Understanding effective pest management for warehouses
Pest control is a key part of health and safety compliance for businesses, whether you’re a restaurant, warehouse or office. Unfortunately, warehouses can attract insects, rodents and other pests, especially if there’s any form of food, warmth or shelter available.
Managing pest control safety for warehouses requires a proactive approach and methodical checks. Common warehouse pests include rats and mice, causing structural damage and contamination of goods. Birds can also be hard to get rid of due to high ceilings and hiding spots at this type of venue. Insects like cockroaches, flies, weevils and beetles can also be an issue, especially if there’s stored food.
The best solution for effective warehouse pest management is early detection, prevention and eradication.
Pest infestation signs in warehouses
During a warehouse pest audit, it’s important to understand the signs of a pest infestation at your site. This includes droppings and urine stains near food storage areas, gnaw marks, damaged goods, unpleasant odours, pest sightings reported by staff, nests and burrows, and insect larvae (especially with stored products that beetles and moths might like). If you notice these signs, act immediately. A professional pest controller can also help you identify common warehouse pest hotspots to prevent easy hiding places.
