Commercial Pest Control for Restaurants, Pubs and Bars
If you’re a food and beverage owner or manager, you understand the challenges of keeping your business free from pests. Hearts Pest Management can help. We have both organic and traditional methods for commercial pest control of restaurants, pubs, and bars. We treat insects, rodents, and even dumpsters. There are two contributing factors in pest management for restaurants and bars, sanitation and exclusion. Sanitation requires some team effort on part of the staff to keep floors and counters clean, especially in the evening before opening the next day. An exclusion is making sure any cracks and crevices are caulked and airtight to keep insects and rodents from making their way inside. Hearts Pest Management works with your staff by providing Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategies to prevent infestations. Our service professionals understand the behavior of insects and other pests in a commercial environment and will not only treat for but search out the cause of an infestation. Here are some of the pests Hearts can treat for in restaurants and other food and beverage facilities:- Drain flies and gnats
- Ants and spiders
- Water bugs
- Cockroaches
- Flies
- Rats and mice
- Flour beetles and pantry pests
Ant Control in the Food and Beverage Industry
Ants have become a major problem for food service facilities. A trail of ants usually leads to an outside source. Any tree limbs or plants that have grown to the point of touching the building gives ants easy access points that may be hard to see. Your Hearts service professional will provide monthly inspections and report any areas that may need clearing as well as gaps and cracks that may require a sealant. Certain ant species, like the invasive Argentine ant, are hard to control with do-it-yourself treatment methods. Most ant species have just one queen but Argentine ants have several queens. If one colony feels threatened, it sends away one of its queens to start another. The result is an even bigger infestation. Your Hearts Pest Management service professionals are experts at identifying different ant species treating accordingly.Treatment for Dumpsters
Dumpsters near your restaurant or pub, while a necessity, can be smelly and attract pests. Hearts treats dumpsters with an organic product that works as a deodorizer and eliminates insect breeding and harborage areas for pests. Rodent control is also important to consider for areas around the building and dumpster area. Rats and mice will make their home in piles of boxes and ot her debris in and around dumpsters. Training restaurant and bar staff to keep areas around doors free of clutter and properly dispose of trash, especially food, helps prevent infestations.Combating Flies
When customers have to bat flies away from their food, it’s not only unhealthy but makes for a horrible experience. Controlling flies requires good sanitation by eliminating food sources and breeding sites: proper disposal of food wastes and periodic cleaning of trashcans and dumpsters. Equipment such as a paraclipse, installed and maintained by a Hearts service technician, is also an option for controlling flies. A paraclipse uses light and pheromones to attract flies and traps them whereas a bug zapper blows flies to bits and pieces, scattering their remains all over whatever lies in the vicinity.Rats and Mice
Rodents, yikes! Imagine the look on a patron’s face when they see a mouse scurry across the dining room floor! All restaurants, pubs, and bars have to deal with rodents but there are certain steps owners can take to keep from having a major infestation.Monthly Rodent Inspections
Your Hearts service professional will inspect inside and out of the building on a monthly basis and provide suggestions for keeping mice and rats from coming indoors. Treatment may include trapping and exclusion (blocking off entry points) and monthly rodent baiting on the outside of the facility. Whether you are having problems with rodents or insects in your restaurant and/or bar, Hearts Pest Management can help. Our service technicians are professionals. Each technician is EcoWise Certified for organic applications. We practice IPM on a daily basis to ensure infestations are kept at bay, while at the same time, minimizing any impact on the environment.
