We’re Your Dedicated Partner In Food Industry Pest Control
Pest control in the food industry is essential, especially when it comes to adhering to third-party audits and other regulatory requirements. Pests can cause major disruptions in the food processing/manufacturing industry, including issues in operations, damaging machinery and contaminating food products – costing you time and money in downtime and repairs. Not to mention putting your reputation and bottom line at risk. From food preparation to packaging, we understand the importance of maintaining high-level safety, health and sanitary measures so your food processing plant or factory is always compliant with industry regulations. Ensuring everything (and everyone) is safe is your top priority. And it’s ours, too.
For effective pest control in food processing plants, our Orkin Pros offer comprehensive solutions that go beyond reactive pest control measures. They specialize in preventative treatments and protection measures through our tailored Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program. This process involves a thorough assessment of potential vulnerabilities and pest hotspots, frequent inspections and exclusion methods designed to keep your food plant professionally protected.

Common Food Processing Pests
Every food processing facility may be built differently, but they all share common pest entry points. Roofs, ventilation intakes, windows and doors, dock plates and floor drains are all potential places where pests can hide, breed and nest. Pests can also hide within trucks and packages, making inspections for outgoing and incoming shipments even more important.
