Pest Control for Food & Beverage Processing Plants

Same Day Service Available

No Obligation Instant Quote

A single pest sighting in a food processing facility can shut down a production line, fail an audit, and cost your operation tens of thousands of dollars. You don't need a pest control company that shows up and sprays - you need a partner who understands food safety regulations, audit requirements, and the zero-tolerance standard your facility operates under.

Our lead commercial technician Zach Jolley is AIB Food Safety and Sanitation certified and NPMA certified for pest management in food processing and handling facilities. We work with processing plants, packaging facilities, and food distribution centers across the Phoenix metro.

Compliance & Risk

What's at Stake for Your Facility

Food processing environments attract pests because they offer everything pests need: warmth, moisture, food sources, and harborage. The stakes are different from residential pest control - a failed audit, a contamination event, or a customer complaint about a foreign body in product can damage your brand, trigger recalls, and result in regulatory action.

Third-party audit programs like AIB, SQF, and BRC all require documented pest management programs with evidence of ongoing monitoring, corrective actions, and trend analysis. A pest control provider that just shows up and treats without documentation leaves you exposed.

We build audit-ready pest management programs from day one. Every treatment, every inspection, every corrective action is documented and organized so it's ready when your auditor shows up - not scrambled together the night before.

Common Threats

Pests That Target Processing Facilities

Arizona's climate creates unique pest pressure for food processing operations. Here are the primary threats we manage:

German Cockroaches

The number one pest in food processing environments. They reproduce rapidly, hide in equipment crevices and wall voids, and contaminate surfaces with allergens and bacteria. A small population can explode into thousands within weeks if not caught early.

Stored Product Insects

Indian meal moths, flour beetles, sawtoothed grain beetles, and weevils infest raw ingredients, finished products, and packaging materials. They're often introduced through incoming shipments and can spread through an entire facility if monitoring isn't in place.

Rodents

Roof rats and house mice contaminate product, gnaw through wiring and packaging, and leave droppings that are an automatic audit failure. Arizona's roof rat population has exploded in the Valley over the past decade, and processing facilities with loading docks and exterior openings are prime targets.

Flies

House flies, drain flies, and fruit flies are indicator pests - their presence tells auditors there's a sanitation issue. Flies breed in drains, waste areas, and anywhere organic matter accumulates. Managing them requires both treatment and sanitation recommendations.

How We Work

Our Integrated Pest Management Program

01

Facility Assessment

We walk your entire facility - production floors, raw material storage, finished goods warehousing, loading docks, break rooms, locker rooms, and exterior grounds. We identify current pest activity, entry points, harborage conditions, and sanitation gaps. You get a written assessment with specific findings and recommendations.

02

Monitoring & Detection

We install and maintain monitoring devices throughout your facility - insect light traps, glue boards, rodent monitoring stations, and pheromone traps for stored product insects. Every device is numbered, mapped, and inspected on a regular schedule. Trend data from these devices tells us what's happening before it becomes a problem.

03

Targeted Treatment

When treatment is needed, we use food-safe products approved for use in processing environments. Gel baits in harborage areas, crack-and-crevice applications, exterior perimeter treatments, and growth regulators - all applied with precision to minimize any risk to your product or production process.

04

Documentation & Reporting

Every service visit generates detailed records: treatment logs, monitoring device inspection reports, corrective action recommendations, and trend analysis. All documentation is audit-ready and organized for AIB, SQF, BRC, or any third-party certification body your facility works with.

Audit Ready

Always Prepared for Your Next Audit

The pest management section of a food safety audit isn't something you can cram for. Auditors look for evidence of an ongoing, well-documented program - not a last-minute cleanup. They review service logs, check monitoring devices, inspect exterior conditions, and ask questions your pest control provider should be able to answer.

We've helped facilities prepare for and pass AIB, SQF, and BRC audits. Our documentation is organized, current, and accessible. When your auditor asks for pest management records, you hand them a complete package - not a stack of handwritten service tickets.

If you have an audit coming up and your current pest control provider isn't giving you the documentation you need, that's a problem worth solving now rather than the night before the auditor arrives.

Frequently Asked Questions

What certifications does Lunar Pest Control hold for food processing facilities?

Our lead commercial technician Zach Jolley is AIB Food Safety and Sanitation certified and NPMA certified for pest management in food processing and handling facilities. These certifications mean we understand the documentation, protocols, and compliance standards your facility needs to pass third-party audits.


How do you handle pest control during production hours?

We work around your production schedule. Most treatments are done during off-hours or shift changes to minimize disruption. When service is needed during production, we use food-safe products and methods approved for use in active food processing environments. Your production doesn't stop for pest control.


What documentation do you provide for audits?

We maintain detailed service logs that include treatment dates, products used, application locations, pest activity findings, corrective actions taken, and trend reports. All documentation is organized and ready for review by AIB, SQF, BRC, or any third-party auditor. We also provide sighting logs and device inspection records for monitoring stations.


Do you provide emergency service for processing facilities?

Yes. We offer same-day emergency response for urgent pest situations. A live pest sighting before an audit, a rodent found in a production area, or a sudden cockroach outbreak all require immediate action. Call us and we'll be there the same day.


What pests are most common in Arizona food processing plants?

German cockroaches, stored product insects like Indian meal moths and flour beetles, rodents including roof rats and house mice, and flies are the most frequent issues. Arizona's heat also drives scorpions and crickets toward climate-controlled facilities. Each pest requires a different approach, and our IPM program addresses all of them with targeted monitoring and treatment.
