We all have come across many ways to deal with annoying colleagues at office; however the humans are not the only ones that we share our work space with. Pests can prove to be from little irritating to a big menace in your office. They invade your private space, distract you when trying to keep focus, get in to your food containers, spread diseases and cause an embarrassment during the middle of a client presentation.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

No matter how much you put your cleaning staff at task, pests infestation in office areas often go beyond control due to multiple factors, that needs addressing.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Food:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Yes, it is an understood fact that there isn\u2019t much cooking and food storage happening in your office as compared to in your home, but food still remains the major cause for pests to breed in there. Spilled crumbs and curries on the desks and floors, or greasy containers that leave residues behind make a perfect food for cockroaches and rodents. Dirty coffee mugs, uncleared lunch leftovers and forgotten banana also attractfruit flies.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Monitor Trash Bins<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Sadly but true, office is no ones\u2019 home, therefore, no one care any less to clear their garbage bins. Employees can dispose their fruit peels, drink cartons, food packaging, etc. all into the trash can under their desk which is usually never covered.\u00a0 The liquid residue makes a perfect breeding ground for small flies. Therefore, always ensure bins are cleared of trash every evening. Also, employees should be encouraged to not dispose wet garbage in the desk side bins.<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Human carriers<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Many a times, your employees themselves carry pests unknowingly on their clothing or in their bags from their homes, or public transports they travel in. Bed bugs are one such pest that travel places by clinging onto their hosts\u2019 clothing. In cases as these, the only way to fight the problem is by hiring a professional pest control agency to ensure timely monitoring and treatment.<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Natural light and air circulation<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Closed office environments, moisture from the air conditioning, and the dark corners in the pantry, washroom areas and under the desks,\u00a0 make the perfect breeding and surviving grounds for variety of pests. Therefore, ensuring good ventilation system, penetration of natural sunlight in your office can help you fight any early existence of pests\u2019 problem. Also, natural air circulation can eliminate odours from bins and carpets thus make your workspace less vulnerable for pest life.<\/p>\n

          The above methods can prove to be beneficial to fight early signs of pests such as ants, flies, bedbugs, rodents, cockroaches, spiders and lizrads, however incase the problem is larger than what it appears, you can employ a certified and expert pest control agency that can provide regular checks and maintenance to keep your workplace free of unwanted coworkers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
