You may be tempted to take matters into your own hands when you notice an invasion of rodents or insects in your commercial building, workshop, warehouse, factory, office, home, or garden. Pest control is best left to a pest control specialist though. Pest control chemicals can be dangerous if not used carefully; causing damage to buildings and property and possibly harming domestic animals or natural predators, and even human beings.
Most pesticides are chemical and
therefore working with them is best left to informed persons.
Every professional
pest control system has been tried and tested to acceptable standards which
will cause no undue harm to buildings, furnishings or the creatures we value.
Yes: implement pest prevention first and foremost as this is always safer than pest eradication.
Remove
sources of food, water and shelter.
Store food
in sealed containers (plastic or glass).
Remove
garbage from your home regularly. Garbage containing food scraps should be
placed in tightly covered waste bins.
Don’t let
water accumulate anywhere in the home, like under basins or fridges.
Clear out piles
of newspapers, magazines, or cardboard. Clutter makes it easy for pests to hide
and breed and makes getting rid of them harder.
Close off gaps
and holes where pests can hide. E.g., fill cracks and crevices around cupboards, cornices or skirting boards. Cover holes with wire mesh and use steel wool to fill spaces around pipes.
Learn about pests
specific to your area and research the best ways to control them.
Check packages
or boxes for pests or signs of pest activity in before carrying them into your office,
warehouse or home.
“We understand that rodents are unwanted, but bear in mind that there are natural predators that prey on mice and rats. We don’t want to kill owls and other people’s pets in our attempt at eliminating the rats.”
Yes: use pest control systems correctly as indicated in the instructions or user manual.
After preventive steps have failed, use baits as the initial line of chemical defence against rodents or insects.
Bait is often effective and can be used with little risk of exposure, provided it is kept out of reach of children and pets.
Use crack and crevice treatments whenever possible.
Pesticides not restricted to traps or baits must only be applied to targeted areas and sprayed over the whole room.
Use fumigation or fogging devices only when absolutely necessary.
Read and follow the instructions and safety warnings on all pesticides.
Make use of ready-to-use products that require no mixing whenever possible.
If you hire a professional pest control specialist, ask them to find the source of the problem before applying pesticides.
“We know that mosquitoes kill more humans than any wild animal, and flies are nasty little insects that spread germs. However, sharing the atmosphere with mosquitoes and flies, we have bees and butterflies. These two insects play a vital role in keeping humans alive by pollinating the flowers that become our fruit and vegetables.”
Yes: dispose of pesticide containers and leftover pesticides safely and properly.
Read the label to find out how to dispose of the pesticide and the container.
Don’t discard leftover pesticide by pouring it down the drain.
Never remove the label from a pesticide bottle. You won’t remember everything you read and whoever finds the bottle when you are done needs to know what’s in it and how to use it safely.
Don’t wash or rinse empty pesticide bottles indoors.
Don’t give empty containers to pets or children to play with.
No: don’t use outdoor chemicals indoors.
Some chemicals
which are intended for outdoor use are dangerous to use indoors because they remain
toxic for longer indoors than they would do outdoors.
No: don’t overdose thinking it will be more effective.
Always read
and follow the label instructions. Using too much of a pesticide can endanger
the health of those who inhabit the building.
No: don’t transfer pesticides to other containers.
Always store
pesticides in their original containers with their labels intact.
Only mix as
much as you require if pesticide must be mixed with water.
Don’t use
empty pesticide containers to store anything else. No matter how well you wash
the container, it will retain traces of pesticide and could harm someone.
As with all
poisonous substances, don’t store pesticides in food or beverage containers. People
have been accidentally poisoned by consuming pesticides.
All things considered, wouldn’t
you rather reduce the risk of harm and increase the risk of success by hiring a
pest control specialist?

Pinnacle Hygiene and Pest Control Tip for the Month:
Hire a professional commercial contract cleaning crew to spruce up your new office space before you move in
Moving into a new office space is exciting but also
daunting. There is so much to remember and being super organised is a big
plus-point. Also, you can’t take long doing it because you can’t disrupt or
interrupt business for too long.
Once the space has been vacated you may be tempted to move
straight in. Bear in mind that there are going to be untouched corners in that
building that haven’t seen a broom, mop or vacuum cleaner for years. You may
also be tempted to send your own staff in quickly – but that’s a mistake. No
building is as easy to clean as an empty building.
