Safeguard Your Pharmaceutical Facility And Your Reputation

Sterilization, sanitization and pest prevention are the top three aspects for pest control in the pharmaceutical industry. The standards required are extremely high, and the consequences of a pest infestation can be severe. With pest activity in your facility, damage to the brands you work with, loss of customer trust and financial and legal implications associated with possible contaminated products are all possible. Orkin Canada takes an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) approach to help you comply with all major pharmaceutical pest control regulations and audit requirements including CFIA and BRC.

Common Pharmaceutical Pests

Pests in a pharmaceutical facility can be hiding anywhere, from the roof of your building to the tiniest cracks within your walls and floors. Even the pharmaceutical production process can attract wasps with the sweet scent it creates. It’s important to inspect your entrance and exit pathways as well as under eaves, windows and doors where pests can enter.
