreased 11 percent year-over-year.
  • The Mosquito Index increased 15 percent year-over-year.

About the William Blair/PCO Bookkeepers & M&A Specialists Pest Index

The William Blair/PCO Bookkeepers & M&A Specialists Pest Index tracks the monthly performance of 146 privately held pest control companies across 38 states with combined annual 2025 revenue of $583 million. The purpose of the report is to track the monthly performance of several U.S. pest markets. It does not include residential door-to-door companies.

New features include refined interlocking panels for a more secure, seamless fit; enhanced rigidity for improved structural stability; a streamlined profile for a cleaner, more discreet appearance; and installer-friendly sections that trim easily for faster onsite customization.

Weather and UV-resistant durable interlocking panels reduce recurring cleanup costs and help protect underlying coatings and substrates from acidic degradation. Discreet, humane and long-lasting, AviAngle is the clean edge solution facilities managers, pest control professionals and architects trust to maintain compliance, preserve appearance and extend asset life.

About Bird-X

Bird-X started as a small idea in 1964, starting with a Bird Lite (today known as the Bird Strobe Light) that was being sold to deter birds from commercial areas.

In the beginning, Bird-X was a single-employee business that was entirely operated by Richard Seid. The company spent the first 28 years selling innovative bird control products via trade publications. Readers responded to the ads in these publications and Bird-X sold bird control products directly to the end user.

In 1992, Seid’s son Joe oined the family business as the company’s 10th employee and strategically expanded sales channels. This was the start of a major growth period for the company. Throughout years of a dedicated online presence, combined with a knowledgeable team of bird control sales specialists, Bird-X has become a time-tested leader in the bird control industry.

Now, Bird-X supplies a growing product line of more than 400 humane bird control solutions used in more than 60 countries around the world. The company employs a seasoned staff — 20 percent of whom have been a part of the company for more than 25 years and have directly contributed to the tremendous growth and success.
