Pest Threats to the Food Industry
Stored product insects (SPIs) pose the biggest threat to food facilities. Businesses that handle cereals, grains or dry food products are potentially at risk.
These SPIs can infect items such as flour, rice, barley and dried fruits and nuts. There are many different species, from grain weevils to rust-red flour beetles that can damage raw materials and contaminate finished products - resulting in both product and financial loss.
Rodents can also contaminate food facilities. Our experts can advise on the use of appropriate monitoring or non-toxic systems in highly sensitive production and storage areas where the use of poisonous bait for rodent control is not permitted.
