3.6 Pest control
Purpose:
Bateel Boutiques must be free of all pests: flies, roaches, ants, mice and rats.
Pest control is a service provided by a pest control contractor on a regular basis. To ensure a pest-free Boutique, we must maintain the highest level of hygiene throughout the Boutique and comply with municipal/food control authority policies.
Frequency: Monthly
Pest prevention procedure:
Regular, daily cleaning.
Do not store food items on the floor (even in closed boxes).
Never keep dates/chocolate boxes open or any other food products uncovered.
Discard any spilt products immediately.
Dispose of trash and garbage promptly.
Use plastic liners/bags for garbage cans to aid in cleaning the containers.
Wash garbage cans weekly with hot, soapy water.
Contact your maintenance team to close all openings around cables, drainpipes, vents and pipes to make them pest proof.
Routinely inspect incoming shipments to control the spread of pests.
Eliminate any conditions where pests might nest and spread.
Make sure to have an electric insect killer in each Boutique and clean it regularly.
After trading hours, make sure to switch off all the lights (a lot of insects are drawn to the warmth given off by lighting).

Remember: If you notice any signs of pest infestation such as flying insects, crawling insects or rodents, a single pest that is seen within your Boutique, immediately contact your pest control contractor/maintenance department. Do not wait until the next service.
