What are pest commercial requirements for companies in the UK?
Commercial pest control generally refers to a ‘regular’ pest control treatment and inspection carried out by a qualified ‘inspector’ to commercial premises such as food outlets and various types of business premises. The ‘essence’ of commercial pest control is ‘prevention’ or as is more commonly refered to knowadays as “Integrated Pest Management” or IPM for short. As business in general has become more market led and the consumer closer to its heart, the risk of health and safety issues has never been greater to the successful retailer/supplier to end users. Particularly to food related enterprises. As the food safety act 1990 stipulates, any company not found to demonstrate ‘due diligence’ in the eyes of the law can expect to face serious concequences.
