Protecting your Students and your School's Reputation
BUSINESS IMPACT OF PESTS
SICK CHILDREN AND EMPLOYEES
Pests carry diseases and bacteria and leave these on tables, surfaces and food preparation areas, increasing the likelihood of illnesses, such as Salmonella and E-Coli, being spread to children.
REPUTATIONAL DAMAGE
One outbreak of illness or any incident at school can quickly spread between parents and associates, who are worried for the welfare of their children or relatives. This can easily damage your hard-earned reputation.
FIRE
The ultimate danger and cost is a destructive fire, which can be caused by rodents gnawing through cables.

COMMON ISSUES FOR SCHOOLS
KITCHENS AND CANTEENS
School canteens and eating areas are susceptible to a multitude of different pests:
With an Integrated Pest Management approach, your Javelin service team will detect, assess, treat and monitor any pests for long-term protection. We use a range of tailored solutions, including hygiene and proofing advice, spraying, and gelling in the most targeted applications to avoid the risk of potential food contamination and both pupil and guest health issues.
COCKROACHES and ANTS
After a detailed inspection, a combination of IRS (Internal Residual Spraying) and IGB (Insecticidal Gel Baiting) would be administered to eliminate the infestation as quickly as possible. When necessary, monitoring devices will be deployed to monitor activity to detect a re-infestation at as early a stage as possible.
MOSQUITOES
We have a number of different solutions for mosquitoes including thermal fogging, larviciding and ULV treatment. For inside areas, our pioneering Mossoff repellent treatment can prevent mosquitoes coming inside and offers 24 hour protection for 1 month.
RATS and MICE
The application of anticoagulant rodenticides in secured and protective bait boxes and/or snap-back traps and glue boards along the school’s perimeter fence, exterior walls and interior areas (if necessary) to safely achieve rapid reduction in rodent numbers. Measures will be taken to ensure that any snap-back traps deployed are out of reach of playing children.
EXTERNAL AREAS
Solutions for outside spaces such as outdoor eating areas, playgrounds, sports fields and recreational 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 restaurant’s perimeter fence and exterior walls to safely achieve a rapid reduction in rodent numbers.
