Pest control is a sensitive issue in any business, but especially so in the hospitality industry where your reputation is hard won, but easily lost. Should an infestation become established, pests can be difficult to eradicate and cause extensive damage. You may even be at risk of litigation from your guests or your local Environmental Health department. Safeguard has nearly 30 years' experience dealing with the detection, prevention and control of pests in the food and hospitality industry. Whether you have a single premises or operate multi-site, as members of the British Pest Control Association, you can be assured that your Safeguard technician will be trained, qualified and insured to the highest standard.
With over 700,000 known species of insects, effective pest management systems are an essential partner to hygiene standards in the manufacturing industry. Whilst crawling and flying insects can be of primary concern, diseases through contamination can also be spread by rodents and pest birds gaining access into manufacturing areas. At Safeguard, we are experts in pest control regulations designed to ensure that your facilities are kept pest free. We know that you require your production, materials, premises and stock to be protected at all times to avoid downtime, disruption, delays and financial loss.
Healthcare Trusts, Local Authorities and Governing bodies all have a duty of care to their employees, patients and visitors. A pest infestation can breach that duty - leading to expensive and time-consuming litigation. In the 24/7/365 world of healthcare, where hospitals can resemble small cities, we have seen that cost cutting has led to some derelict sites, which makes constant monitoring and pest control especially vital. Food and warmth, not to mention the foliage of hospital grounds and the interconnecting corridors of heating and water systems, make healthcare facilities a perfect breeding ground and development environment for pests and birds.
With over 30 years' of pest control experience, we have protected millions of square feet of commercial property from pest insects, birds and rodents.

At Safeguard, we have a great deal of experience with pest control in both food-related and non food-related retail shops or outlets. We understand that no matter what you sell in your store, pests can cause severe damage to stock you have paid for and to your reputation. They can also cause distress to employees or customers. Places where food, clothes, boxes and many other items are stored can provide a haven for pests to hide. Anything from rodents like mice and rats, to flies, fleas, cockroaches and moths can all find a home in your stock rooms or customer areas and they need to be dealt with fast.

Did you know that a baby mouse can squeeze through a space which is no more than the width of a pencil? That means your home could be vulnerable.
