Healthcare including Hospitals, Aged Care and Nursing Homes

Healthcare facilities offer some of the most complex challenges to managers. While pests and the germs they carry are unacceptable in a healthcare setting, traditional pest control methods that rely on pesticides are not a viable option due to patient sensitivities and the need for a sterile environment. How does ANT-EATER Pest Control balance these needs and help keep pests out at the same time? The answer is a true Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program that minimises the risk of patient and staff exposure to potentially harmful chemicals.

ANT-EATER Pest Control’s IPM programs are tailored to the specific needs and layout of your facility. We focus on non-chemical methods such as baiting or exclusion whenever possible, and if pesticides are required, we use baits or low-volume crack-and-crevice treatments - precisely targeted to the pest in question - to minimise possible health risks to your patients.

Every aspect of ANT-EATER Pest Control’s service is thoroughly documented to provide you with everything you need for reviews by hospital administration, public health inspectors, medical personnel and healthcare accreditation boards. Your ANT-EATER Pest Control Technician will meet with you regularly so you'll always know what services have been performed and how the program is working.

Restaurants/Cafes and Food Production Facilities

Consumers are spending more time than ever before in restaurants. That can be great news for your business.

Pests are a major threat to food safety because they carry several harmful pathogens commonly associated with food-borne illness, from E. coli to salmonella. If they contaminate your food and sicken a customer, it will mean more than negative word-of-mouth. Pest sightings could mean citations, fines or even a shutdown by your local health department.

ANT-EATER Pest Control’s Integrated Pest Management (IPM) approach protects your establishment from pests and the germs they carry. We use every possible method, including sanitation recommendations and exclusion services, to keep chemical applications to a minimum in food preparation areas. We also provide thorough documentation of every aspect of our service for review by you - and your health inspector if needed.

Education Facilities including Schools, Universities and Childcare

Given that pests may infest any location where they can find food and moisture, your school could be a prime target. The large cafeterias and the bag lunches stowed in lockers make schools look like five-star restaurants to the average pest. At the same time, the heavy foot traffic in and out of numerous entrances give pests ample opportunities to cross the threshold in your building.

Given the strict regulations on pesticide use in schools, pest management becomes even more of a challenge. ANT-EATER Pest Control Commercial Services treats schools across Sydney, and our experts know how to safely control pests based on Integrated Pest Management (IPM) principles that stress non-chemical methods.

With ANT-EATER Pest Control, our pest management professional will work with you to determine the best IPM program for your school. Through constant documentation and regular meetings, you will not only receive unprecedented pest control service, but you will receive customer service that deserves an A+.

Property/ Facility Managers Commercial and Industrial building complexes

Tenants and Consumers depend on property management firms to provide a pest-free environment. But in every environment, pest management can be hampered by a variety of factors - the most common are related to building structure. For example, specialty areas located throughout a facility can increase the variety and number of pests. "Back room" areas such loading docks, compactus garbage areas and storerooms are often popular entry points for rodents and insects. Buildings with inaccessible areas that are hard to sanitise, particularly those with false ceilings and floors, provide secure hiding places that give pest infestations a chance to grow unnoticed.

Hospitality- Hotels, Tourist Resorts and Motels

According to consumer research, when hotel guests have a negative experience, 96 percent of them tell at least 10 other people about it. That means if your guests see a cockroach crawling on the floor, that experience can be relayed to thousands of potential customers, leading to lost sales and a tarnished image - all from just one bad experience. But a damaged reputation and lost income are nothing compared to the fallout that could result from a customer or employee who is sickened by food prepared in a contaminated kitchen or conditions in a poorly maintained building.

With guests from all over the world checking in on a daily basis, and a range of pest "hot spots" from restaurant kitchens to laundry rooms to guest rooms, pest problems are hardly uncommon in hotels and motels.

ANT-EATER Pest Control services thousands of hospitality customers across Sydney, and we understand these unique challenges and how to overcome them. We also understand how important it is that your guests be unaware of your pest management service.

Small Business

As a small business, your success is built upon creating relationships with loyal customers. Your reputation is your stock in trade. Unfortunately, a pest problem can tarnish that reputation. Consumer behaviour research has shown that while 96 percent of consumers won't register a verbal complaint about a bad experience, such as a pest sighting, they will tell an average of 10 people about it. That's why ANT-EATER Pest Control applies the same unmatched expertise to your small business as we do to a 400,000 square-foot food processor or a sprawling medical campus.
