As an extension to their pest control service ranges, Rentokil will be launching a new pest disinfection service in June 2014 which reduces the risk of the illnesses associated with pest infestations. Pests can carry bacteria and viruses which can pose a serious health risk to people and pets.
These pathogens may be spread throughout an infested property via urine and faeces, as pests forage for food and build nesting sites. Infection can then occur through skin contact (particularly through cuts or wounds), or by consuming contaminated food or water. Rodents, insects and birds can carry a range of disease causing pathogens; including Salmonella, Hantavirus, Leptosprosis and E.Coli.
Rentokil Pest Control's new pest disinfection service uses a unique bactericide to combat this threat; the disinfectant used in the service kills up to 99.9% of pathogens and is certified SABS HACCP food safe.
The pest disinfection service is applied in the form of a spray or mist to all areas of a property, affected by pests. It is non-corrosive, non-staining and safe to be applied to any surface including plastic, soft metals and fabric. The bactericide is effective against bacteria, viruses, moulds and fungi (including spores), and can be used in all types of premises from warehouses, to office buildings and residential homes as part of an integrated pest management solution. Importantly, as the product is food safe, it is also suitable for use in restaurants and food outlets.
Mario Pluke, Technical Manager, Rentokil Pest Control comments: If a business or home is faced with a pest infestation, it is vital to deal not only with the unwanted visitors, but also any disease causing organisms they may have left behind. Our pest disinfection biocide kills up to 99.9% of pathogens, including those associated with pest problems including E.Coli and Salmonella, ensuring staff and family members remain safe.

Madrid city hall has received a surge in calls from residents requesting the collection of contaminated mattresses.
We had to stand guard for two hours over the mattresses when they were in the street, said one resident who suffered a recent infestation. People kept trying to take away the mattresses even though we had labeled them as containing bedbugs, she said.
Madrids public health department has denied that there is a public health problem but admitted that bedbug infestations have been reported in several buildings in Lavapies, one of the capitals more multicultural districts.
A recent report by Madrid City Hall said the prevalence of bedbugs in some parts of the city had reached near epidemic proportions.
There has been a 70 per cent increase in pest control services, said Milagros Fernandez de Lezeta, director of Spains Pest Control Association, who warned that bedbug infestations are very difficult to control and spread very easily.
Bedbugs, which bite humans and suck their blood, were considered virtually extinct in western Europe for at least fifty years. Their reappearance across Spain over the last ten years has been blamed on the increase in mass tourism.
They can occur anywhere, even the most luxurious hotel, said Ms Fernandez de Lezeta. Their presence is not linked to poor sanitary conditions but to the movement of people.
The pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela, which attracts more than 100,000 faithful each year, has in recent years had to tackle outbreaks of bedbugs at hostels along the route.

Loose change, wallets and purses, iPads, bicycles and even an SUV have been stolen in a recent rash of residential break-ins plaguing southern Calgary.
In nearly half of those cases 49 of a total of 102 since the beginning of March intruders got in through an unlocked home or garage door, or an unlocked vehicle that contained a house key or garage door opener.
Thats why city police are reminding Calgarians across the city to ensure their vehicles and homes are secure at all times.
One of the possibilities is with the changing of seasons, people are more in and out of their patio doors, in and out of their garages, and out of the routine of making sure everything is locked up, said Insp. Scott Boyd with District 8.
Particularly concerning is that more than 60 per cent of the incidents 65 out of 102 took place at night, when people would likely be home, Boyd said, adding a small percentage of cases involved homeowners encountering or confronting intruders.
These types of incidents happen year-round in communities across the city. But there has been a spike in cases in southern communities, he said.
According to statistics provided by city police, from March 1 to May 30, 2013, District 8 saw a total of 58 residential break-and-enters, of which 20 (34 per cent) involved entry through an unlocked door.
From March 1 to May 30, 2012, there were 73 break-and-enters in District 8. Twenty-one of those cases (29 per cent) involved an intruder getting in via an unlocked door.
In the most recent incident, officers were called to the 12200 block of Canfield Road S.W. in Canyon Meadows shortly after 3:30 a.m. Friday after a culprit broke into a home, stole some keys, and made off in the familys black SUV.
Its believed the suspect found a house key in an unlocked van on the property, which was used to get into the home.

