Pest Control for Retail

Retail establishments often have similar concerns in terms of operating hours and access. That said, there are differentiating factors with retail, such as where products are made, stored, and transported from; amount of foot traffic through the building; and rate of product turnover.

All retail stores must have a unique scope of service based on the products being sold. Retailers have the most varied forms of pest pressure, which may include roaches, ants, beetles, moths, flies, and a wide variety of other pests. The key factor in properly maintaining a pest-free environment in a retail store is to understand the environment, conditions conducive, storage, and products sold.

Each Retail Precision Protection program starts with a complete inspection of your space, top to bottom.

As retail products may be delivered and transported from a variety of locations, the originating location for all products should be noted as it can factor into the types of pests that may threaten retail facilities. Foot traffic is also a huge concern—mainly for the transfer of pests, such as bed bugs. In fact, in the last few years, major retailers have experienced bed bug infestations, driving them into the national media and social media spotlight while also forcing them to close their doors temporarily to treat these problems.
