Protecting against Beverage Contamination and Minimising Stock Loss
BUSINESS IMPACT OF PESTS
BEVERAGE CONTAMINATION
Pests can contaminate beverages by damaging packaging, falling into vessels and by touching, eating and defecating on uncovered raw materials, leaving it no longer fit for human consumption.
AUDIT FAILURES
The presence of pests in your facility can result in costly audit failures, resulting in disruption to your facility’s operations, losses in revenue and even suspension of your brewing activities.
FIRE
Rats gnawing through electrical wires and cables can result in fires.

COMMON ISSUES FOR BREWERIES
INTERNAL AREAS
With an Intelligent Pest Control approach, your Javelin service team will identify the source of your pest problem, assess the extent, and then eliminate the pests and the conditions that allowed them to thrive. We use a range of tailored solutions to achieve this, including hygiene and proofing advice, protective residual spraying, targeted gel baiting and early warning monitoring devices, that help us to deliver quick treatments before pests cause issues. All our treatments are targeted, reducing the risk of beverage contamination and employee health issues.
COCKROACHES and ANTS
After a detailed inspection, a combination of IRS (Internal Residual Spraying) and IGB (Insecticidal Gel Baiting) treatment would be administered to eliminate the infestation as quickly as possible. Post treatment, monitoring devices will be deployed to monitor activity to detect any re-infestation as early as possible.
FLIES
Our Insect Light Traps (ILT’s) have been designed to be hygienic and to meet all legal and health and safety requirements. ILT’s use glue boards to trap and kill flies and as they are flying insect capture devices and not flying insect electrocution devices, there is no risk of beverage or raw material contamination.
RATS and MICE
The deployment of anticoagulant rodenticides in secured bait boxes, where there is no risk of contamination and of snap-back traps and sticky boards, where there is risk of contamination, along the facility’s perimeter fence, exterior walls and interior areas (if necessary) to safely achieve rapid reduction in rodent numbers.
EXTERNAL AREAS
Solutions for outside spaces, such as car parks and gardens, can be both targeted and comprehensive. Our surveyors will be happy to discuss options and budgets and come up with the most appropriate solution to fit your needs.
MOSQUITOES
We have a number of different solutions for mosquitoes including thermal fogging, larviciding and ULV treatment. For outside areas, a combination of thermal fogging at peak activity times, ULV treatment and larviciding will be administered to target all stages of the mosquitoes life cycle.
RODENTS
The application of anticoagulant rodenticides in secured bait boxes and/or snap-back traps and sticky boards (where appropriate) along the facility’s perimeter fence and exterior walls to safely achieve a rapid reduction in rodent numbers.
AUDIT SUPPORT
From AIB to HACCP, we can provide you with all the necessary supporting documentation that you need, as well as a thorough pest control treatment strategy tailored to match your audit requirements.
Our online reporting system, JavNet, makes it more accessible for auditors to examine, making traceability much easier should problems arise or questions be raised.
FLY CONTROL
Our range of Insect Light Traps (ILT’s) have been designed to be hygienic and to meet all legal and health and safety requirements, as they use glue boards to attract and trap flies rather than an electric grill.
With ILT’s, there is no risk of food contamination and tests have shown that glue-boards catch flies 100% faster than traditional EFK units. ILT’s are both silent in operation and more effective than EFK’s.
