Introducing new equipment to your manufacturing plant often means introducing new policies, procedures and training for your employees. If you fail to consult with your pest management professional, it may also introduce new challenges with pest pressures in your facility.
With the installation of new machinery, it’s critical that you think ahead about how you will keep it clean on a daily basis. You’ll need to have easy access underneath, in the cracks and crevices between walls and storage and to the working parts within the equipment, too. Your pest management professional can help you save time and future trouble by giving you tips on how to avoid the moist and sheltered environments where pests like to gather. This consultation should be part of your current Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program.
