Pest Control in Action: How to keep rodents out of your business
Join us as we follow Matthew from Allstate Pest Control on his first commercial job of the day, a routine bakery inspection. This behind-the-scenes look at the process will show you all the work that goes into ensuring food preparation areas are free of pests.
Commercial routine rodent inspection process
1. Communication
Matthew’s first step is to meet with the client and get to know them and their needs before the inspection begins.
2. Site examination
Using a torch, Matthew conducts a meticulous inspection of the entire bakery. He pays special attention to:
- Moisture-prone areas
- Food storage zones
- Under-counter spaces
- Any potential pest harbourage sites
3. External bait station check
Matthew goes outside to check out the rodent bait stations. These are essential to the pest control service because they provide a good picture of the activity levels on the site. During this inspection, he:
- Checks for signs of rodent activity
- Cleans out the stations as needed
- Re-baits if necessary.
4. Roof void inspection
Matthew emphasises the importance of checking the roof void. This is an important area where rodents can harbour, potentially causing activity inside the premises.

orThe result
Matthew saw some rodent activity in the external bait stations during his first job of the day. This would mean that the rodents are consuming the bait keeping them away from entering the bakery. The inspection was carried out during production hours, and as a result any necessary treatments would be scheduled outside production times to ensure food safety.
