Comprehensive Commercial Drain Care: Keeping Your Business Protected Against Pests

Clogged or improperly maintained drains are not only a hassle to deal with, but can also attract pests and impact your business’ reputation. Orkin Canada’s commercial drain care solutions are designed to keep your plumbing in top condition while protecting your business from pest infestations.

How Orkin Canada’s Commercial Drain Care Service Protects Your Business

Orkin Actizyme^®

To ensure your facility’s drains are properly maintained, your Orkin Pro will apply Orkin Actizyme^® to effectively clean your drains. This is a biological cleaning product that contains active bacteria, enzymes and surfactants to break down organic materials inside your drains.

The application of Orkin Actizyme^® helps dissolve grease and grime build-up and control odour-causing bacteria underneath drains. The use of Orkin Actizyme^® is versatile and can be incorporated into your facility’s sanitation schedule via a multi-purpose cleaner or via a dosing system.

Floor Drain Trap Seal

When trying to prevent pests and odours from spreading inside your facility, your Orkin Pro may utilize floor drain trap seals. These devices are inserted into your drain and act as one-way flapper valves that allow water to flow through, while preventing odours and insects from coming out of your commercial drains.

Drain Foaming

Drain foaming is a process where a foaming compound is used to deliver pest control treatments deep inside the drains. The foam spreads out and sticks to the surfaces, making sure the treatment reaches all areas, even the ones that are hard to access. This method helps ensure pests are effectively treated and prevents new infestations, providing thorough protection for your drains.

How Commercial Drain Care Protects Your Business Reputation

Reduces Odours Caused by Build-up in Drains

Unpleasant odours can be distracting to staff and can drive customers out the door. A regularly maintained drain sanitation schedule ensures that foul odours from improper drain care are effectively prevented.

Reduces Stress On Drainage System

Improper drain care can put unnecessary stress on your drainage systems resulting in blockages and expensive maintenance costs. With Orkin Canada’s professional drain care service, you can ensure your drains are diverting wastewater efficiently, while also seeing cost savings from reduced drain maintenance.

Reduces Pest Entry Into Facilities Through Drain Systems

Pests, such as drain flies and cockroaches, can create an unsanitary environment for both your staff and customers. Pests are not only a nuisance, but they can also potentially carry and transmit dangerous pathogens that may make your customers and staff ill. Through the use of pest control drain care solutions, your local Orkin Pro will help you prevent pests in drains.

Protects Brand Image By Helping To Ensure A Hygienic Facility

Foul odours and constant pest infestations from drains can create a negative perception of your business and may impact your business’ ability to pass health and safety audits. Orkin Canada’s commercial drain care service can ensure your drains make the grade and do not have customers and staff running for the door.

The Role of Regular Drain Maintenance in Pest Control

• Regular cleaning of drains and pipes is crucial to addressing buildup and preventing small flies.
• Addressing drain issues alongside other pest control measures, such as fly control, will help provide comprehensive protection.
• Help customers understand that drain care is an ongoing process, and without regular treatment, it can quickly lead to unwanted odours and pest infestations.

Common Pests Found in Drains: What Businesses Need to Know

Small Flies

Organic build-up inside commercial drain systems can create an ideal environment for small flies, such as drain flies and fruit flies, to thrive. The presence of these pests can indicate unsanitary conditions, potentially leading to larger infestations.

Cockroaches

Cockroaches can often access buildings via drains, as these pests are attracted to moisture and organic debris. Once inside, these pests can create serious issues for any commercial business.
