Commercial stored product pest programmes for food processing, warehousing and retail across the Midlands and Upstate. Monitoring and documentation built for the audits your operation actually faces.
In a food processing plant, warehouse, grocery, bakery or restaurant storeroom, stored product pests are an audit finding, a product loss and a recall risk. A single infested pallet can contaminate a lot, and by the time adults are visible the source has usually been there for weeks.
That is why this work is built around monitoring rather than reaction. Catching activity early enough to isolate the source, and being able to show an auditor what you did about it, is what separates a pass from a finding.
Years of Local Service
local & Family-Owned Since 1955
Modern Exterminating has been the longest-standing, local and family-owned pest control company serving the area since 1955. Now in its third generation, the company runs by a simple standard, a PHD in customer care: professional, honest, and dependable, on every visit.
Assess the facility, place monitoring, isolate the source when activity appears, and document all of it.
Facility assessment covering receiving, storage, milling equipment, waste areas and the structural dead space between them.
2
A pheromone monitoring programme sized to the facility, with placements mapped so trend data localises the source.
3
Source isolation and treatment of structural harborage, worked around your operation rather than through it.

Service records, trend reporting and corrective action documentation formatted for your audit requirements.
Modern stands behind its pest control work. If a problem comes back within a reasonable time after service, contact our team and we’ll help address it according to the service plan.
Different species point at different parts of the operation, which is why identification drives where we look.
The most common in commercial storage. Webbing in product, adults flying in the facility, and cocoons on walls and ceiling junctions far from the source.
Sawtoothed grain beetles are flat enough to enter sealed packaging. Red and confused flour beetles impart a distinct odour to product at population levels.
They develop inside individual grains, which makes them nearly impossible to detect at intake and easy to receive in an apparently clean lot.
A specific concern because larval hairs contaminate product and can cause gastric irritation, which raises the stakes beyond spoilage.
Stored product pests enter on incoming product and pallets more than any other route, followed by returned or damaged goods, dock doors, and residual populations already living in equipment and spillage.
Once inside they establish in the places nobody looks: spillage under and behind racking, residue in conveyors and milling machinery, forgotten pallets, slow-moving inventory, and dust accumulation in structural voids.
Pheromone monitoring detects population trends before visible infestation, and trend data localises the source within the building. Alongside it:
On an audit, a documented monitoring programme with trend data and corrective actions is the difference between a finding and a pass.
Yes. Service records, monitoring trend data and corrective action documentation are part of the programme rather than something you request separately.
Not necessarily, and that is what monitoring data tells you. Trend information across monitor placements shows whether it is an isolated incoming lot or an established facility population.
Appointment length depends on the treatment and property. Our team will explain what to expect, provide an arrival window, and call on the way.
Modern uses low-toxicity, professional products and follows service-specific safety requirements. Some treatments require people or pets to stay out of treated areas until the materials are dry or for a specified period.
