Three Infestations That Can Threaten Your Business

When it comes to running a business, there just aren’t enough hours in the day to ensure that every aspect of its operations run smoothly. Small business owners and managers in large companies both have to be on guard for glitches and hiccups that could cause tens of thousands of dollars of damage if not handled quickly and properly.

An important threat that often doesn’t receive the attention it deserves is your organization’s pest control and prevention program. Here are three pests that can do serious damage to your business without the proper preventive measures in place.

Rodents

As long as human industry has existed, so have the mice and rats that thrive in commercial and industrial properties. Especially for companies and organizations that inhabit older buildings, rats and mice can pose significant problems. The situation is exponentially worse for companies in medical and food preparation sectors. Left unaddressed, these kinds of infestations can quickly get out of control, and all but halt your company’s day-to-day operations.

Mold

Not traditionally thought of as a ‘pest,’ mold can still pose a critical threat to your organization if not identified and remedied in short time. Especially for buildings with older HVAC and ventilation systems, mold can lead to no end of health problems for your employees if not addressed. JP Pest Services has extensive experience dealing with this problem, but the first step is having your property assessed and inspected thoroughly by one of our trained Service Professionals.

Flies

There’s nothing worse for the owner of a restaurant or medical services company than spotting a dozen flies swarming a dining area or trash bin on the premises. That goes doubly for customers and clients. An abundance of flies in a building isn’t an always a sure sign of a full-blown infestation, but in many instances it can be. And in those scenarios, you can guarantee that fly tape isn’t going to cut it.

For all these reasons and more, it’s important to be proactive in handling potential pest problems for your business or organization. Contact JP Pest Services today and find out how your business can benefit from a partnership with New England’s leading pest management  provider.
