Pest control measures are crucial in food processing facilities because pests can transmit more than 30 types of diseases, such as salmonellosis, typhus, and Hantavirus, which pose significant health risks to consumers. This alarming statistic highlights the critical need for effective pest control measures in food processing facilities. At Sprague Pest Solutions, we understand the importance of maintaining a pest-free environment to protect your brand, customers, employees, and business operations.
The Necessity of Quality Assurance in Pest Control
Quality assurance (QA) auditing is indispensable in pest control, especially in food processing. QA auditors protect against pests, ensuring that your facility meets and exceeds third-party audit and government standards. To assess the cost of quality, companies should consider the costs of poor quality (internal failures and customer impact) and the costs of good quality (inspections and preventive measures).
Successful companies can keep the costs of poor quality below 10-15% of their revenue with pest control programs that are designed and implemented under the guidance of a certified in-house QA auditor.
The Role of Certified In-House QA Auditors
Certified in-house QA auditors play a pivotal role in maintaining the integrity of pest control programs.