Pinnacle Hygiene and Pest Control provides a Pre-Occupation commercial contract cleaning
service to relieve you of the concern of moving into an unclean space, or
having to organise your own people to do it. Start new and start fresh! While our fully trained teams are
cleaning they will also be on the lookout for any signs of unwanted inhabitants
like rats, mice, cockroaches, ants, etc. Pest control goes hand in hand with a
clean space after all. After a team from Pinnacle Hygiene has been through your
building you can rest assured you have a hygienically clean building – from top
to bottom.
The Pre-Occupation Cleaning Service includes:
Window cleaning
Cleaning both the inside and the outside windows, our team
of specialists can easily tackle inaccessible places that a quick clean normally
doesn’t get to. Don’t forget to arrange with us to come back periodically to
maintain the sparkling windows.
Floor Cleaning
Over time all floor surfaces become damaged due to wear and
tear. Our specialist team of cleaners will use the time that your building is
vacant to steam clean, strip, polish, or restore – whichever is required –
whether the floors are wood, marble, travertine, ceramic, porcelain, terrazzo
slate, sandstone, etc.
Carpet and upholstery cleaning
Carpets and upholstery gather dirt over time, and they cannot be cleaned properly when there is furniture in the way. What better time to steam clean everything when the rooms are empty? Imagine how lovely your new conference room is going to look when the carpet looks as good as new?
High access cleaning
Hard-to-reach places are too often neglected during
day-to-day cleaning. The best way to combat this is a thorough clean every once
in a while. During a pre-occupation clean we can easily access roof beams and
trusses, chandeliers, and suspended ceiling boards, meaning that you can rest
assured that every space inside your new place is clean.
Pinnacle Hygiene and Pest control services would like to share our values
with you
Innovation We aim to use better processes and systems in order to improve our service through

The Importance of a Commercial Hygiene Service:
Absenteeism due to sickness decreases
Encourages a clean working environment
Protects your products as well as your staff
and customer’s health
Contributes towards a positive impression of
your brand
Are there benefits to outsourcing cleaning services in South Africa?
Yes, there definitely are!
“You will experience financial and social benefits when you outsource commercial cleaning services.”
1. What are the benefits of a clean work environment?
Having a hygienic environment to work in is beneficial to being content; this is important because people spend an average of one-third of their day at work.
Well known benefits of hygienic surroundings include:
• Increased Productivity • Healthy, content employees • A higher level of professionalism • Great first impressions that last • Rightfully, workplace hygiene is a health and safety requirement
2. Why subcontracting a cleaning service makes sense
Value for money involves more than currency – time has value
too. Hiring a professional cleaning service means the cleaning company is responsible
for buying and retaining all cleaning supplies and sanitation equipment.
Professional cleaning companies have the buying power to purchase and use more suitable
products and equipment. This added value is carried over to you, the client.
Do you outsource your company’s marketing, auditing, human resources and vehicle maintenance? Why not outsource your cleaning too?
Each business operates in their own area of expertise. By
outsourcing, you can focus on what you excel at and leave those who specialise
in commercial cleaning and pest control to get on with their business.
“To outsource is to obtain goods or services on contract from an outside supplier.”
3. Who can you trust to offer an expert cleaning service for your business?
A professional Hygiene and Cleaning company would be your best bet. Choose people who have been in the industry for many years – with a tried and trusted reputation; someone who offers a comprehensive range of hygiene equipment, cleaning, and pest control services for all commercial properties. This includes offices, reception areas, kitchens, washrooms, clinics, workshops, and factories. Find a company that offers additional services such as the deep cleaning of kitchens and bathrooms.

Kitchen Hygiene
“We clean everything AND the kitchen sink”
Deep Cleaning Services
Our Kitchen Hygiene Service utilises specific chemicals
to remove dirt, preventing bacteria and germs from spreading. We clean areas
behind appliances such as fridges and stoves, cupboards, drawers, kitchen
drains, inside fridges, microwaves, and other kitchen appliances, kitchen
sinks, inside stoves, and all work surfaces. We also clean and maintain grease
traps, and remove all potentially harmful burned carbon deposits and fat
deposits from kitchen equipment.
All
of these services extend the life of your kitchen equipment.
Contact us to assess your kitchen’s hygiene level.
Commercial Carpet Cleaning
“First impressions are lasting impressions.”
The impression you make on your staff and customers is
important, we understand that.
