Even a single photo posted by a customer on social media is enough for a facility&#8217;s ratings and reputation to fall. That is why rodent prevention is always better than crisis management.<\/p>\n\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6967 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/balaveri.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-12-02-at-04.10.48.jpeg\" alt=\"The deratization process\" width=\"1600\" height=\"858\" srcset=\"https:\/\/balaveri.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-12-02-at-04.10.48.jpeg 1600w, https:\/\/balaveri.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-12-02-at-04.10.48-300x161.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/balaveri.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-12-02-at-04.10.48-1024x549.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/balaveri.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-12-02-at-04.10.48-768x412.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/balaveri.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-12-02-at-04.10.48-1536x824.jpeg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/p>\n\n<p>We work with the following approach: first of all, we carry out an audit and diagnostics of the facility. We draw up a map, examine cracks and crevices, and look for traces of rodents.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Then we begin<\/strong> the lower parts of doors, window seals, and wall crevices <strong>sealing<\/strong>, putting the drains in order, <strong>managing waste, and we ensure<\/strong> that food and raw materials are stored only in closed containers.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>At the next stage, monitoring of the facility begins, which we carry out 24\/7.<\/strong> We install mechanical or digital traps, obtain a map of the \u201chot spots,\u201d and know precisely <strong>where and when<\/strong> rodent activity occurs.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>We carry out targeted intervention only where it is needed. The destruction of rats and mice<\/strong> is done with mechanical or digital traps and special baits. And if necessary, with certified chemical products.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>An inseparable part of our work is documentation and reporting.<\/strong> Every visit ends <strong>with a report<\/strong>, which describes the location, the method, the agents used, the result, and the next steps. If necessary, we prepare documentation <strong>HACCP\/ISO<\/strong> for the requirements.<\/p>\n\n<h2><strong>Frequently Asked Questions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<h3><strong>Is deratization dangerous for products?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>No. Balaveri uses non-toxic and certified methods; chemicals are used only when necessary and locally.<\/p>\n\n<h3><strong>How long does it take to destroy rodents at a facility?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The initial stage \u2014 that is, the audit and the first intervention \u2014 is completed quickly; afterwards we work with scheduled monitoring so that rodent prevention is constant.<\/p>\n\n<h3><strong>Can we get rid of rats in a single visit and be done with it?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>One visit from Balaveri will help you stop the crisis, but for a sustainable result a preventive plan is needed, and that is exactly what we offer.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>In a word, deratization<\/strong> is not just \u201ccatching\u201d a rodent; it is a <strong>system<\/strong>that unites <em>the destruction of rats, the destruction of mice, rodent prevention, and<\/em> comprehensive <em>pest prevention<\/em>.
