Bakeries – effective pest control for food safety assurance
In bakeries, hygiene, safety, and continuous production are crucial. Even a small pest problem can lead to production shutdowns, product disposal, or damage to your brand’s reputation. In food production facilities like bakeries, pest control must be ongoing, precise, and compliant with food safety regulations.
The most common pests in bakeries include:
- Sawtoothed grain beetles and other flour-infesting beetles
- Indian meal moths, which lay eggs in packaging and contaminate raw materials
- Flour beetles (Tribolium), which thrive in warm environments and multiply rapidly
- Cockroaches, which pose serious hygiene risks and spread through walls and pipes
- Mice and rats, which may enter unnoticed and spread diseases
Pest control in a bakery requires specialized knowledge – all treatments and materials must be carefully selected to be safe for food production areas.
