The Crucial Link Between Hygiene Services and Effective Pest Control

Good hygiene and effective pest control go hand-in-hand; that’s a fact. One man’s trash is a pest’s treasure, and most of what we consider waste can be vital sources of food and shelter for pests. If you don’t have regular waste collection services or robust cleaning policies, you are at higher risk of developing infestations.
In this month’s blog, we will explore the hygiene services typically carried out by commercial pest control services and how these can
How Poor Hygiene Leads To Pests
Poor hygiene inside a property manifests in different ways. Neglecting to clean regularly, or deep clean all areas of the property regularly leads to the accumulation of food waste, dust, dander, or mould.
Even if a property is cleaned consistently, poor hygiene can still be a factor if waste is allowed to linger in an area for a long period of time before it is cleaned up. Businesses that choose infrequent waste collection services to save money are one of the most common causes of waste buildup at properties.
Invasive pests such as rodents, flies, and cockroaches have great senses of smell, able to detect sources of food at a great distance. Cockroaches and flies in particular are attuned to the smell of rotting and decaying matter, like that from bins, toilets, mouldy environments, and other unhygienic circumstances.
Personal hygiene is also important, not just for health and safety. Poor personal hygiene can also be very attractive to cockroaches, particularly the smell of sweat, dander, dirty laundry and even faeces.
These scents are like massive billboards to these pests, indicating that your property is a potential nesting location where they are likely to have plenty of food and are less likely to be discovered or disturbed.
