Common Pests To Watch Out For In Your Manufacturing Facility
Carpet Beetles

Carpet beetles are pests associated with fabrics hence they are common in leather or fabric manufacturing facilities. These pests like to lay their eggs in carpets, furs, wool, leather, and animal carcasses, all of which may be brought into your facility to be processed. This may make it more difficult for operations and facilities managers to recognize a potential infestation in the making.
Silverfish

Though silverfish may not pose a threat to your visitors or employees, these pests can damage finished products and packaging at your commercial manufacturing facility. This is because they feed on sugars and carbohydrates, so they will eat a variety of different sources from cereals or other food products in lunch areas to books, wallpaper, insulation, clothing, tissue, newspaper and even cardboard.
This varied diet can make it difficult to truly contain the issue within your manufacturing facility, and may require the assistance of a professional pest control company. Your local Orkin Canada branch would be happy to assist you with any pest related matters including silverfish, contact us today to learn more!
Cloth Moths
Cloth moths can be common in fabric manufacturing facilities that handles natural animal fiber or interwoven with plant fiber. This is because these pests derive nourishment from keratin protein found in animal fiber, especially in clothing made from, silk and wool fabrics as well as furs.
This diet can create serious implications for operations and facilities managers. Having your fabric manufacturing or hide processing facility invaded by these pests, may result in damage to both finished products and raw fabrics.
Rodents

Mice and rats can be a threat year-round for any manufacturing facility, but activity indoors often increases when fall and winter weather start rolling in. Once inside, rodent populations can grow rapidly, contaminate raw materials and transmit potentially harmful diseases throughout your commercial manufacturing facility.
Rats and Mice can also damage walls and gnaw on wiring for equipment, creating a potentially safety risk for your employees in the process. This in turn can also create operational disruptions and delays that could result in lost revenue.
Psocids
Some species of psocids are wingless and can be quite common inside paper and fabric manufacturing facilities. Though psocids rarely damage manufacturing facility property or harm employees, they can contaminate and consume raw materials and finished products.
Psocids usually feed on molds, fungi and other starchy material, including glue from bookbindings. Their diet could have an immediate impact on paper or fabric manufacturing facilities if an infestation is not caught early, as these pests can cost facility operators revenue when trying to replace contaminated materials.
