Top Four Reasons You Should Invest in Annual Pest Protection for Your Business

YESpestpros • November 14, 2018

You’ve spent countless hours building and maintaining your business. The last thing you want is for it to all come undone because of a pest problem! Save yourself some time, money, and stress by enrolling in annual pest protection for your business. Here are the top four reasons why.

Commercial property insurance typically does not cover pest damage.

From rodents, to termites, to bed bugs. There are plenty of pests that can cause structural damage to your commercial property or cause you to have to trash your furniture and start from scratch. Unfortunately, most typical commercial property insurance policies consider pest damage to be a maintenance problem, and is excluded from the plan. This means that they likely won’t cover any repairs or replacements due to pest damage. Investing in an annual pest protection plan for your business can save you the headache of trying to battle it out with the insurance company and the stress of repairing damage.

Preventing pest problems is cheaper and easier than eradicating an existing infestation.

They say that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, and that saying couldn’t be truer than with pest control. Preventing a pest infestation is always the easiest form of pest control, hands down. Pest infestations can be hard for non-professionals to identify. By the time a business notices or is made aware of the problem, an infestation can be firmly established with large populations that can be difficult to eradicate. Enrolling in an annual pest protection plan for your business can ensure that pests are stopped in their tracks before they ever have a chance to reproduce and cause damage.

DIY pest control can be tricky, unsuccessful, and a liability.

Most people do not have the specialized training and knowledge that a pest control professional has to effectively eradicate pests. Trying to control a pest problem on your own can be time consuming and is often unsuccessful. What’s more, misuse of a pesticide by a business employee could result in liability to the business.

Pest problems in your business can damage your reputation.

Of course, for many business owners, the biggest fear during a pest infestation is the reputation of the business. It only takes one cockroach, one bed bug, one rodent sighting to send your customers away for good. That’s not a chance many business owners are willing to take. Making the investment in annual pest protection for your business can give you peace of mind knowing that your business and reputation are protected from pest problems.
