Food Processing Audits Demand Better Pest Control

With the passage of the Global Food Security Act in 2009, changes have been moving through the food-processing industry. The most visible, perhaps, are the intensified auditing standards that leave little room for error. Increasing documentation demands and demands for better pest control necessitate the support of an experienced food-processing pest control provider.

Food processing audits require vigilance and solid documentation.

From Your NY/North Jersey Commercial Pest Control Specialist: “Changes in food industry audits demand that you have bar coding, handheld devices, and detailed trending reports. It’s an industry Western can serve consistently, because not a lot of companies can provide this level of service.” – Mike Whalen, Commercial Regional Sales Manager, NY/North Jersey

When you’re dealing with a commercial pest control provider that knows food processing, it can take stress out of your audits. However, pest control isn’t just about audits – it’s about uncovering and addressing issues that can put production at risk. Sometimes, unusual pests or pest conditions can plague food facilities, and experience counts when it comes to devising solutions. That’s where Western’s in-house quality assurance team and staff entomologists come in.

“We have more entomologists on staff as a Mid-Atlantic company than many nationals, and our customers appreciate that.” – Mike Whalen

Your commercial pest control provider should be a proactive partner who is in it for the long haul, working with you to prevent problems and pave the way for audit success. Learn more about Western’s food processing pest control expertise.
