Pests in the workplace can cause a great deal of disruption, reducing productivity and creating unnecessary distractions. If they get inside, they can damage furniture, damage products stored on site, chew through wires, and even short out electrical equipment. Additionally, sharing a workspace with pests can lower morale and distract your team.
Offices are meant to be clean, productive spaces, but pests can quickly change that. That’s why office pest control is so important. A clean office supports your staff, protects your equipment, and helps keep your business running without disruption.
To minimize the risk to your office personnel and facility, Presto-X pest control offers a comprehensive pest management program to prevent pests. Your service technician inspects your office space with each visit, advising you of any potential attractants
Pests are drawn to office spaces for food, warmth, and shelter, and even a small issue can grow quickly if it's not dealt with. Here are some of the most common pests found in office buildings, what attracts them, and how to spot the signs early.
Ants are often found near break rooms, bins, and food storage. They follow scent trails and are usually seen moving in lines. Even small spills or crumbs can bring them in.
Seeing a few ants indoors is usually a sign there’s a colony nearby.
Rodents are attracted to food waste and warm hiding spots like ceilings, wall voids, or under desks. You may hear scratching sounds or notice droppings or gnaw marks.
Rats and mice can chew wires, damaging office equipment and creating fire safety risks.
Cockroaches prefer dark, damp areas—think behind fridges, under sinks, or in utility closets.
They’re attracted to leftover food, grease, and moisture. Signs include droppings, a musty smell, or seeing them scatter when lights turn on.
Flies often come in through open doors or windows and are drawn to food, garbage, and drains.
You might notice them hovering around bins, kitchen areas, or restrooms. Besides being annoying, they can spread bacteria onto work surfaces.

Stopping pests before they become a problem is the most effective approach.

Then we help address those issues and put a plan in place to keep pests out.
This could include fixing entry points, updating cleaning practices, and setting up monitoring tools. Regular visits keep your office protected, with updates you can trust. That’s what makes commercial office pest control a smart, long-term choice.

The most common pests in offices are ants, rodents, cockroaches, and flies. They’re usually drawn to food, warmth, and shelter.
Pests can enter through open doors, cracks in walls, gaps around windows, or even through deliveries. Once inside, they find places to hide and food to keep them there.
Look for droppings, chew marks, insect wings, odd smells, or sounds in walls or ceilings. If you see pests during the day, there’s often a larger problem behind the scenes.
At Presto-X, we use industry-approved tools, environmentally friendly and non-toxic solutions and methods that meet safety standards and avoid disruption.
This depends on the building and the pest risk. Many offices benefit from monthly or quarterly visits to stay ahead of problems and support a clean space protected from pests, year-round..