Only specialised cleaning can effectually lift dirt from
deep within your carpet. Dust and dust mites cause allergies in people who
visit your building, and cause damage to the carpet fibres themselves.
Professional carpet cleaning equipment ensures all excess
water is sucked up with the dirt and germs; ensuring that carpets get dry
before mould has time to set in.
Contact us for a quote for our commercial carpet cleaning
services.
High-rise Window Cleaning
You may not think it because glass appears clear, but impurities
and contaminants stick to windows, preventing natural light from penetrating.
Environmental pollutants in city air contain abrasive substances that can corrode
and stain glass windows.
Hiring professionals to clean high-rise windows makes sense. They own all the necessary equipment and their teams are suitably trained. This guarantees less damage to window panes, frames, and sills, and no injury to your untrained staff members.
Occupational safety is the science of anticipating, recognizing, evaluating and controlling health hazards at the workplace with the objective to protect worker health and wellbeing and safeguard the community at large.
Contact us for a quote to have your high-rise windows professionally cleaned.
In Conclusion
Professional hygiene services produce a germ-free, hygienic workplace that reduces absenteeism, promotes a positive brand impression, safeguards your staff and customer’s health, and prolongs the life of your office equipment and products.

We

Pinnacle Hygiene and Pest Control Services
We offer a professional and personalised pest control service to all commercial clients. Services are guaranteed and include the treatment for prevention and control of rodents, cockroaches, ants, termites, flies, weeds and soil poisoning.
Pinnacle Hygiene and Commercial Pest Control
Why choose us for your Pest Control needs?
At
Pinnacle Hygiene and Pest Control, we offer well-managed and effective service
in all areas of pest control.
We
are small enough to assure attention to detail, yet big enough to offer
effective and long-lasting solutions.
We
have been in the industry since 2007.
We
understand all pest control and hygiene needs.
We
offer a full evaluation and will provide an in-depth proposal to help you
decide on the best, long-lasting, pest control for your situation.
For the purposes of
Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), a pesticide is defined
as “any element or combination of substances proposed for preventing,
repelling,destroying or mitigating any pest.”
We are a
specialised pest control company committed to finding solutions for all your
pest control problems. At Pinnacle Hygiene and Pest Control Services, we focus
on commercial pest control. With many years of experience under our belts, we
understand pest behaviours and therefore know the best way to exterminate them.
1.
Soil
Poisoning
We offer an
effective soil poisoning solution:
Pre-Construction
Soil Poisoning treatments.
Post-Construction
Soil Poisoning treatments.
There are two types of Soil
Poisoning
A. Repellent – Repellent termiticides create a treated zone around a house that is toxic. Termites avoid the soil treated with this repellent termiticides. This type of soil poisoning is most common in pre-construction.
B. Non-Repellent – When this type of termiticide is used, the insects are unable to detect it and, therefore, do not avoid the area. The termites then make contact with the active ingredient, which results in their death.
2. Fumigation
“We fumigate safely and effectively; whatever your location or size of the job.”
Fumigation is
a type of pest control that completely fills an area with a gas-like pesticide
that suffocates or poisons the pests inside.
Our team of
specially qualified exterminators is ready for dispatch. We use non-hazardous
products to fumigate your premises – no matter how big or small the area. Our
safety precautions guarantee that we are the most reliable exterminators. We
will advise you on the correct precautions to take in order to reduce the risk
of pests, making themselves comfortable in your building. Feel free to ask us any questions.
What is the difference between fumigation and spraying?
During fumigation, the entire area is sealed off, and a fumigant (lethal gas) is pumped into the area to exterminate all pests. The area being fumigated is enclosed in one of two ways: 1. Covering the building with a vinyl-coated tent or 2. Sealing the area off with plastic and tape. During fumigation, the chemicals penetrate the entire area, leaving no pests alive.
Spraying is usually a preventative measure. It kills existing pests using different chemicals from fumigation. Pests only die if they come into direct contact with the spray.
The longer you delay, the more you are exposing people to health risks associated with the pests that inhabit your buildings.
If you’re not sure which pest control solution is right for your situation, a pest control specialist from Pinnacle Hygiene and Pest Control will be able to advise you on the best option. Call us for a free assessment before you risk taking things into your own hands.
3. Pest Control
“Preventative
pest-control is the best way to protect your building from harm.”
What is a pest? A pest is any animal or plant harmful to humans or human concerns, including
livestock, crops and forestry. The term is also used to describe organisms that
cause annoyance, such as in the home or other building. In its broadest sense,
a pest is a competitor of humanity.
