SenesTech’s Evolve rodent birth control tested in Hong Kong, San Francisco

SenesTech (SNES) announced compelling results from two major urban deployments – one in Hong Kong and one in San Francisco – showing how pairing Evolve Rat Birth Control with traditional poison bait stations delivers faster, more sustainable rodent control. In both Hong Kong and San Francisco, pest management teams implemented a novel integrated strategy: deploying Evolve’s palatable soft bait alongside conventional rodenticide blocks within standard bait stations across infested buildings and surrounding areas. In Hong Kong, this method was applied in a high-density mixed-use building with persistent rodent activity. Within three months, sightings fell dramatically, bait consumption declined as the population shrank, and no new litters were detected – breaking the cycle of reinfestation that had frustrated property managers for years. In San Francisco, an urban deployment in a heavily trafficked neighborhood known for recurring infestations achieved similar success: a clear reduction in visible rodent activity, less poison used overall, and a measurable drop in new rodent births.
