SelectaDNA
Help reduce the chance of burglary.
SelectaDNA is a theft deterrent system that has been proven to help reduce burglaries. A Police trial has proven that SelectaDNA has drastically helped reduce burglary rates. In the six months to 28 February 2010, burglary rates decreased by 61% within a trial area in Randwick Park, South Auckland, compared to the same period last year.*

Would you like a near invisible way to help protect your valuables?
SelectaDNA Forensic Property Marking kits are now available at BNZ Stores. They're the first of their kind in New Zealand, and use DNA technology to help deter crime and identify your property.
How it works
Each SelectaDNA kit is uniquely coded. There are microdots bearing a unique identification number, and the solution they come in contains Synthetic DNA. Using a microscope, the Police can read the microdots, which can help provide evidence of ownership. The SelectaDNA solution can also be forensically analysed using a sample the size of a pin-head. Once you've completed the registration process, you can apply SelectaDNA onto anything from a ring to a car and rest easy knowing that your property could be identified, and you're helping to deter crime.
For only $84.95, each SelectaDNA kit contains
1 x Bottle of SelectaDNA Solution with UV Tracer and Microdots- 1 x Stick applicator
- 1 x Pack of Warning stickers
- Instructions and Registration Form
- 1 x UV Keychain Light
- Enough SelectaDNA to mark at least 50 items
