What we do

Preventative tips

  • Pests need food, water, and shelter. If these are unavailable, they will not come. 
  • If you must store food, use a refrigerator or steel container.
  • Never leave food in classrooms or labs longer than necessary.
  • Promptly toss all food trash in hallway trash containers.
  • Close floor electrical outlet covers.
  • Please do not bring in your own chemicals to treat pests, as these may not be licensed chemicals for our campus.
