Fruit flies

Fruit flies are drawn to fresh food products and this is often how they find their ways into restaurants. They often breed in wet organic materials, making them a source of irritation for many restaurants and bars. They can spread a range of foodborne illnesses, making them a food safety risk that businesses need to deal with. Got a problem with fruit flies? The EcoCare Pest Management team has the solution for you.

Rodents (rats and mice)

Rodents, such as rats and mice, enter properties through gaps as small as a pencil. They seek warm areas and food scraps, getting into bins to get food. The sight of a rodent around a restaurant can damage its reputation. Rat and mouse droppings present a food safety risk, and rodents can transmit over 35 diseases to humans, making it important to deal with them when spotted.

Large flies/house flies

Large flies, such as house flies, are drawn to rubbish, but they will also seek out other food sources inside and are a source of irritation to staff and customers alike. Flies can transfer pathogens and bacteria from rubbish areas to other areas used for food preparation, causing food safety risks. Their constant presence can also lead to frustration amongst staff.

Ants

Ants might be drawn to the server area as it is often close to outdoor dining spaces. Ants can be a bigger problem in the summer, but are often drawn to food sources offering easier access, such as food debris. Ants can give visitors the impression that a restaurant isn't clean and pose a food safety risk, which is why it is important to act.

Cockroaches

Cockroaches can enter restaurants through incoming goods and deliveries. Staff and guests may also unknowingly introduce them into the premises. These pests search for food and water, finding crevices in building structures to breed. Their search for sustenance results in droppings and bacteria, posing a food safety risk and potentially leading to foodborne illnesses. Spotted a cockroach?
