Businesses That Need Pest Control

Updated: Oct 7

Although every building and business could use pest control for different reasons, there are certain businesses that must have pest control measures, or they wouldn’t be able to operate.

 

  • Grocery stores are some of the businesses that need pest control the most. There is a large accessibility of open food sources, and trash. Food lures pests in the most, so it is crucial that grocery stores keep their buildings clean and protected with pest control.


  • Gas stations typically also have large abundances of food that pests might want. Gas stations usually have spills in their parking lots and by gas pumps, they have lots of people coming in and out all day, and pests can pose safety hazards by damaging electrical wiring and contaminating food.


  • Nail salons are unique because they don’t have the typical things people would think of for needing pest control. Nail salons use a lot of chemicals, and surprisingly, the chemicals let off odors that attract bugs. Lots of nail clippings and skin particles are in nail salons, which also attracts pests. Due to the large amount of water usage, nail salons are moisture-rich environments that draw in pests and mold.


  • Hotels have lots of people coming in and out all day, while carrying luggage. A guest could unknowingly bring in a pest through luggage or clothes. Some hotels will provide breakfast, which will entice pests to come. Hotels typically have more than one story, or more than one building, which provides lots of opportunity for pests to hide. Hotels also usually have storage rooms full of towels and bedding, which certain pests can have an attraction.


  • Restaurants have a large amount of food that is to be cooked or is being cooked. Pests are always drawn in by food. Restaurants also provide a large amount of food waste, which will draw more pests to their outdoor dumpsters. Kitchens have lots of moisture from cooking or dishwashing, which will draw in rodents or mold. Restaurants are always being cleaned, but spills and grease can accumulate in hard-to-get-to places, which can provide food to pests.



 

Regularly scheduled pest control is the best way for businesses to not have any disruptions to their operations and to stay ahead of potential pest invasion issues.
