Literally, a Better Mousetrap from Helium & Victor® Powered by The People’s Network
Today Helium and Victor®, the world’s largest manufacturer of rodent-control traps, are excited to announce a partnership to bring better-connected mousetraps to commercial and residential buildings near you. Gone are the days of manually having to monitor traps on top of your pesky problem. Through this partnership, customers will be able to purchase Victor’s VLINK® Tunnel Traps from Parley Labs and set up a fully remote solution in minutes powered by The People’s Network.
The People’s Network, the largest public LoRaWAN network in the world — spanning over 3,000 cities globally — is owned and operated by consumers who have deployed Hotspots. The VLINK® Tunnel Trap is fully compatible with The People’s Network, using the LoRaWAN wireless protocol and nearby Hotspots to connect devices in the hardest places to reach (even your concrete basement). With a battery life of up to 3+ years, the innovative traps easily pair with your mobile device for remote monitoring and notifications to alert you when the trap has been deployed.
“Our team are experts in making highly-effective rodent control devices, we’ve been doing it for over 120 years. Having the chance to combine our expertise with Helium’s unique network is an exciting opportunity to bring revolutionary traps to a new audience.” — Ashley Brown, Victor®, Senior Director of Commercial Pest Control

Once received, traps can be easily provisioned and onboarded with Data Credits using Helium Console (check out the Helium Docs guide here). Alternatively, you can get your traps pre-provisioned and ready to go out of the box thanks to Parley Labs.
