Why food businesses in London need professional commercial pest control

In the fast-paced food service industry, even a minor pest issue can lead to serious consequences - closures, fines, or a drop in your Food Hygiene Rating. Restaurants, commercial kitchens, and licensed venues are particularly vulnerable due to:

  • High food traffic and overnight waste accumulation
  • Warm kitchens, storage rooms, and dishwashing areas
  • Multiple pest entry points via deliveries, drainage systems, or structural gaps
  • Regulatory pressure from Environmental Health Officers (EHOs) and audits
  • Public visibility via online reviews and social media

Even a single pest sighting can result in:

  • Loss of your food hygiene rating
  • Compliance issues with HACCP, BRC, IFS or ISO standards
  • Negative press, fines, or closure
  • Reputational damage that’s hard to recover from

Protect Your Food Hygiene Rating & Reputation

Common pests in the food industry and restaurants we treat

Fantastic Services provides specialised commercial pest control services for restaurants, cafés, bars, and other foodservice establishments, targeting the species most commonly found in hospitality environments:

  • Rodents

    Mice and rats frequently nest in storerooms, under appliances, and behind walls. They contaminate surfaces with droppings and urine, damage packaging and wiring, and can cause immediate health inspection failures.

  • Cockroaches

    Cockroaches spread dangerous pathogens including Salmonella and E. coli. These pests thrive in warm, humid environments such as kitchen wall voids, dishwashing areas, and spaces around refrigerators and boilers. They can remain hidden for weeks, making early detection challenging.

  • Flies

    Fruit flies, drain flies, and houseflies commonly breed in bins, grease traps, and bar areas. These pests are notorious for spreading bacteria to food surfaces and are closely monitored by Environmental Health Officers (EHO) during inspections.

  • Ants

    Ants are drawn to sugar residues, food spills, and liquids, making kitchens, food preparation areas, and dining spaces prime targets for nesting and foraging. Their presence can contaminate food and surfaces, leading to customer complaints and health code violations.

  • Pigeons

    Pest birds like pigeons and gulls create serious hygiene hazards in commercial food environments, particularly around rooftops, delivery areas, waste disposal zones, and outdoor dining spaces. Their nesting or roosting can lead to heavy accumulations of droppings and debris that pose significant health risks.
