Professional Pest Control For Your Food Processing Business

Food processing factories and warehouses are often an ideal food source for beetles, moths, cockroaches, ants, flies, mice, and rats. As a result, these pests can be difficult to eradicate – but the consequences of an infestation can be devastating for your business.

Many of these pests can chew through plastic and cardboard packing, damaging your products and contaminating them with disease causing organisms, droppings, and body parts. Inevitably, this can have long-term, serious consequences for your reputation, your finances, and your ability to operate.

Pests in any food processing or packaging facility must be eradicated immediately to avoid widespread damage, while at the same time, adhering to strict treatment protocols and thorough documentation.

To identify, design, implement, and maintain an effective pest management program as required by government regulations and third party certification standards, you need a professional pest control service, ideally backed by a team of entomologists, sanitarians, and food processing industry specialists.

Orkin Canada’s integrated pest management service is tailored to the unique needs of the food processing industry. We safeguard your business from financial losses caused by pests, comply with all food safety regulations, and offer the most effective pest control program available.
