Modernizing Rodent Control in Food Facilities: From Routine Checks to Data-Driven Prevention

Rodent control in food facilities has traditionally relied on routine service schedules and manual inspections, often providing limited visibility between visits. As facilities face increasing audit scrutiny, operational complexity, and pressure to reduce risk, many are rethinking how rodent programs are managed. This session will explore how connected monitoring technologies and operational data are helping food facilities move from reactive response toward predictive, prevention-focused rodent control. Attendees will learn how modern monitoring tools provide continuous visibility, improve documentation for audits, and help teams identify trends, isolate risk areas, and strengthen exclusion strategies — ultimately creating a more resilient rodent management program.
