Pests can invade any business, regardless of its nature. These unwelcome intruders don’t discriminate when it comes to finding a place to thrive. As long as there’s warmth, food, water, and a safe spot to breed, they can infiltrate any office. Common pests such as bed bugs, rodents, spiders, cockroaches, flies, and occasional invaders can cause havoc in your workplace.
The presence of pests in your office environment can have distressing effects on your staff and create discomfort for your customers. It can lead to decreased productivity, increased absenteeism, higher medical costs, and reduced profits. Additionally, pests like termites can cause extensive damage to your structures and buildings, while rodents can wreak havoc on computer equipment and electrical wiring.
At Eradika Pest Control, we understand the importance of maintaining a pest-free environment for your business. Our office pest control services utilize an integrated approach that focuses on extermination, prevention, and the elimination of pest attractants from your business premises.
Identifying Pest Issues in Offices
Pests can enter your office through various entry points. For instance, the front entrance with constantly opening doors becomes a common access point for pests. Smaller pests like cockroaches can easily infiltrate your business through wall cracks, establishing their homes inside. Bedbugs, on the other hand, can hitch a ride on deliveries and new stock, finding their way into your office space.
Controlling Cockroaches in Offices
Cockroaches are particularly despised pests that often infest offices in the Philippines. The tropical climate and readily available food in pantries make offices an attractive breeding ground for these resilient creatures. Cockroaches in the Philippines are relatively larger compared to their counterparts in other parts of the world. Once they find their way into your business, managing or getting rid of them without professional help can be quite challenging.
To effectively control cockroaches in your office, a thorough inspection is crucial. This helps determine the specific cockroach species and the level of infestation you’re dealing with.
Gel baiting is a highly effective method employed by our experts. They apply small bait dots in cracks, areas frequented by cockroaches, and near their harborage. The dosage of bait applied depends on the level of infestation. When cockroaches come into contact with the bait, they carry it back to their source, infecting the entire colony.
Residual spraying is another effective technique we use. Using an environmentally safe and highly efficient solution, we spray targeted areas to control the pests. This treatment also acts as a chemical barrier, protecting your office from future pest problems.
Rodent Control in Offices
Office spaces inadvertently provide shelter and food sources for rodents. These intelligent creatures quickly adapt to any environment and will happily feed out of waste bins. Besides scaring off your clients, rodents pose health hazards and cause property damage.
Prevention is key when it comes to controlling rodents in offices. Taking proactive measures to keep them away from your business is the most effective approach. This includes minimizing food and water sources and sealing all possible entry points.
Our experts employ various methods to control rodents in your office space. Rodent traps are stealthily designed to fit in activity areas, equipped with monitors that indicate when a rodent is trapped. The pests are then disposed of humanely. Tamper-resistant bait stations are also utilized, as they are highly attractive to rodents. These bait stations trap and kill the pests upon consumption, while ensuring that non-target pests cannot access the bait.
Ant Control in Offices
Ants, though small, can cause significant damage to your business. They can build nests on structures or equipment, leading to costly repairs. Additionally, ant bites can be painful and cause allergic reactions in some individuals. Infestation of packed items or food supplies can also be problematic.
Our experts conduct a thorough survey of your premises to identify the exact type of ants and their source. Protection and prevention are integral parts of our ant control solution for your office.
Gel baiting is used as a spot treatment, employing a highly effective ant attractant with non-repellent active ingredients. This treatment is applied in areas with ant activity and along ant pathways. When ants come into contact with the bait, they carry it back to the nest, infecting the rest of the colony.
Residual spraying is also employed, using an environmentally safe treatment sprayed on targeted areas to exterminate ants and provide continued protection.
Fly Control in Offices
Flies can be a nuisance in any business premises, particularly attracted to warm conditions and readily available food. They often infest office pantries, contaminating uncovered food items.
If flies have infested your office, our experts will identify their source and the factors encouraging the infestation. We offer safe and effective treatment options, including:
Granule treatments involve strategically placing carbon bait boxes in areas frequented by flies, such as around sinks and cabinets. The flies consume the bait and subsequently perish.
Residual spraying utilizes a safe pesticide solution directly sprayed on areas where flies are frequently found, effectively eliminating them and preventing re-infestations.
To further enhance fly control, we strategically position advanced units such as light traps and baited traps. These traps attract and capture flies, ensuring complete extermination.
Other Pest Problems in Offices
Occasional infestations may include lizards and booklice that may infrequently find their way into your office, at different stages of their life cycles. While they typically live outside and won’t complete their life cycle indoors, they can still cause trouble for your employees and clients, as well as spread diseases.
Preventing these unusual pest problems is crucial. Repairing structural damages and sealing cracks and gaps can effectively keep them out. The methodologies and techniques used to control these mostly harmless pests vary based on the environment and can be determined through phone or on-site consultation.
