Rodent control is crucial, as rodents are a major health hazard and an annoyance to infrastructure, food safety, and company reputation. Rodent infestation can easily lead to operational disruptions, financial losses, and regulatory penalties for food manufacturing, logistics, hospitality, and retail industries. Singapore's businesses seek tech-driven pest control solutions that offer effectiveness and accountability to achieve rodent control. 

 

To acknowledge the importance of such clever pest management strategies, the Singaporean government has included digital rodent control solutions under the Productivity Solutions Grant (PSG). If you want to protect your property while receiving government funding assistance, the PSG-approved rodent control is the best solution. Here is all the information you need to understand why ORIGIN Exterminator is a reliable partner. 

 

What is the Productivity Solutions Grant (PSG)? 

PSG aims to support and motivate Singaporean SMEs to maximise the use of IT tools and solutions to boost their operational efficiency, effectiveness, and productivity. Up to 50% of the qualifying costs for pre-approved digital solutions in a variety of industries, including food service, retail, logistics, cleaning, and many more, are co-funded by this grant, which is managed by Enterprise Singapore. 

PSG supports digital pest management systems, offering real-time monitoring, data analysis, and predictive insights, all key to effective rodent control. 

 

Why Choose PSG-Approved Rodent Control Solutions?

PSG incorporates the IPM (Integrated Pest Management) approach. It offers a combined benefit, including long-term prevention, effective control methods, and environmental considerations. It focuses on multiple control strategies, including sanitation, exclusion, and chemical control. These solutions aim to minimise the risk of re-infestation and reduce the need for repeat treatments. 

The following are some reasons for selecting PSG-approved rodent control products for your company. 

1. Long-Term Prevention: Preventing pests from entering the establishments is the top priority for PSG-approved solutions. It begins by securing all the entry points, upholding hygienic standards, and putting in place structural upgrades to keep rodents out.   

 

2. Real-time Monitoring with Smart Surveillance: The digital rodent control system has sensors that allow for the detection of rodent activity in real-time, as well as traps. These gadgets are frequently linked to a centralised platform, which instantly notifies pest control experts of any infestation symptoms. 

 

3. Effective Control Techniques: PSG-approved solutions frequently use a multifaceted strategy to control rodents. It combines various methods, which are —
  • Trapping - Using humane traps to capture and eradicate rodents. 
  • Rotenticides - Strategically using chemical controls to target and eradicate the rodents’ population. 
  • Physical Exclusion - Preventing rodents from entering the property by making sure all the cracks and crevices are sealed properly.  
  • Sanitation - To lessen the attraction of rodents to the property, ensure it is clean and that food sources are removed. 

 

4. Environmental Aspects: PSG-approved solutions take into account how pest control methods affect the environment more broadly. This includes — 
  • Restricting the use of chemicals - Giving priority to non-chemical control methods whenever possible. 
  • Targeted application - To lower and minimise the possibility of unforeseen consequences, rodenticides are applied precisely where they are required. 
  • Prioritising sustainable practice - Educating clients about responsible pest control and sustainable living. 

 

5. Expert Expertise: The PSG-approved solutions are frequently offered by seasonal experts who are aware of the unique requirements of various environments. These experts make sure that the appropriate control methods are being used and that the programme is adapted to the specific circumstances. 

 

6. Cost-effective Solution: While there are some initial costs associated with the PSG-approved solutions, the long-term benefits will surely outweigh the long-term expenses. By preventing the re-infestation and minimising the need for repeated treatments, these solutions can save a lot of money in the long run.
