Pest control transport: how it works and advantages

 

Pest control with hot air generators

Pest control is a service specialized in the management and control of parasites within means of transport, such as trucks, ships, planes, trains and other vehicles used for the movement of goods. This type of service is essential to ensure that transported products are not contaminated by insects, rodents or other pests, which is particularly important for sectors such as food, pharmaceuticals and textiles.

Pest control is governed, at European level, by a specific regulation (UNI EN 16636:2015 standard) which requires the companies involved to have adequate skills and a high professional level to guarantee results, quality of service, safety for the community and respect for the 'environment.

It consists first of all in an in-depth initial inspection of the means of transport to identify any infestations present and evaluate the critical points where parasites could nest. This is a control plan customized for the type of vehicle and the nature of the goods transported.

The necessary interventions are then carried out, which may include chemical treatments, fumigation or the use of more ecological techniques such as the use of pheromones or heat. These interventions are carried out in such a way as to minimize the impact on goods and the environment.

After the initial treatment, a monitoring program is established to verify the effectiveness of the pest control and prevent future infestations. Monitoring devices are often installed that allow the presence of parasites to be detected early.

All interventions are documented and reports are kept to ensure compliance with health and hygiene regulations, often required by regulatory bodies and customs.

Among the most effective systems for pest control, heating is the most effective for quickly and safely eliminating infestations as the high temperature makes it impossible for bacteria, pests and parasites to survive. Furthermore, it is a low environmental impact system that avoids any risk of chemical contamination of the environments and the operator.

BIEMMEDUE hot air generators for pest control

The BM2 professional hot air generators are ideal for those who work in the Pest Control sector: the heat treatment guarantees extremely effective results in a very short time and with a completely natural process, without chemical substances, residues or gas releases, therefore resulting in zero impact on the ecosystem.

These machines heat spaces to a temperature of 120 degrees or higher, eliminating the entire infestation: the generator power quickly reaches the "kill zone" temperatures and continues to rise, ensuring the death of all parasites and pests (which do not resist this high heat at any stage of their development) with 100% success.

Especially in the transport sector, heat treatment is the ideal solution for the control and disinfestation of containers, cargo and goods that pass through ports and airports every day, with the potential risk that bacteria and pests, capable of withstanding long journeys, can be transported from one country to another and spread.

The advantages of pest control

  • Food and Health Safety: protecting goods from infestations ensures that there is no contamination that could compromise food safety or product quality.

  • Regulatory Compliance: companies operating in the transport sector must comply with strict hygiene and health regulations. Pest control helps maintain compliance and avoid fines.

  • Brand Protection: Preventing parasites from contaminating transported products preserves the integrity of the brand, preventing customer complaints and reputational damage.

  • Loss Reduction: Effective pest control reduces cargo losses due to contamination, which can result in significant economic costs.

  • Improved Operational Efficiency: A pest-free transportation environment improves operational efficiency, reducing downtime for extraordinary cleaning or dealing with unexpected infestations.
