Key Pest Control Methods

Regular Inspections

Conduct routine inspections of the supermarket premises to look for indicators of pest activity, such as droppings, gnaw marks, or nests.

Pest Proofing

Ensure all potential entry points for pests, such as gaps around doors and windows, are sealed to prevent their entry into the supermarket.

Sanitation Practices

Maintain high levels of cleanliness throughout the supermarket, including regular cleaning of floors, shelves, and storage areas to remove any food debris that may attract pests.

Pest Monitoring Devices

Use pest monitoring devices such as traps and baits strategically placed in areas where pests are likely to be active. These devices help in identifying and controlling pest populations.

Biological Control

Introduce natural predators or parasites of pests, such as certain species of insects or nematodes, to control pest populations without the use of chemicals.

Chemical Control

Use of approved pesticides or insecticides targeted specifically for the type of pests present in the supermarket. Ensure proper application following safety guidelines and regulations.

Training and Education

Educate staff about the importance of pest control measures and how to identify signs of pest activity. Encourage them to report any sightings promptly.


Integrated Pest Management

Contego can provide regular inspections, implement tailored pest control plans, and offer advice on preventative measures.

DATA DRIVEN APPROACH

Synergy Portal

Through myContego, our dynamic Pest Risk Reporting System, clients can access real-time data and manage pest risk effectively. The portal is accessible via laptops, PCs, or smart devices, with customisable access levels to ensure appropriate site advice reaches the right individuals. 

Within myContego, clients have a comprehensive overview of estate risk ratings, categorised according to BRAG criteria. Site-specific risk can be examined, and reporting is available in both live and CSV download formats across the entire estate. On-demand performance reports provide evidence of site-specific pest risk status, actions, and recommendations. 

The MyContego dashboard presents risk ratings and trends by contract and site, with convenient links to sites, actions, recommendations, reports, risk ratings, and quotes. Compliance documentation, such as date sheets, risk and method statements, certifications, accreditations, and insurances, can be accessed. Real-time risk reporting enables quick insights, and a summary of risk ratings by site offers easy navigation.
