Stored product insect control

Any business that handles cereals, grains or dried food products is at risk from stored product insect (SPI) infestation. There are many different species of insect, in particular beetles that can damage raw food materials and contaminate finished products, making them unfit for consumption.

Leaving an infestation untreated may potentially cause severe loss of valuable stocks and further damaging your business reputation resulting in loss of trust for the brand.
