WHY IS PEST CONTROL STILL IMPORTANT DURING COVID-19?

by Modern Pest Services

Unfortunately for business owners and the economy in general, many businesses have had to close or severely alter how they operate during the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic to help flatten the curve and stop the spread of the virus.One thing that hasn’t changed is the presence of pests. They’re still out there, still trying to get into our homes and businesses.

And just because a business is temporarily closed doesn’t mean it’s vacant. Modern Pest is here to help!

Pest Control Remains Essential

The pest control industry was declared essential by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security on March 19, 2020 because it provides services that are necessary to maintaining the safety, sanitation, and essential operation of residences and businesses. At Modern Pest, we agree that pest control is an essential service. A world without pest control would have more disease, more food shortages and hunger, and uncontrollable living conditions. So how could pests affect your business during the new normal, and how can Modern help you get through it?

“Many businesses had to suddenly close their doors when stay-athome orders were issued. This means that important sanitation steps may have been missed.”

Many businesses had to suddenly close their doors when stay-at-home orders were issued. This means that important sanitation steps may have been missed. Restaurants are especially vulnerable to this because of food and food waste like grease being overlooked. Hotels have similar issues due to food left in guest rooms and onsite restaurants. In addition to food and water, pests also search for warmth and shelter inside structures. Some of the most common pests businesses will have to deal with during the pandemic are rats, mice, cockroaches, and flies.