We
specialise in commercial pest control
We
evaluate your pest problem and identify the cause
We

We
certify that our solution will prevent the pests from returning
How Pests can make you sick
(and what to do about it)
Having a pest
infestation in your building can become a costly concern. Rodents and insects
of all types cause an assortment of problems. Some of these problems negatively
affect the integrity of your building, while others affect your health.
Pinnacle
Hygiene and Pest Control Services brings a professional and personalised pest
control experience to all our commercial clients. Services are guaranteed and
include the control and treatment of cockroaches, ants, termites, flies,
rodents, weeds and soil poisoning.
Did you know? Facts about cockroaches:
If the
thought of cockroaches makes your skin crawl, you are not alone; these creatures
are linked to dirt and filth. Because of their supple exoskeletons, cockroaches
can squeeze through cracks. The smallest hole can contain any number of
roaches. They are also associated with the spread of germs and disease. Studies have shown that the faeces, saliva and
shed body parts of cockroaches are linked to asthma and other allergies. They
are scavengers, which means they go out and collect food; this means they go
wherever the food is. If they can’t find any, they continue looking until they do.
Unfortunately, this brings them into your office, factory, warehouse or home.
This can have adverse effects on the health of anyone occupying the building
that the cockroaches infest.
Facts about ants:
Ants are not counted as dangerous pests, but they do cause damage to lawns and gardens. These insects settle in large colonies, building complex labyrinths at grass root levels. Controlling ants in lawns starts with knowing these insect’s soil preferences. It takes a rigorous amount of effort to terminate their nests. Spot control is the most efficient way to control ants as they tend to gather in small areas. Spot application limits the chemical area, lessening harm to beneficial insects who also call the garden home. Ants are more of a blessing than a curse, so contemplate the seriousness of the situation before you resort to chemical usage.
Facts about rats:
Exterminating rodents only provides short term population control. Sustainable control will only be attained by reducing the rodent carrying capability of the environment by reducing food and harbourage.
Poison should
only be used as a last resort after non-toxic, and less-toxic methods have been
tried, and only if a significant problem exists, that is a menace to human
health.
We recommend that rodent control procedures are used in this order: 1. Remove access to food and harbourage 2. Encourage natural predators 3. Encourage domestic predators 4. Live traps and relocation 5. Instant-kill traps 6. Fumigant 7. Rat Poison Please be aware – using poison in an uncontrolled way results in secondary poisoning to other animals; particularly cats, dogs and owls.
Help – There are Pests in the Building
It is unavoidable
that pests will occupy buildings from time to time. Some pests are not likely
to be of any great concern, especially in small numbers, but others can pose a severe
problem.
Complications
resulting from pests in buildings can include:
Deterioration of the structure (termites destroying wood, rodents making holes).
Persons developing allergies (allergies to pests such rats, cockroaches and dust mites are common).
Pests can bring in and spread diseases (rodents, flies).
Insect bites (mosquitos, spiders, fleas, etc.).
Hygiene maintenance is an important deterrent to many types of pests. Pests enter a building in search of food, and they will stay if they find it.
4. Lawn Care
“Enjoy a lush, green and healthy lawn with our comprehensive Lawn Care Service.”
Weeds We have specialised herbicides to control weeds.
Lawn Insects We control insects found in lawns such as ants, termites, crickets, mole
crickets and caterpillars.
Fungi We control fungicidal infections.
Our Environmental Impact
Environmentally Friendly
Products
By using
environmentally friendly cleaning products, we minimise harmful toxins in your
office, workshop, factory, warehouse, and home. The environment, therefore,
benefits from the decrease in chemicals that are pumped into our water and air
daily. Many people, particularly children and the aged, are vulnerable to toxic
chemicals that are used in most cleaning products.
Going Green
We want to
offer the best in cleaning, hygiene and pest control services but not at the
expense of our environment. Therefore, we offer environmentally friendly
alternatives to all chemicals and soaps, plus we use bio-degradable Sani-bin
liners and natural bacteria-based sanitizers.
Professional pest control
for a happy, healthier environment.
Unless you
are fond of creepy-crawlies (and I don’t think many people are), you may not
want to coexist with a multitude of pesky bugs. If you would rather live
without them in your space, it may not be a good idea to tackle any pest
infestation yourself; this could be dangerous because of the chemicals that are
involved.
