Internet of Things (IoT) Based Electric Mouse Trap Using Telegram Application

Abstract

An Internet of Things (IoT)-based electric rat trap integrated with the Telegram
application is an intelligent system designed to detect and eliminate rodents automatically. By
utilizing an internet connection, the device enables continuous communication between the trap
and the user, allowing remote monitoring and control through the Telegram messaging platform.
The system employs motion detection sensors to identify the presence of rats. Once movement
is detected, the trap immediately sends a notification to the user via Telegram. These alerts can
be accessed from smartphones, tablets, or other internet-connected devices, ensuring that users
receive updates regardless of their location. Each notification provides useful information, such
as the detection time, the trap location, and the number of rodents captured or detected. Through
the Telegram interface, users can also remotely manage the trap by activating or deactivating it
as needed. For example, the trap can be turned off after successfully capturing a rat or reactivated
to continue monitoring the surrounding area. From a technical perspective, the system is built
around a microcontroller combined with a wireless communication module, such as Wi-Fi or
Bluetooth, to establish connectivity with the internet and the Telegram platform. This architecture
allows real-time data transmission and enables users to supervise and operate the device remotely, making rodent control more practical, efficient, and convenient. One of the primary
advantages of this IoT-based solution is its ability to provide continuous, real-time monitoring
while maintaining direct communication between the trapping system and the user. As a result,
users can respond promptly to rodent activity without needing to be physically present at the
installation site, improving both response time and operational efficiency. In conclusion, an IoTenabled electric rat trap integrated with Telegram offers an innovative and effective approach to
rodent management. By combining IoT technology, motion sensing, wireless communication, and
remote access through Telegram, the system delivers real-time monitoring, instant notifications,
and convenient remote control, resulting in a smarter and more efficient solution for rodent
detection and capture.
