Bugs in Storage Units
-
Bait Boxes
-
The storage facility should have bait boxes both inside and outside the units, and it should detail the location of those boxes for customers.
Spraying
-
There should be regular spraying of storage units and investigation of any infestations to keep insects from entering and multiplying.
Lighting
-
There should not be any light shining on entrances and exits to draw insects. Vegetation should not grow up against the storage buildings.
Food
-
Do not put food in your storage unit. Storage facilities other than food warehouses do not have the specialized pest control for protecting food.
Climate Control
-
Climate-controlled storage, although more expensive, does not guarantee protection against insects. Stable temperature and humidity levels alone do not sufficiently discourage insects from entering your storage unit.
