Be Prepared to Treat Sensitive Accounts
Our expert team at Zoëcon® is committed to providing pest management professionals with the products, resources, and support they need to solve even the toughest insect infestations. It isn’t always the degree of infestation that makes a job tough – oftentimes it’s the location. Pest prevention is vital to any space people live and work in, but there are a number of locations that are considered particularly sensitive:
- Restaurants, cafeterias, or any other food-handling establishment
- Schools, daycares, libraries
- Nursing homes, hospitals, shelters
Pest prevention in these high-traffic, sensitive locations is a collaborative effort. Take a look at our list of tips to make sure your team is prepared to handle sensitive accounts:
- Properly identify pests: Flies, cockroaches, ants, spiders, bed bugs, and stinging insects are most commonly found in schools, daycares, libraries, and other sensitive locations. It is also important to remind your team to educate facility personal about proper pest identification and prevention to keep pest problems to a minimum.
- Encourage use of IPM programs: Your technicians should work closely with facility management teams to clean high-volume areas, move dumpsters away from buildings, inspect and properly seal cracks, crevices, holes, and door sweeps.
- Select the right product for the job: At Zoëcon®, we’ve developed a number of product solutions to help pest management professionals (PMPs) control insects and help eliminate the issues customers face. Take a look at a few of our products below that work particularly well for sensitive accounts.
