For Ecology & Conservation Projects
Run your project. Without poisoning it.
Goodnature automatic traps, deployed across thousands of acres of conservation, restoration, and stewardship projects in North America. No poison. No non-target kills. No compromise.
Built for the work
Your projects don't have a do-over.
Restoration projects fail when invasive rats and mice eat the seed stock you spent two seasons cultivating. Bird recovery programs collapse when predators get to the nests. Watershed stewardship doesn't survive a rodenticide spill upstream.
In Hawaii, mongoose populations devastate native ground-nesting birds and sea turtle hatchlings — and conventional bait stations aren't sized for them. ATC supplies A18 traps to multiple Hawaii conservation programs working this exact problem.
The work is too long, too patient, and too expensive to be undone by the wrong tool. That's why ecology professionals across North America deploy Goodnature — and partner with ATC to keep the supply chain behind them moving.
White-Glove Service
We handle the logistics. You stay focused on the land.
Goodnature traps are designed in New Zealand and deployed worldwide. ATC removes every barrier between you and a working program.
Step 01
Site Consultation
We start with a call. Acreage, target species, terrain, regulatory context, deployment density. You walk away with a unit count, a placement strategy, and a quote — no hidden assumptions.
Step 02
Import & Logistics
Goodnature manufactures in New Zealand. We hold North American inventory in Sparks, Nevada. Customs, freight, and consolidated bulk shipping handled end-to-end.
Step 03
Deployment Support
Field placement guides, lure scheduling, and remote training for your crew. For larger deployments, we coordinate with Goodnature's technical team directly. You don't learn the system alone.
Step 04
Post-Purchase Service
Replacement parts, lure resupply, CO₂ cylinders, and warranty coverage — all from a single account contact. No reseller chains. No 60-day waits on a $20 part.
The Stakes
Rodenticides don't stop at the rodent.
For ecology work, the wrong tool is worse than no tool. Compare what each method actually does to the broader system.
Rodenticide programs
- Secondary poisoning of raptors, foxes, and scavengers
- Watershed and soil contamination risk
- Bait shyness reduces effectiveness over time
- Regulatory friction in sensitive zones
Snap traps
- Manual reset every kill — unworkable at acreage scale
- Inconsistent kills, animal welfare concerns
- Labor cost dominates total cost of program
- Weather and corrosion shorten useful life
Goodnature + ATC
Goodnature + ATC
- Up to 24 (A24) or 18 (A18) consecutive instant kills per CO₂ cylinder
- Targeted lure — no broadcast bait in the environment
- Carcasses fall to the ground and re-enter the food web safely
- Service intervals measured in months, not days
Field Results
Real programs. Real acreage. Real outcomes.
Three deployments that show what's possible when ecology programs commit to non-toxic rodent control at scale.
Case 01
Eight species left. Zero margin for error.
The Kaua'i Forest Bird Recovery Project protects what's left of the island's native forest birds. Goodnature traps deploy across remote, ecologically sensitive terrain — controlling rats without exposing endangered species to secondary poisoning.

Case 02
Conservation at scale, in places hard to reach.
Sam Aruch built NRDS to help land managers measure and share conservation impact — from forest bird surveys at 8,000 feet to invasive species removal across rugged Hawaiian terrain. Set-and-forget rodent control fits the way the work actually happens.

Case 03
5% rat-tracking. Less than half the toxin-based result.
In a NZ Department of Conservation field trial across 300 hectares during a beech mast, Goodnature A24 traps held rat-tracking rates under 5%. Aerial 1080 and pindone bait stations both came in three to four times higher — even after A24 trap density was cut in half.
The results were conclusive.
