Is
Your company legal?
Relevant
laws include:
The
Prevention of Damage By Pests Act 1949
The
Food Safety Act 1990
The
Food Safety (General Food Hygiene) Regulation 1995
Failure
to keep your business completely pest free could ultimately result
in it's closure. Penalties will be imposed of up to £20,000
for each offence, or even a term in prison for more serious offences.
Rodents have been known to cause deaths through fires started by
gnawing electrical cables or gnaws pipes etc.
At Pest
Express we operate a system of 'Integrated Pest Management', which
incorporates preventative measures and monitoring allowing us to
treat a problem as soon as it happens, we work on the principle
the sooner you fix aproblem, the less it costs.
Having
a comprehensive pest control contract gives you a documented account
which provides your business with the evidence of 'due diligence'
against prosecution and its consequences.
At Pest
Express we are able to help you with a 24 hour 'Full Laboratory
Service Backup'. This includes pest identification, qualified graduate
biologist technical audits etc. To help you meet your own obligations
under various legislation's - it may be that you only require flying
insect control measures. We would be happy to supply and maintain
'Fly Machines', for example.
"Imagine
finding insects or rodents droppings in something you have bought!"
"Now
imagine your customers finding them in an item they have bought
from you!"
"Could
your business survive the bad publicity and possible prosecution
that could follow?"
