When you run a hotel, keeping pests out of your facility is essential for staying compliant with health guidelines and building a good reputation with your customers. So which commercial pest control problems should you watch out for? As the team at RemTech in Saint Paul, MN, explains, there are some especially common hazards for commercial facilities.

Top 5 Commercial Pest Control Problems

1. Bed Bugs

For hotel owners, few pests are more dreaded than bed bugs. These pests can spread quickly, and as such, facility owners should regularly inspect furniture for signs of an infestation. Affected furniture will typically need to be removed, while thermal treatments can kill off the bugs themselves.

2. Flies

Hotel restaurants often attract flies. Flies carry disease and bother guests, hurting your reputation. Cleaning food preparation areas and keeping garbage containers shut will go a long way in preventing outbreaks.

3. Mice

Mice and rats often sneak into hotels and restaurants looking for food and shelter. They carry disease, bring fleas and other pests inside, and chew through electrical wires. Blocking potential entrances and commercial pest control will stop the problem in its tracks.

4. Stored Product Pests

This general term is used to describe beetles, moths, weevils, and other insects that will often infest dried food in storage. You can reduce the likelihood of an outbreak by cleaning storage areas regularly and disposing of older products.

5. Cockroaches

One of the most notorious pests, cockroaches are extremely difficult to get rid of on your own. Professional roach control is often needed, which uses a mix of traps, sprays, and chemical-free solutions. 

Don’t let mice, cockroaches, or other pests take over your business. With green methods and lack of large logos on their vehicles, RemTech will handle your commercial pest control without hurting your company’s reputation.
