How Pesso Eco Bait Reduced a Severe Cockroach Infestation in a Culinary Studio

Cockroach infestations are more than just unpleasant. They pose serious risks to food hygiene, health, and business reputation, especially in food preparation environments.

In high-activity kitchens, infestations can escalate quickly if not properly controlled.

One culinary studio in UCSI University managed to significantly reduce a severe cockroach problem using a safer, eco-friendly approach.

The Problem: Severe Cockroach Infestation in a Food Environment

The constant presence of food and water means that culinary studios often face serious cockroach infestations, particularly in food preparation areas.

Cockroaches are known to:

  • Contaminate food and surfaces
  • Spread bacteria such as Salmonella and E. coli
  • Thrive in warm, humid kitchen environments

For a culinary space, this creates not only hygiene concerns but also potential risks to staff and consumers. In this case, the high level of infestation required immediate attention.

The Challenge: Persistent and Hard-to-Control Pests

Cockroaches are resilient pests that:

  • Hide in cracks, drains, and kitchen equipment
  • Reproduce quickly
  • Return even after basic cleaning or spraying

In food environments, using harsh chemical pesticides can also be a concern due to:

  • Food safety risks
  • Chemical exposure
  • Strong odours

This made it important to find a solution that was both effective and suitable for hygiene-sensitive areas, especially for proper cockroach control in kitchen environments.

The Solution: Using Pesso Eco Cockroach Bait

To address the issue, UCSI culinary studio implemented Pesso Eco Cockroach Bait, a targeted pest control solution designed to attract and eliminate cockroaches at the source.

Unlike conventional spraying methods, bait systems:

  • Target cockroaches directly
  • Reduce the need for widespread chemical application
  • Work continuously over time

This makes it an effective option for cockroach infestation control in environments where hygiene and safety are critical.

The Results: Noticeable Reduction in Cockroach Activity

Clear and noticeable improvements were observed within the treated areas.

“I observed a lot of difference now… very less the cockroaches now… Our culinary studio showed a lot of improvement.”

Key outcomes included:

  • Significant reduction in cockroach sightings
  • Improved cleanliness and hygiene conditions
  • Better control over infestation without heavy chemical use

Why This Matters for Food & Commercial Spaces

Cockroach control is critical in environments such as:

  • Restaurants and cafés
  • Culinary studios
  • Food processing areas
  • Commercial kitchens

An effective pest control solution should not only eliminate pests but also support ongoing hygiene and safety standards.

A Smarter Approach to Cockroach Control

This case demonstrates that even severe infestations can be managed effectively with the right approach.

Using targeted solutions like Pesso Eco Cockroach Bait helps to:

  • Control pests at the source
  • Reduce reliance on chemical sprays
  • Maintain safer and cleaner environments

Cockroach infestations can escalate quickly, especially in food-related environments. Taking early action with the right pest control method can make a significant difference in both hygiene and long-term control.

For businesses handling food, choosing a safer and more targeted solution is not just an option. It is a necessity.
