IMPORTANCE OF PEST CONTROL IN FOOD INDUSTRY

Food naturally attracts pests. Therefore, the food industry is one of the most vulnerable sectors and is dependent on pest management to uphold its high standards of food safety. Pests are the carriers of a vast range of pathogenic bacteria, viruses, and other species. They pose a risk to customers’ health as well as that of the workers who process and handle food.

Pests can cause several serious threats, especially in a food facility. These threats include:

 

  • They spread disease: It is well known that a variety of pests can harm people. Several dangerous infections, including hantavirus and salmonellosis, can be spread by rodents.  Allergy and asthma problems can be exacerbated by cockroaches.
  • They damage property: Your equipment and other goods will be damaged by numerous pests. Examples of damage include chewing electrical cables and drilling holes through food containers, walls, and other objects, which can result in serious financial loss.
  • They contaminate food: Pests put customers’ and employees’ health in danger by contaminating both workstations and food products.
  • They can damage your reputation: A cockroach moving across the floor or flies in the kitchen would give people a bad image of how you manage food. When customers notice pests in your business, they will have less faith in you, and if word gets out, the health inspector may come to investigate you.
  • They can Lose your employees: The workers in a pest-infested kitchen may face danger. The pests may spread diseases to your workers, putting them at risk of getting sick. As a result, more workers will take time off, and you might finally run out of employees.
  • They can lead to the closure of your business: Your company could experience a temporary or permanent closure if you do not adequately address the pest infestation.
