Healthcare environments present their own challenges for Pest Control. Often patients are already vulnerable to infections and diseases, and the presence of Pests within such environments is unacceptable.
Unfortunately, Healthcare facilities are especially vulnerable to pest infestations because of round-the-clock activity and heavy traffic through multiple entrances. The storage, foodservice and laundry areas of hospitals and long-term care facilities can also become ideal breeding grounds for pests.
In some instances it is not possible or suitable for pesticides to be used around sick or elderly patients and alternative control measures may have to be used. At Urban Shield we use Integrated Pest Management programs to monitor and control Pests, as well as provide a service with quick response times to any reported Pest activity.
Failure to control Pests results in contamination from Pathogens and incurred Economic Costs
