How do you control pests in a large warehouse?
Large sites use layers of protection: a perimeter ring of numbered bait stations outside, monitoring traps along internal walls and docks, bird exclusion netting or spikes on roof structures, and regular inspections with a site map and trend reports. Good housekeeping, such as keeping stock off walls and sealing gaps under roller doors, makes the program work.
Pest challenges for warehouses & logistics
- Rats and mice entering through open roller doors and damaging stock
- Pigeons and sparrows nesting in roof trusses above goods
- Pests arriving on inbound pallets and containers
- Large internal areas that are hard to inspect
- Customer and certification audits requiring pest records

- Dock, roller door and racking inspections
- Bird netting, spikes and exclusion for roof structures
- Inbound goods advice to stop pests entering on pallets

How it works
Site assessment
We map the site, entry points, stations and high-risk areas.
Program design
A layered program with visit frequency matched to your risk and audit needs.
Scheduled service
Visits around shifts, with minimal disruption to operations.
Reporting
Visit reports, station maps and activity trends for your quality team.
Audit-ready documentation
Many warehouse and manufacturing customers require a documented pest management program as part of supply agreements and quality or food safety certifications. We provide station maps, visit reports, product information and corrective action records your auditor can review.
