Restaurant Pest Control Requirements

Pests can cause problems in any industry, but especially in food service. From the first signs of pests in your building, it is important to take action to prevent:

  • Reputational damage: Visible pests can harm your reputation. They can lead to poor reviews, customer loss, and a tarnished image.

  • Food contamination: Flies, cockroaches, and rodents are common pests within the food service industry. These pests can carry harmful bacteria and pathogens, contaminating food and surfaces food is prepared on. This could include e. coli, salmonella and more.

  • Food waste: Potential food contamination can lead to spoilage, increasing food waste and causing financial loss.

  • Health code violations: The food service industry adheres to strict health regulations. The presence of pests can result in non-compliance, leading to fines, temporary closures, or permanent shutdowns, depending on the severity of the problem.

  • Structural damage: Pests, such as rodents, can cause structural damage to properties. They can gnaw through wiring, walls, and packaging, leading to costly repairs to prevent safety hazards to your customers and staff.

Pests in the Foodservice Industry

Insect Treatment

Flies, cockroaches, and ants present a food safety risk. They can feed on food debris and residue, spreading foodborne illnesses. Take steps now to eliminate and deter insects from your business with effective pest control solutions tailored to your needs.

Rodent Control

The burrowing nature of mice and rats means that restaurants may have to deal with these pests. They can enter through tiny gaps in search of food and warmth. The risk they pose to your customers is significant, making pest control services vital.

Cleaning Services

A sterile and pest-free environment is important. Our professional cleaning services ensure that potential contaminants, such as droppings, are dealt with effectively. This ensures you meet health and safety requirements and retain your professional status.

Will pest removal for restaurants be disruptive to my customers?

The last thing any restaurant owner or business manager wants is for pest control companies to disrupt the customer experience. We offer discreet, non-intrusive services and aim to schedule outside of peak business hours to minimise disruption. Many of our pest prevention methods are subtle, ensuring minimal visibility to your customers.

How often should pest control be done in a restaurant?

Restaurants are more prone to pest infestations than other businesses, which is why it is important to conduct regular inspections of the property. We recommend a monthly inspection to identify potential pest problems before they turn into significant infestations. Our pest control contracts give you the reassurance that someone will be there when you need them most.
