Customer Experience: A pest infestation can severely impact your business’s reputation, resulting in negative reviews and a decline in customers.
Food Safety: Stringent food safety guidelines need to be adhered to by your business, and any pest infestation can lead to regulatory breaches and subsequent penalties.
Property Damage: Pests can inflict considerable damage to your property, such as gnawing through electrical cables, ruining insulation, and even causing structural damage.
Regulatory Compliance: Your hotel or food business is subject to rigorous health and safety regulations that necessitate maintaining an environment free from pests, with penalties for businesses that don’t comply.
Health and Safety: Pest infestations can create health and safety threats to both customers and staff, potentially resulting in legal disputes.
Business Efficiency: Pest infestations can disrupt the smooth functioning of your business, potentially leading to a decrease in staff productivity, loss of revenue, and even closures.
Seasonal Pest Activity: The prevalence of certain pests may increase during specific seasons, necessitating a shift in pest control strategies to accommodate.

We provide bespoke solutions to address the distinct requirements of your hospitality business so that you can maintain high standards, protect your reputation, and function efficiently.

Cockroaches: Cockroaches spread harmful bacteria by contaminating food and surfaces, and can seriously harm your business’s reputation.
Bed Bugs: These pests can cause discomfort and allergic reactions in guests from their bites, leading to negative reviews and reputation damage.
Flies: House flies and fruit flies can contaminate food and surfaces by landing on them, carrying dozens of pathogens that can cause diseases in humans.
Birds: Birds can cause property damage by nesting, and their droppings can pose health risks and become a nuisance for outdoor dining areas. We offer a comprehensive bird control service for hospitality businesses.
Stored Product Insects (SPIs): These include a variety of beetles, weevils, and mites that can infest food stores, leading to contamination and loss of stock.
