While we provide you with general guidelines, it's essential to consult with a professional pest control service to determine the most appropriate placement and bait selection for your specific situation. Conduct a thorough inspection: Inspect your restaurant kitchen for signs of rodent activity, such as droppings, gnaw marks, and nests. Identify areas where rodents are likely to travel or hide, such as near walls, storage areas, or behind equipment. Choose the right bait station: Select a rodent bait station that is suitable for your kitchen environment and compliant with local regulations. Make sure it is tamper-resistant and childproof to prevent accidental access. Identify strategic locations: Find the bait stations strategically in a space where rodent activity is detected. Common areas include corners, along walls, near entry points, and behind equipment. Avoid placing them in food preparation or storage areas to minimize the risk of contamination. Secure the bait stations: Attach the bait stations to the floor or wall using screws or zip ties to prevent them from being moved or knocked over. Ensure they are stable and not easily accessible to customers or employees. Use appropriate bait: Meet with a pest control expert to find the most effective bait for your specific rodent problem. They may recommend the suitable type and formulation of bait to use in the bait stations. Follow safety precautions: It is important to follow safety guidelines to prevent contamination and minimize any potential risks. Store food items properly, away from the bait stations, and clean up spills or crumbs promptly. Educate your staff about the bait station locations and the importance of not tampering with them. Monitor and maintain: Regularly inspect the bait stations to check for rodent activity and ensure they are filled with fresh bait. Maintain a record of any findings, and notify your pest control provider if there are signs of increased rodent activity.
