Problems Caused by Pests in Food Processing Facilities

Food processing facilities tend to attract pests because they can be a rich source of food and moisture. Rodents, cockroaches, flies, ants and pantry pests << add links >> like weevils and grain beetles are among the pests we deal with most often at food processing facilities.

If you see signs of any of these pests at your facility, give our friendly exterminators a call right away. The potential dangers of a pest infestation in a food processing facility are considerable:

• Pests track in food-borne illnesses and disease
• Scratching and biting can result in damage to buildings, wiring, fixtures, and machinery–especially when it’s rodents you’re dealing with
  
• Contaminated food can be transported out before anyone notices the problem, leaving you with an expensive and embarrassing recall
• Increased maintenance costs due to frequent pest cleanup
