Pest Control in Irish Schools 1850 262 363

It is an imperative task of all educational facilities to provide their students and staff with a clean, safe and hygienic environment in which to work and study. Central to this task lies a pest management program that will detect, eradicate and monitor any possible pest infestation with speed, discretion and efficiency.

At Pestguard we have devised a School Pest Management Program (SPMP) tailored to the specific pest control, safety and audit requirements of Irish schools.

SPMP - Protecting Children in Schools from Pesticides and Pests

Pesticides are an invaluable tool for controlling pests. However, pesticides need to be used carefully and judiciously especially when used in sensitive areas where children are present. Children are more sensitive than adults to pesticides. Young children can have greater exposure to pesticides from crawling, exploring, or other hand-to-mouth activities.

We at Pestguard have devised a School Pest Management Program (SPMP) to reduce pesticide risk and exposure to children. Put simply SPMP is a safer and less costly option for effective pest management in Irish schools. Our School Pest Management Program uses proactive, preventive and monitoring strategies to reduce sources of food, water and shelter for pests in your school building and grounds. The SPMP program takes advantage of all pest management strategies including the judicious and careful use of pesticides as and when necessary.

Since children spend so much of their day at school our School Pest Management Program provides an opportunity to create a safer learning environment – to reduce children's exposure to pesticides as well as eliminate pests. We at Pestguard encourage all Irish school principals to adopt SPMP to reduce children's exposure to pesticides and provide a pest free environment.

SPMP Explained

The School Pest Management Program offers to audit, advise and provide Irish Schools with our strategic pest management program which involves a three pronged attack and defence against possible pest infestations. This program comes in the form of Preventive Measures, Proactive Monitoring & Auditing and Reactive Treatments.

The Preventive Measures proposed begin with an initial site inspection and set up of Pestguard pest management program. This will include; an in-depth surveyor audit, the establishment of a first line of defence of external bait stations, the provision of client recommendations and the installation of a strategic baiting program.

Our Proactive Monitoring involves routine site inspections the purpose of which are to fully assess all aspects of pest management both internally and externally under the standards of both ISO: 9000 and HACCP guideline. Our Audit Reporting is designed to meet ISO, HACCP and your own specific audit needs.

Finally all Pestguard service contracts include emergency call outs and follow up site inspections carried out as a priority Reactive Treatment designed to eradicate any current pest problems in the quickest possible time.
