orIntegrated pest management
It consists of four main steps.
Step 1: Pest Inspection
Your trained pest control technician will perform a comprehensive inspection to understand your school’s individual needs, including:
- The layout and design of buildings and grounds
- The school’s daily operation and how each space is used
- Assessing areas of potential pest dwelling and entry points
- An in-depth understanding of food areas (e.g. tuckshops, cafeterias, and staff kitchens)
- Analysing previous pest reports
- Examining the local environment for additional risk factors
Step 2: Assigned a Pest Control Officer & Team
After your inspection, you will be assigned a responsible officer and pest control team, who fully understand your school and its unique pest control needs.
Step 3: Provided with a Personalised Program
Allstate use the knowledge gained from the initial inspection to create a personalised pest management program designed for your environment.
This plan is an in-depth resource for both your facility and your pest control team and can include:
- Building and maintenance exclusion practices
- Guidance on housekeeping and sanitation for students and teachers
- Advice for suppliers entering the premises
- Information on future pest inspections
- Control methods
- Advice for managing the surrounding natural environment to reduce risk
