METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CONTROLLING AND ELIMINATING PESTS comprising a plurality of traps fitted with data processing means, arranged in a given coverage area, said traps comprising specific traps for rodents, specific traps for flying insects and specific traps for crawling insects. The data processing means include animal presence sensors, means for processing the information provided by said sensors and means for communicating the information, as well as power supply means. According to another feature of the invention, the traps in a given area are controlled by a master station that oversees operation of said "slave" traps, via said information communication means. The aforementioned coverage area of a master station may include different types of slaves, i.e. a single area may simultaneously include specific traps for rodents, specific traps for flying insects and specific traps for crawling insects, since the identifying code of the slaves indicates the type of pest the trap is used for.
