With the holiday season arriving, your business is sure to get plenty of packages to fulfill your customers’ needs. Shipments and deliveries will be expected in and out throughout the day, unfortunately putting your business at risk of a pest infestation. We break down how you can get prepared for commercial pest control before the packages start rolling in!
Know the Signs
Understanding the signs that your delivered packages are infested is the first step to prevention. Pests will often leave infestation signs outside and inside the package. Gnawing marks in the corner of cardboard boxes or containers is a well-known indicator of a rodent infestation. Other red flags include seeing egg cases, discarded wings, insect body parts, droppings, larvae, or the actual pest inside the package. If there is a pest inside a delivery, it is best to take the package outside and isolate it.
Prepare Your Staff
Ensuring that your team understands the signs of pests within packages and deliveries is another step in pest prevention. Educate them on the types of pests they could potentially see, how to inspect each delivery, and the procedures to take if they find an actual pest.
Always Tidy Up
For many businesses, shipments and packages will be delivered either at the front of the business or have a dedicated loading dock. With any unloading area, make sure that the space is always clean and uncluttered. Have the location frequently cleaned and prohibit any food or drinks to help avoid supplying the pests with a food source.
Dealing with an unexpected pest infestation is the last thing you want to do during the hustle and bustle of the holiday season. Ensure that your business has a pest plan in place to help prevent any pest problem that can ruin your reputation.

With any type of business, dealing with pests is bound to happen. Whether it’s just a few ants or an infestation of rats, every business owner wants to assure their customers that their business is healthy and well-maintained. Commercial pest control could be the perfect solution for your business and here we break down why.
Custom Plan for Each Business
A commercial pest provider can help establish a customized plan fit for any type of business. The size, location, and type of business are all taken into consideration when creating the perfect pest prevention plan. Each plan is designed to eliminate pests, all while protecting the health of your customers and team.
Continuous Monitoring
With regular inspections, pests can quickly be identified by your trained service professional. These professionals are trained to identify different signs various pests leave behind and can quickly provide an action plan to treat them.
Future Prevention
Dealing with current pests is always important but dealing with a future infestation is equally important to maintain the health of your overall business. Service professionals will not only deal with the pests currently infesting, but they will also locate any entry points pests can use to sneak into your business. They will properly seal and monitor those areas throughout.
Reputation is Protected
Having a pest control plan can give you the assurance you need that your reputation is upheld. With a customized plan for your business, it is less likely that your customers will encounter pest sightings, saving your business from bad reviews and fewer customers.
Commercial pest control is the perfect solution for business owners looking to keep the health of their customers, team, and business property top priority!
