Pest Control Services for Healthcare Facilities

We understand that healthcare environments require the highest level of cleanliness and safety. Designed for the strict standards of healthcare settings, our pest control services cover a wide range of needs, including:

  • Long-term care
  • Assisted Living Facilities

Pest control in healthcare requires a different approach than in other industries. Thatโ€™s why we use Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategies designed to prevent issues at the source. Instead of just addressing pests when they appear, we focus on eliminating the conditions that allow them to thrive. Hereโ€™s what you can expect from our process:

  • Inspections: Detailed inspections to locate possible pest entryways and nesting spots
  • Customized Plans: Tailored treatment strategies designed to meet your facilityโ€™s unique requirements and compliance standards
  • Discreet Service: Quiet, unobtrusive service that avoids disturbing patients and staff
  • Eco-Friendly Treatments: Environmentally-friendly treatment options with low toxicity for the health of everyone on-site
  • Ongoing Monitoring: Continuous monitoring and upkeep to keep pests from returning

Common Pest Problems in Healthcare Facilities

Healthcare facilities face a higher risk of pest infestations because of the steady movement of people, food, and materials entering and leaving the premises. Common pests we encounter and the problems they bring include:

  • Termites: Termites can damage wooden structures and furniture, indirectly affecting health by compromising the integrity of the facility.
  • Mosquitoes: Mosquitoes are vectors for diseases such as West Nile, Zika, and malaria.
  • Flies: Flies can spread disease and contaminate surfaces.
  • Ants: Ants can contaminate food and medical supplies, and some species can bite or sting.
  • Rodents: Rodents can enter through small openings, gnaw on wires and equipment, and spread disease.
  • Cockroaches: Cockroaches are attracted to food and moisture, can contaminate surfaces, and spread disease.
  • Bed Bugs: Bed bugs can be easily introduced by patients or visitors and can spread quickly throughout the facility.
