The sight of a cockroach is repulsive to both employees and patrons of a business, particularly in the food service industry. Unfortunately, these pests are consistently seeking out food and water, making restaurants and food preparation centers especially vulnerable to population explosions. These methods can help limit the risk of American Cockroach infestation at your business.
Proper Sanitation
Like most other pests, the American Cockroach requires three necessities for life. These factors include water, food and safe shelter. In order to prevent or eradicate an infestation, proper sanitation methods must be followed. This includes discarding old food properly, fixing any leaks that may be present and removing hiding spots, like cardboard boxes.
Limit Entry
American Cockroaches can enter even the smallest cracks of your Oklahoma business. For this reason, proper exclusion methods must be in place to avoid potential infestation. Ensure any cracks have been filled with caulk. Mesh screens can also be used on windows, drains and ventilation to limit hiding spots for these pests.
