SenesTech

SenesTech is a biotech platform and research company that has developed an innovative technology for managing animal populations by fertility control. They develop non-lethal treatments that have the potential to be more effective, more humane, and less invasive to the environment than traditional management methods. SenesTech’s first product applies their revolutionary technology to a worldwide problem that has persisted since the Middle Ages: the proliferation of rats in both urban and agricultural settings. Their innovative compound is readily consumed by rats and leaves them non-reproductive with no other observable side effects. The rodents live out their normal 8-12 month life span without producing offspring. Since rapid reproduction is the root cause of rat infestation, this introduces a new paradigm to the science of pest control. When used as directed, their species-specific formulation is environmentally neutral, does not affect non-target animals, and has no impact on human health or fertility.
