When it comes to foods, you may be 100% responsible for the safety of your students, employees, customers and patients.  Whether you are working in a food processing plant, a school cafeteria, a hospital or nursing home kitchen or a restaurant, the use of chemicals to control a pest problem will present BIG PROBLEMS if not handled properly.

Even though most food pests are small, they can cause HUGE headaches. Sometimes the chemical pesticides used to control them can cause harmful effects to the food itself, the people working in that area or your customers.  If you want to be certain that you are doing the “RIGHT” thing, you’ll need to learn how to make proper pest management an integral part of your comprehensive food safety program.

We’ll introduce you to ways of saving money and protecting your business when you sign up for our “Pest Management in Food Environments” two-day program.  This course has been designed to cover everything you’ll need to ensure that your pest management program is effective and safe.
