Locating a dead mouse behind drywall to remove only the affected area without tearing up the entire wall.

Existing detection tools like thermal imaging, moisture meters, and gas detectors are not specifically designed for pinpointing a dead mouse behind drywall; their accuracy is uncertain and depends on the stage of decay.

RotFinder Pro

RotFinder Pro is a handheld sensor that combines thermal imaging, moisture detection, and gas sensing (methane/hydrogen sulfide) specifically calibrated for locating dead animal carcasses inside walls. It provides a precise hot spot on a digital overlay of the wall, allowing homeowners and pest pros to cut a small patch instead of demolishing the entire wall.

Key Features
  • Multi-sensor probe (thermal, moisture, gas) tuned for decay signatures
  • Visual overlay on smartphone showing probable carcass location
  • Color-coded intensity map (red = high concentration)
  • Battery-powered, portable, and DIY-friendly
Target Users: Homeowners and pest control technicians dealing with dead animal odors behind walls
Revenue Model: $149 one-time device purchase + $9.99/mo subscription for advanced analytics and calibration updates
