Coming into the fall season, pests begin to seek shelter from the coming winter months. In general, your office space, where you work, will generally be clean and clear of pests, winter or summer. But just like every household, pests target areas where there is food and water pest are eyeing it to move in. That means, in an office scenario, the cafeteria or the break room are prime pest magnets. If there is ever going to be a pest problem in your office, here is where it will all begin.
Cleaning is the Best Prevention
In any situation, if there is nothing to eat or drink, pests will go elsewhere. That’s why cleaning is so important. Food crumbs, grease spots, spills, and even leftover dishes in the sink or on tables, are all invitations that the food bell has rung and it’s time to eat. Once pests invade and become a breeding colony, no matter what type of pest it is, they will be incredibly difficult to eradicate. But, if you don’t give them an opportunity to nourish and flourish, they just won’t stick around.
