Preventative Action Taken Before Infestations Could Occur
While no active pest issues had been reported, the café group recognised the importance of staying ahead of pest risks, especially in the hospitality sector, where customer-facing service and food handling are high stakes.
“Food businesses can’t afford to be reactive with pests. Prevention is key,” said Stefan Barker, spokesperson for Tom’s Pest Control. “Our goal was to create a consistent, brand-wide strategy that gave every location the same high standard of protection.”
This case highlights the growing demand for proactive, multi-site commercial pest management Perth programs in food service operations.
A Tailored, Three-Phase Pest Prevention Plan
Tom’s Pest Control Perth began with individual inspections of each café, focusing on access points, waste practices, shared service areas, and structural vulnerabilities.
The program rollout included:
1. Integrated Monitoring System
Discreet pest monitoring stations were installed in kitchens, bin zones, staff areas, and dry storage to detect early signs of cockroaches, rodents, and stored product pests.
2. Sanitation & Structural Advisory
Each store received site-specific guidance on bin hygiene, grease trap care, and sealing structural gaps (e.g., brush seals on doors and wall-floor junctions). Our team coordinated with managers to implement improvements efficiently.
3. Scheduled Preventative Treatments
Quarterly treatments were scheduled during off-hours using low-toxicity, food-safe products. These focused on seasonal pests like flies and ants without disrupting store operations.
Outcome: Zero Pest Incidents and Improved Health Scores
Six months into the program, all café locations remained pest-free, with no reports of sightings or food safety issues. Regular inspections confirmed improved sanitation and fewer structural vulnerabilities across all sites.
Health inspectors even commended several locations on their visible pest management efforts, and store managers reported greater confidence in maintaining pest-free environments.
“The head office loved that they could track service reports across all venues,” Stefan Barker added. “It’s given them peace of mind and greater brand control.”
