Detect forest pests before they become serious outbreaks
Across the world pest insects are on the rise. Trapview gives forest managers continuous visibility on pest flights — so they can act early, before local infestations turn into large-scale outbreaks.
Main pests monitored
- Spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus)
- Spruce budworm (Choristoneura fumiferana)
- Pine processionary moth (Thaumetopoea pityocampa)
The challenge: vast forests are almost impossible to monitor in time
Shorter winters, longer summers, and storm or fire damage all boost beetle survival and reproduction, turning forests into ideal breeding grounds. With manual traps, you rarely see what’s happening in time.
Whichever the pest is, the critical variable is timing as it allows reacting while outbreak is still manageable.
From irregular checks to real-time visibility
Trapview automates bark beetle monitoring and closes the timing gap built into traditional trapping. Each trap captures and analyses insect images, uploads data continuously, and turns flights into clear, usable signals for forest managers.
- See first flights as soon as they start — not weeks later
- Monitor remote forests without additional field trips
- Coordinate actions between local teams and central authorities
- Predict upcoming flight peaks using population curves and weather data
Precision that answers real forest-management questions
Forest health & early warning
Trapview raises alerts as soon as beetle activity begins to rise, helping prevent local outbreaks from becoming landscape-level mortality events.
Carbon, biodiversity & risk
Earlier, targeted interventions reduce timber loss, preserve carbon stocks, and help limit wildfire risks linked to large amounts of deadwood.
Operations & logistics
Remotely connected traps cut the number of site visits needed. Teams can plan work and treatments around verified pest activity instead of fixed calendars.
Traceability & programmes
Centralised, validated data supports regional and national forest-health programmes, audits, and long-term risk models.
Bark beetle monitoring, modernised
Detect and react in remote locations
Monitoring pest insects in forests is even harder than in agriculture. Trapview automates this last mile, capturing and analysing data continuously so problems are detected before they spread too far.
Keep your forests alive
Trapview provides fully automated monitoring of key forestry pests — from different bark beetles to moths. You get reliable, season-long data without constant field visits, helping you protect spruce, pine, and other stands.
See the big picture
Every trap is geo-located, and Trapview’s area-wide views let you follow population dynamics, detect outbreaks early, and measure how effective your pest-management actions are over time.
