A first barrier is set up around the perimeter of the building and yard, where bait stations are installed containing rodenticide (poison). To prevent rodents from developing resistance, the rodenticide is periodically replaced and renewed.<\/p>\n<p>For safety reasons, trap-stations containing glue boards are installed in interior spaces, and these are replaced and renewed as needed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>How long does full pest treatment take per site\/floor (e.g. one floor of a hotel)?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"faq-body\">\n<p>The duration of treatment depends on the area and the level of infestation, and is determined individually.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Are the chemicals used safe for facility personnel and visitors?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"faq-body\">\n<p>Yes. Professional operators use approved, low-toxicity products. Staff should usually stay out of the treated area for 2 to 4 hours until the application dries.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>How long do we need to vacate the facility during treatment?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"faq-body\">\n<p>For general crawling insects, you only need to vacate the specific zone during application until it dries (about 2 hours). Heavy fogging may require 4 to 6 hours.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>How do we prepare our facility before the operator arrives?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"faq-body\">\n<p>Clear open food or utensils, move inventory or furniture slightly away from walls, and ensure floors are thoroughly cleaned.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Why do we still see pests in the facility after the treatment?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"faq-body\">\n<p>A temporary increase occurs because the chemicals flush pests out of their nesting zones. It usually takes a few days to see full eradication.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>How often should our facility receive preventative pest control?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"faq-body\">\n<p>Commercial facilities usually require monthly or quarterly maintenance plans depending on industry regulations and the type of business.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details>\n<summary>Can our facility staff handle this with store-bought sprays?<\/summary>\n<div class=\"faq-body\">\n<p>Store sprays only kill surface pests and fail to eliminate the root nest.
