SnailPail distributes non-traditional pets: snails, worms and insects

Image
StartupRealities No 54 SnailPail  is a pet distributor that specialises in common but non-traditional pets such as snails, earthworms, beetles and butterflies. The company produces aquariums and other types of containers for these animals that maximise viewing opportunities, e.g. glass labyrinths for snails and worms. CEO QUOTE "SnailPail delivers an interesting glass container at your home, full of exotic animals... as pets go. But that's not the whole story. We also creates educational opportunities. For example, children who own snails love taking them out of their #snailquarium and racing them against one another on a sheet of paper. #SnailRacing is a creative and fun game and we make this type of creativity possible: our pets are relatively low-maintenance, multiple in number and easily replaceable," - said company founder and CEO Sanyl Pali.

SolidMouthwash pills help improve oral hygiene

Image
StartupRealities No 48 SolidMouthwash is a consumer products maker that has developed mouthwash in solid form and produces it in the form of pills (dragée). Unlike chewing gum, the mouthwash pill dissolves in the mouth and has to be spat out after 3-5 minutes. The company sells mouthwash pills in a set with absorbent pills that soak up the mouthwash in the mouth and can be spat out just like a spent chewing gum. CEO QUOTE "Oral hygiene is vital for overall health and using mouthwash after each meal reduces the incidence of tooth decay, plaque buildup and other gum problems.

BirdTagger automates putting rings on wild birds

StartupRealities No 47 BirdTagger is a producer of automated bird ringing equipment installed on bird feeders. The bird-tagger fastens a band or ring around a bird's leg while it is feeding or resting at a feeder, without the need for catching the wild bird. The company participates in large-scale scientific studies and some military research projects. TECHNOLOGY BirdTagger uses sets of dozens of tension springs installed on the rim of a bird feeder on which birds step while feeding. The activation mechanism resembles that of a mouse trap: the weight of the bird's leg on the rim releases a single spring, which wraps around the bird's leg and clasps tightly on both ends to form a sealed ring or band . The spring-based ring contains an RFID tag that responds to signals from transponders on the ground. The rim mechanism can sense when a bird already has an RFID ring installed and does not release a new spring on birds that have already been banded. The metal spring in the...
