Annual sanitary contract: the traceability that protects you

What a contract actually contains

It starts with a building survey: high-risk areas, entry points, linen and waste flows, and the site's history. That survey produces a map and a numbered baiting plan, physically marked out on the premises.

Then come the scheduled visits, at a frequency that depends on size, on whether there is a kitchen, and on history. At each visit: every station recorded, sensitive areas inspected, immediate corrective action where needed, and a written report handed over the same day.

Added to that are a priority response line for guest reports, and maintenance of the register: reports, records, product data sheets, certification documents. That register is your pest control section, ready to present.

Why prevention costs less

An infestation caught by a bait record is treated in a limited area, in one visit, without taking a room out of service. The same infestation caught by a guest is treated across several units, as an emergency, with lost nights, a goodwill gesture and a public review to manage.

There is a less visible but real second effect: the discipline imposed by regular visits progressively corrects the structural causes — door thresholds, seals, floor storage, waste handling — that bring the same problems back year after year.

Our protocol, step by step

1. Initial building survey
   Full walkthrough: sample rooms, laundry, kitchen and pantry, stores, waste room, basements, service ducts and surroundings.
2. Mapping and baiting plan
   High-risk areas defined and bait stations and detection traps positioned and numbered, all marked on a plan.
3. Exclusion measures
   Entry points sealed, door thresholds, grilles and pipe penetrations corrected, with recommendations on storage and waste handling.
4. Scheduled periodic visits
   Visits at the agreed frequency: every station recorded, sensitive areas inspected, corrective action taken and a written report handed over the same day.
5. Maintaining the sanitary register
   Reports, consumption records, safety data sheets and certification documents archived in a single file.
6. Annual plan review
   Review of the past year, adjustment of frequency and baiting plan, and update of the pest control section of the food safety plan.
