Having been in lockdown since the New Year, businesses around the UK are getting ready to reopen their doors. Non-essential retail, beauty, leisure and outdoor hospitality venues will be able to welcome the public once again from 12 April. <\/p>\n

While this is fantastic news, if your premises has been sitting empty for the last three months, there\u2019s no doubt a lot to prepare.<\/p>\n

Something that has become increasingly important to customers since the pandemic hit, is hygiene. You want people to feel safe when visiting your premises and it is of course very important to do everything you can to keep both customers and employees safe.<\/p>\n

There are many aspects to consider before your grand reopening and pest control is one of them. Below we highlight why this is more important than ever. <\/p>\n

You may have acquired pests during lockdown <\/strong><\/p>\n

Business premises are at great risk from pest infestations during lockdown. This is especially the case this time round because it took place over the depths of winter. This is a common time for pests to make their way indoors as they seek warmth, shelter and food. <\/p>\n

Many businesses were shut down with little to no notice which means that there wasn\u2019t time to safeguard against pests. Bins could have been left unemptied, deep cleans weren\u2019t conducted and buildings weren\u2019t checked for potential entry points.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s more, pests will generally try to avoid human contact as much as possible so an empty building is going to be a very attractive prospect. <\/p>\n

Hygiene has become a priority <\/strong><\/p>\n

Since the pandemic hit, hygiene has become increasingly important to all of us. A worldwide survey conducted by GlobalData<\/a> revealed that 77% of people are buying more personal hygiene products compared to before coronavirus.<\/p>\n

Customers are naturally going to be wary about venturing out their homes post-lockdown so it\u2019s important that businesses make them feel as safe as possible. While a pest infestation isn\u2019t necessarily caused by lack of cleanliness, people do associate these creatures with poor hygiene. <\/p>\n

The last thing your business needs when trying to get back on its feet is for word to get out that you\u2019ve had an outbreak. It\u2019s a good idea to address any potential issues before you reopen so they can be dealt with before you start welcoming customers again. <\/p>\n
