Common Pests in Food Processing Facilities
Some of the most common types of pests in food processing facilities in Houston, TX include:
- Cockroaches – These unsanitary insects carry bacteria that can cause multiple human illnesses. You don’t want them anywhere near your equipment, inputs or finished products.
- Rodents – Like cockroaches, rodents can carry bacteria that can cause serious illnesses in humans.
- Birds – The high ceilings and roofs of food processing facilities can make an appealing place for birds to nest. We’ll humanely remove them and relocate them away from your facility.
- Pantry Pests – Also sometimes called “Stored food pests”, these insects eat cereal grains and other stored foods.
- Ants – Some species of ants are attracted to sweetened food products that contain sugar.
