Suren Cooke Agencies creates history

The first of its kind both locally and internationally, SkySpray 1000 is the latest addition to the Suren Cooke Agencies arsenal for pest eradication. Using the latest drone technology, SkySpray 1000 takes to the skies armed with a state of the art customised auto pilot system and GPS navigation.

This latest technique of eradicating pests from the sky is rapidly becoming popular with the increase of dengue and insect infestations. SkySpray 1000 navigates its way to those hard to reach gutters, roof tops, hard to access window ledges and high locations with ease and deploys insecticides to the required areas. It’s innate ability to identify, target and treat only the breeding areas, increases the potential of better pest eradication. This reduces the chances of environmental pollution and unnecessary use of insecticide which could also lead to the elimination of non target species.
Marsh lands, garbage dumps and blocked waterways can now be accessed with ease thanks to SkySpray 1000.

 The Research and Development Team of Suren Cooke Agencies is on a constant mission to educate, act and eradicate the pest epidemics in Sri Lanka and Maldives in the most efficient way.
 Suren Cooke Agencies partners with Hobby Tech Lanka (Pvt) Limited for this unique experience. HTL is the pioneer in recreational model flying post war era. They also develop their own technology and innovations on UAV and Robotics for commercial usage. They are the first to introduce drone based aerial photography in Sri Lanka. The joint Managing Directors of HTL, Gihan Panditaratne and Ravith Botejue hold MSc. Degrees from University of Peradeniya and University of Moratuwa, in the fields of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) & Remote Sensing and Computer Science respectively and they are passionate recreational pilots who have an urge for innovation.
 "It's just the tip of the iceberg of processing solutions for geo-spatial aspects. Traditionally, many man hours are spent handling such tedious and risky tasks. But now, with our latest offering, we can have less human engagement for both pest control and agriculture,” said Panditaratne. 

Adding to that, Business Development Director Sheran Cooke said, “Introducing SkySpray 1000 which is the first of its kind, has been a very proud moment for us and our strategic partners. Since it’s launch last month, it has been a game changer in the pest control industry. Innovation is key and constant innovation is progress. This we strive for both locally and internationally.  SkySpray 1000, takes us that closer to eliminating harmful pests and creating a better living environment for those affected”.
