The organism, then the joint

A moth in a dining room is often a bag in dry storage and a void above the pass. Fogging the room treats neither. Food sites need source removal, sanitation, monitoring, and a ceiling that does not share habitat with the package.

## What we actually do

- Source: find the product and the void, not just the adult.
- Sanitation and exclusion notes operations can actually run.
- Monitoring points and an evidence pack for brand or health audits.

Biology here

- Indian meal moth and various beetles in dry goods, spices, bird seed, bulk bins.
- Larvae travel. Adults are what guests see.
- Voids above kitchens and unsealed packages are the usual pair.

Assemblies we photograph

- Dry storage
- Ceiling voids above the pass
- Bulk bins and packaging
- Staff lunch rooms
- Receiving docks

Questions

## About stored-product pests

### Can you be on site before a surprise inspection?

Call. Same-day helps if the source is still on the shelf. It does not replace the void work that should have happened last quarter. We will say which.
