Answer quick risk questions
How Often Should Your Business Get Pest Control?
The right pest control frequency depends on your facility type, risk level, and pest history. Restaurants typically need weekly or bi-weekly service; offices may be fine with monthly. Under-servicing leads to infestations; over-servicing wastes money.
#
Frequency Guidelines by Facility Type
Restaurants and food service are high-risk. Weekly or bi-weekly service is standard due to constant food availability and regulatory scrutiny.
Warehouses and distribution centers depend on what's stored. Food-related warehouses need bi-weekly or weekly; general merchandise may need monthly.
Retail stores typically need monthly service unless there's food (grocery, convenience) or high pest pressure.
Offices usually need monthly service with more frequent treatments during seasonal pest spikes (spring, fall).
Multi-family apartments need monthly perimeter treatment with on-call interior service for unit complaints.
#
What Should Increase Frequency
Recent pest sightings mean you need more attention, not less. Increase frequency until activity is controlled.
Dumpster proximity to the building increases rodent pressure. Weekly service may be warranted.
Poor sanitation or structural issues create ongoing invitation for pests. Higher frequency compensates (but fixing root causes is better).
