How can such small pests be such big problems? This question is asked by healthcare providers everywhere. If you own and operate your healthcare facility and do not know about the dangers pests can pose to your patients, today is your day to learn. Let’s jump right in with what problems you can expect from pests around your facility along with the reason professional pest control is right for you.
What Pests Affect Health Care Facilities?
One vital part of running a successful healthcare facility is keeping things clean. This job is made more difficult when pests are crawling around. Pests like cockroaches, rats, and mice are all prime suspects for spreading bacteria, pathogens, and parasites. If bugs are crawling through your patients’ rooms at night, or over sterile equipment, they put your whole facility at risk.
One pest that is common in healthcare facilities is bed bugs. These tiny blood-sucking pests can be difficult to identify due to their incredible hiding skills. The only time they come out of hiding is late at night when all of your patients have gone to sleep and they can feed without being spotted. We don’t have to explain to you why this is bad.
At the end of the day, your job is to do everything in your power to get and keep your patients healthy. Pests threaten this goal. Fortunately, there are professional services available to ensure your healthcare facility gets and stays pest-free.
How Pest Control Can Help You Save People
At Big Blue Bug Solutions we have seen firsthand how dangerous and problematic pests can be. For this reason, we have created effective and trustworthy solutions designed to keep healthcare facilities like yours pest-free. What would services from us look like for your facility? Let us break it down for you.
Initial Service Visit
To start, one of our friendly pest control technicians will inspect your business property for pests and pest pressures. If any pest problems are identified, they will put in place treatments to eliminate them. After this, they will apply a protective barrier, designed to keep pests out, around the perimeter of your healthcare facility. This treatment will last for a few months before retreatment is needed.
Monthly Maintenance
After we have done our initial service visit, we will revisit your facility once a month. By doing this we can monitor potential pest pressures and re-apply treatments as needed. This service is crucial to ensure your facility has the best chance possible to remain pest-free, year-round.
Barcoding System
Our Bar Code Monitoring System works in compliance with USDA, FDA, and AIB regulation requirements. With this, we also provide detailed reports specifying when services were applied, what pest activity was found on your property, materials used during service visits, and conducive conditions that require corrective action. We do all of this to cover all of your bases so you can see how your pest control investment is working for you.
