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.
Inspection
To ensure we provide the best customer experience, we will start with a conversation and a comprehensive inspection where we will evaluate all areas of your business, from the inside to the outside and all critical areas in between. The common areas of concern are checkout areas, over and understock, endcaps, breakrooms, bathrooms, and auxiliary storage. We will also ask about your storage processes along with shipping and receiving protocols.
This inspection will allow us to understand your operating procedures, products sold, product rotation, and identify potential pest pressures. We can then create your unique scope of service.
Treatment
The treatment provided for your retail store will be uniquely tailored to your needs based on the inspector’s scope of service. The general treatment will consist of a thorough exterior treatment, and a proactive interior treatment of break rooms, common areas, interior doors, storage areas, and bathrooms. For food retailers (including pet food) a more in-depth treatment may be necessary to gain greater control over specific food pests. No matter what form of retail store we encounter, we have the ability to treat correctively and proactively for your unique environment. Upon completion of the service, the service professional will communicate their findings and treatment to the designated point of contact.
