Hospitals and Medical Facilities

Whether you operate a hospital, nursing home, clinic, or private-practice medical or dental office, you know the importance of good sanitation. You make sure that your facility is cleaned, scrubbed, and sanitized until it shines.

And then one day, you see a roach, or a mouse, or some other pest. Or worse yet, one of your patients sees it. And you get that sinking feeling. You wonder how in the world the filthy creatures ever came from -- and how you will ever get rid of them.

 

Don't worry. We can help.

Pest control in medical facilities is a challenge. Many pests, such as roaches and mice, vector serious diseases and have no place in a healthcare facility. But we also want to minimize the use of chemical pesticides whenever possible. Controlling pests in a medical facility requires a thoughtful, comprehensive approach that attacks pest problems with surgical precision, not all-out chemical warfare.

Economy Pest Control's pest management program for hospitals and medical facilities is based upon the following time-proven principles:

 

• Prevention of pest populations through ongoing inspection and monitoring of your facility for conditions conducive to pest infestation.

• Correction of these conditions when they are discovered. Corrective actions may include such simple steps as caulking cracks around lab sinks and other plumbing fixtures, installing a door sweep to keep pests from slipping in underneath, repairing window screens, etc.

• Use of non-chemical control measures, such as sticky traps, whenever practical.

• When needed, application of the least hazardous pesticides that are effective for the control of the identified pests, using precision application techniques that avoid exposure to patients or staff.
