Pest Control Solutions for Warehousing & Logistics
Protecting Goods, Preserving Safety, and Ensuring Operational Continuity
Major Pest Problems in Warehousing & Logistics
Warehouses and distribution centers play a vital role in supply chains—storing large volumes of goods, often for extended periods. These facilities face unique pest challenges due to:
- Wide-open entry points, like loading docks, roll-up doors, and ventilation systems
- Constant movement of goods, making it easy for pests to enter unnoticed.
- Food and non-food storage, which can attract various types of pests.
- Cluttered or high-stacked storage, providing ideal hiding places for infestations.
A pest problem in a warehouse can lead to major consequences
- Product contamination and spoilage
- Delays in shipments and operations
- Rejection of goods by retailers or customs
- Loss of trust from clients or supply chain partners
Major Pest Problems in Warehousing & Logistics
Rodents (Rats & Mice)
Rodents are the top threat in warehouses. They chew through packaging, damage inventory, and contaminate goods with droppings and urine. They also chew on wires and insulation, posing a fire risk.
Stored Product Pests
Particularly common in food storage and dry goods, these pests can infest grains, cereals, flour, and pet food. Once inside a package or pallet, they spread quickly through bulk storage.
Cockroaches
Cockroaches thrive in dark, undisturbed areas like under pallets and in staff break rooms. They carry bacteria that can contaminate packaging and stored goods.
Birds (Pigeons, Sparrows)
Birds nesting in rafters or roofing can defecate on goods and create health hazards. Their presence in loading bays or open ceilings is not only a contamination issue but also a regulatory violation.
Ants & Flies
Ants are attracted to food spills or damaged packaging. Flies, especially in waste disposal or near food storage, can spread bacteria throughout the facility.