To be safe,
call on the professionals – after all – this is what we are trained to do. We provide
a wide range of treatment solutions and also offer regular maintenance and
prevention contracts for corporate clients, commercial business owners and
landlords.
“We believe in delivering a service that is professional, effective, and above all else, value for money.”
Pinnacle Hygiene and Pest
Control Services is HACCP Compliant
HACCP (Hazard
Analysis & Critical Control Points) is the internationally recognised
structured operating method that helps organisations in the food and beverage
industry identify their food safety risks, prevent food safety hazards and
address legal compliance. HACCP is mandatory in several countries, including
the US and the EU. The Codex Alimentarius Commission has adopted principles and
guidelines for HACCP application. The HACCP system is science-based and
identifies specific hazards and measures for their control to ensure the safety
of food.
Who Can Use HACCP?
HACCP is used
at all stages of food production and preparation processes. All organisations
who play a role in the food supply chain can apply HACCP principles,
irrespective of their size or geographical location. Why is HACCP important to
your organisation? A structured approach to food safety using HACCP as a
management tool helps companies and organisations demonstrate their stakeholder
commitment to food safety and that stated requirements are being met. HACCP is
designed to deliver:
Commitment;
taking a formalised approach to assuring food safety helps you demonstrate your
commitment to stakeholders by meeting the demands of legislation.
Trust;
customers and stakeholders will see that you take a serious and managed
approach to food safety.
Competitive
advantage; HACCP is a key differentiator, and it can help you to become a
supplier of choice.
Improved
efficiencies; HACCP system assessment services can be provided to complement
your existing ISO 9000 approvals, saving you both time and money.
Is DIY Pest Control a good idea?
We’re not saying you can’t use ant traps, mosquito repellent
or bug spray, but when the pest problem gets out of hand, we would advise you
to call on the specialists.
Three concerns when attempting DIY pest control.
1. Health and Safety
Chemical pest
control is harmful to humans, especially those who have breathing problems such
as asthma, or those who have a sensitivity to chemicals. Children, the elderly
and pets are susceptible to harm.
Breathing
problems and headaches are some of the minor side-effects of chemical exposure.
More severe diseases that are the cause of chemical exposure include nervous
system malfunction, reproductive complications, and possibly cancer.
2. Environmental Risks
Without
proper expertise, you may cause damage to the environment when you attempt DIY
pest control. It is all too easy to blend chemicals in a way that will harm the
environment. The wellbeing of the soil, micro-ecosystems that exist in your
area, seepage into the underground water table, and runoff into the sewerage
system may all be at risk with DIY pest control.
3. Cost Effectiveness
Hiring a
professional may seem more expensive, but adding one product to another and
trying, again and again, can add up in the long run. A professional pest
control specialist will give you a quote and tell you in advance how many
treatments are necessary. In addition, hiring a professional means that most of
the risk rests with the pest control company. Specialists have knowledge of chemicals
that are harmful to people, pets, and plants in more depth than the instructions
on a DIY box cannot offer.
In Conclusion
When is a Pest a Problem?
Every
building will experience a pest problem from time to time. Whether at your home
or your place of work, pests may move in seasonally. The extent of their stay
will fluctuate depending on the location of your building and the proximity of
food sources or rubbish bins. Pests are seasonal, for example, ants tend to
come out when it’s hotter, and rat problems are worse in colder weather.
Whatever the case may be, you can depend on Pinnacle Hygiene and Pest Control
Services to offer the best treatment and advice without breaking the bank.
Maintaining a clean home
and office environment will go a long way in keeping pests at bay.

Who Specialises in Commercial Pest Control Services?
Pinnacle Pest Control offers a professional Commercial Pest Control service. All of our services are fully guaranteed and include the treatment and control of rodents, cockroaches, ants, termites, flies, weeds and soil poisoning.
Pest Control is best left to the
Professionals.
Most pesticides are chemical and
therefore working with them is best left to informed persons.
Our environment is sensitive; therefore, not all pest problems need to resemble Armageddon.
We understand that rodents are unwanted, but please bear in mind that there are predators that prey on mice and rats. We don’t want to kill owls and other people’s pets while we try and eradicate the rats.
We know that mosquitoes kill more humans than any wild animal in the bush, and flies are nasty little insects that spread germs. However, sharing the atmosphere with mosquitoes and flies, we have bees and butterflies.
