Pest infestations can be prevented by regular inspections and identifying potential harbourage areas. A proactive approach is key to preventing infestations in schools and education facilities.
Keeping food stored properly, sealing cracks and crevices, and addressing water leaks and standing water promptly are all preventative measures. In addition, staff, students, and parents must understand the importance of not bringing in outside food or clothing that may have been stored with food.
As a final step, we can enlist the help of a professional pest management team to ensure proper monitoring and treatment measures are implemented to prevent an infestation.
