While home mosquito control is something that’s extremely common in India, the same is also available and honestly, much needed for commercial and public properties. Schools, offices, hotels, restaurants, and almost all business premises should get mosquito control done as it has multiple benefits attached to it.
Firstly, having a ‘hygienic’ tag attached to your business is probably one of the best word-of-mouth advertising you can get. Nothing beats people being genuinely interested in promoting your business because of a good experience they’ve had with you. Today, we’ll speak about how mosquito pest control at your business can help boost revenue.
At general offices
As an employer, you should get regular mosquito control. Employees are always your greatest assets and they are the ones bringing in your revenue and profits. Thus, it’s vital you ensure that your employees are in the highest levels of health at all times. That’s why many companies offer medical insurance to their employees as well. Similarly, mosquito pest control will help them stay fit and away from deadly diseases that mosquitoes spread including malaria, dengue, chikungunya, and many others. If they catch one of these diseases from your workplace, it could mean at least 10 days of sick absence, if not more. Further, a disease-carrying mosquito which has already bit someone once in your office means multiple people could be affected at once.
At hotels and restaurants
These are directly rewarding businesses. If the appearance is good (and prices too), people enter restaurants and hotels. However, if there’s clear water stagnation and mosquitoes in your property, people will not want to enter. Further, those who have stayed at your hotel or ate at your restaurant and have faced a mosquito issue will not want to come here again. If it’s a bad mosquito problem, they will also go the extra mile to post negative reviews and spread the same negativity among family and friends. One wrong move and your footfall can decrease massively, which directly means a drop in revenues. Such business owners should schedule routine mosquito pest control services and fogging, even if there isn’t a mosquito problem yet. Outdoor areas and surroundings can be checked too, to make sure there isn’t any standing water that is assisting mosquito breeding.
At hospitals
We go to clinics and hospitals to get better and cure ourselves, not to get more problems. It’s absolutely critical for hospitals to make sure they maintain highest levels of hygiene so that diseases don’t spread through mosquitoes. Reviews of hospitals spread like wildfire and no hospital owner wants to hear people saying, “I’d never want to be admitted in this hospital.” In a building full of sick people, one mosquito can bite multiple times and create absolute havoc. Getting malaria or dengue over and above an existing ailment only spells bad news for your hospital.
At schools/colleges
Education is also a major business, and school and college premises aren’t safe from mosquitoes either. You may have often seen fogging taking place in your campus because the health of youngsters is very important. Many times, schools have been sued and asked to shut down because of not maintaining the required levels of hygiene. Youth are the future of this country and if they have to be educated well, they first need to be healthy. That’s why schools and college do regular mosquito pest control drives, especially during and around the rainy season.
The practice of mosquito control shouldn’t only be done at business premises but in public places and at home also. Take care and make sure you don’t get bitten!