An undercover sting operation resulted in the arrest of 12 illegal contracting suspects in San Mateo County on Thursday, according to a statewide agency that oversees licensed contractors.
The sting took place at a commercial property in Belmont, and was carried out by the Statewide Investigative Fraud Team, who posed as property owners.
SWIFT members asked suspects to bid on painting, drywall and flooring projects ranging from $1,000 to $14,000, according to Rick Lopes, a spokesman for the California Contractors State License Board.
In California, all home improvement jobs valued at $500 or more must be conducted by a company or person with a CSLB-issued license, Lopes said.
All 12 suspects were cited for contracting without a license, and one, an East Palo Alto man, was also cited by CSLB on an unrelated $5,000 warrant for driving with a suspended license.
In addition, 10 of the 12 suspects were cited on a misdemeanor charge of illegal advertising. Lopes said seven suspects were contacted through ads on craigslist.org, while five were called from business cards and newspaper ads.
The 12 suspects are Dardo Osmar Romano and Dino Joseph Landucci III, both of San Mateo; Edwin Francisco Zavala Valdivia of Sunnyvale; Hugo De Leon-Garcia of Hayward; Rafael Vicente Andrade Villalta, Concepcion Flores and Rossemberg Emmanuelle Hernandez, all of Redwood City; Loni Taaniela Maama and Filino Sokai Masifilo, both of East Palo Alto; Louie Graciano Ortiz of San Jose; Mario Ramirez Reynoso of South San Francisco; and Daniel Aaron Dayton of San Francisco.
The suspects are scheduled to appear in San Mateo Superior Court on July 15 to answer to illegal contracting charges.
CSLB officials encourage consumers to verify that a potential contractor is licensed before hiring them.
Dont rush your spring clean-up, only to ruin your summer fixing someones bad work. Check the contractor license. Get three bids, CSLB registrar Steve Sands said in a statement.

I needed a bathroom painted. Badly. For all the right reasons. The walls looked shabby-especially after having crisp, white ceramic tile installed so my guest bath floor no longer imitated chunks of glossy egg yolks spilling from corner to corner.
To save money, I invested in a sturdy mallet, a crowbar and protective gear and experienced, firsthand, what contractors undergo when chiseling ceramic tile cemented in place around the time Caesar conquered the world. My motivation was simple: I was desperate to save bucks on my bathroom refurb and frankly, I welcomed the chance to smash unmovable objects into smithereens for too many reasons to mention here.
What's someone without a lot of money to do in the rarified suburbs of Chicago--where price tags on goods and services cause downstate Illinoisans to laugh out loud when comparing their prices to ours? Find a savior.
In this case, I needed to find a painting savior. At the onset of my search, I gathered quotes, considered doing the job myself and grew so frustrated, I was about to leave the wall as is---until an intriguing flyer missed my trash bin, landed on my floor and caught the cat's attention. Reaching for it, I spotted the headline saying, in essence, we paint small rooms for $99.
Say what? $99 to do my small bathroom? What's the catch? I headed for the contractor's website, $99PerRoom.com and learned that there was no catch. My bathroom fit size criteria for a $99 paint job and since I wanted white walls, there was no additional color mixing charge. White paint comes standard and is included in the cost of the job. Turns out, an environmentally safe formulation is used to boot.
$99PerRoom.com is the brainchild of young suburban Chicago entrepreneur Chris McCarthy. He's done contracting work most of his life and holds a real estate license, but admits to having grown tired of listening to people complain that their budgets couldn't cover the amount of decorating work necessary to spruce things up. Could I relate? You bet your paint can opener.
Like the flyer that narrowly escaped my cat's claws, McCarthy's marketing instincts kicked in when the idea of $99PerRoom dawned because the concept could kill three birds with one stone: He could do what enjoyed, own his own business and establish a unique niche that's so price-driven, customers like me can't help but be attracted to his concept.
He's no fool, by the way. I recall being so excited about the price attached to my bathroom walls that I upped my order to include a second project. That's how much money I saved.
Here's the beauty of $99PerRoom.com: You head for the website and consult the chart on the home page to figure out your final room painting cost based on your measurements and the addition of a color that adds about 20 bucks to the cost. Receive a free estimate based on your own figures and a detailed invoice arrives in your e-mailbox. My experience was idyllic.
McCarthy's website is packed with information about everything from the story behind his mission to make room painting costs affordable to his use of green paint products. His concern for the ecosystem doesn't end with his paint choices: McCarthy and his crew regularly undertake volunteer clean-up jobs in the community; they tackle unique ecological challenges like removing garbage from wooded areas, waterways and easements.
