Heat Challenges
Summer heat can bring unique challenges to maintaining a clean and pleasant environment in facilities. Pests and unpleasant odors are two common issues that can become more pronounced during the warmer months.
Pests such as ants, flies, mosquitoes, and rodents are more active during this time and odors can become more noticeable in the heat, especially in areas with high foot traffic or waste accumulation.
Here are some effective strategies and tips to manage these problems, along with recommended products that can help.
Pest Control
- Inspect and seal cracks, gaps, and other entry points around windows, doors, and foundations to prevent pests from entering.
- Use sealed trash cans and ensure waste is disposed of regularly to avoid attracting pests.
- Ensure that all areas, especially kitchens and break rooms, are cleaned regularly. Remove food crumbs and spills immediately.
Managing Unpleasant Odors
- Apply odor neutralizers in areas prone to bad smells, such as restrooms, kitchens, and trash areas.
- Place air fresheners in strategic locations to maintain a pleasant scent throughout the facility.
- Ensure proper ventilation in all areas to reduce the buildup of odors.
By following these tips and using the right products, you can effectively manage pests and odors in your facility, ensuring a clean, comfortable, and pleasant environment for everyone during the summer months.
