Mosquito control systems and a 20% tax credit
How to free yourself from mosquitoes by taking advantage of the tax benefits of Italy's Industry 4.0 plan
New year, same old problems!
The mosquitoes which infest our gardens every summer are nothing new. They’ve been a problem since the days of yore, a bit like taxes: they keep us up at night and get us where it really hurts.
But is this long-standing torment truly inevitable? And what if we could eliminate it, perhaps even managing to save a bit of money? In this article, we’ll discover a tax credit for professionals and companies that want to install an innovative and hi-tech outdoor mosquito control system.
BENI 4.0: this Italian tax credit also applies to automatic mosquito control systems for gardens
For a few years now, however, thanks to Budget Law 160/2019, both problems are easy to resolve (taxes and mosquitoes, that is) with a simple spray of a nozzle. But let’s start from the beginning and see what tax credits this law actually includes.
With the updates of the Budget Law of 2019, a tax credit of up to 20% was introduced for investments in new material goods connected to Italy’s Industry 4.0 plan and carried out in 2023, with the credits spread out over 5 years.
In other words, by taking advantage of said tax credit, it is possible to recoup 20% of the initial investment through a tax break which is divided into 5 annual instalments.
The many categories of goods which can be included in the tax concession include the innovative automatic mosquito misting systems from DAZ System, which fall into the BENI 4.0 category. This category is defined by law as “instrumental goods whose functioning is controlled by computerized systems and/or managed through appropriate sensors and controls”.
DAZ System mosquito control systems: 4.0 technology for professionals
One thing to keep in mind when talking about Italy’s Industry 4.0 programme is that it applies exclusively to certain categories of professionals and companies—those who truly benefit in terms of performance or productivity from the purchase of new technology.
When it comes to mosquito control systems, for example, it doesn’t make much sense to talk about Industry 4.0 or tax concessions for private citizens who purchase the mosquito control system for their private gardens. After all, private use doesn’t result in an actual boost in performance.
However, specific professionals such as pest controllers or installers will benefit. To them, an automatic mosquito control system which can be programmed remotely and which is technologically advanced (like those from DAZ System) improves the efficiency of their everyday work.
And indeed, the DAZ System control unit is innovative in a few different ways:
- It can be programmed directly on the machine or remotely via a web app, with different settings depending on the time of year. It is thus ideal for optimizing the use of insecticide and lowering management costs.
- It also can be programmed according to the weather: connecting the control unit to the weather report means automating its operation according to the weather each day (wind and rain), without having to install special sensors. This helps prevent insecticide from being used unnecessarily.
- It electronically blends the mixture, which is faster, more precise and more efficient than traditional hand mixing. It also optimizes the amount of product used in each misting operation and also streamlines mixing times, thereby simplifying the work of the end user.
By automating the traditional systems used for fumigation and spraying, the automated mosquito misting system by DAZ System makes it possible to use a minimal amount of insecticide (1/100th of that normally used by a classic fumigator). Aside from benefits in terms of efficacy, this means clear gains also in terms of efficiency, making it, without a shadow of a doubt, a 4.0 tool pursuant to the Italian Budget Law.
The ability to use a web app to remotely manage the DAZ System control unit and to set the operation of each one of its parts is another point in favour of increased efficiency.
Through the web application, the system can send both the user and the installer alerts due to the lack of water in the system’s tanks, broken hoses, and other types of malfunctions. This makes restoration of the system to optimal working conditions even faster.
Tax relief even for businesses with a garden
In addition to the professional categories listed above (which operate directly in the pest control industry), there are other types of businesses which can benefit from the 4.0 tax concessions linked to automatic mosquito control systems.
For those who own restaurants, pizzerias, cafés, farmhouse inns, night clubs, hotels and any other type of business with a garden or with outdoor spaces which can be used and enjoyed by their customers, installing an automatic mosquito misting system like those from DAZ System can effectively improve business operations.
To use outdoor spaces in summer without the annoyance caused by mosquitoes indeed means being able to welcome a greater number of customers, which has a clear impact on the business’s revenue.
