Protect food stock from pest infestations

Chris Ernst, brand strategy director for Catchmaster

Don’t forget that stored product pest infestations can occur when stock or shipments from different locations are co-mingled at processing facilities. It often can be easy for pests to jump from one pallet to another. Quarantining incoming or vulnerable shipments using a pest boundary roll can help mitigate this risk. Using an adhesive-based tool to create a physical barrier around the stock can reduce the jump from one shipment to another.

Also, remember that pests can come from the outside. Perform a thorough inspection of the facility and use your integrated pest management (IPM) principles to reduce any conducive conditions, such as sealing foundation cracks and addressing doorway gaps.
