Protecting your hotel from insects is not a trivial matter. Sometimes, they are so small that we overestimate their “power” to throw away the reputation of our hotel. Remember that insect pests must be prevented and controlled to prevent the spread of diseases, comply with legislation and avoid the loss of materials and, of course, customers. It will be very simple if you follow these 5 steps:
- Inspect
Carefully check every room (warehouse, kitchen and bedrooms, mainly) every corner, ceiling, wall, corner, behind furniture or spaces where they can be hidden. Any trace, spot, or anomalous sign can give us a clue that insects are nearby.
- Identify the “enemy”
Obviously, in your hospitality business, you should not act the same way to get rid of flying insects, crawlies or moths and mites. Observing and identifying is very important. Some actions that you should apply immediately after identifying the insect are:
- Seal small holes where they can slip through.
- Prevent access to food debris by cleaning properly.
- Dispose of garbage frequently.

- Appropriate products to combat with each insect
As specialists in the manufacture of insecticides with the line Vinfer Matón professional we know that each type of insect needs a specific product. Your list should not be missing:
- For flying insects such as flies and mosquitoes. The liquid insecticide V803, the powerful VInfermatón Rapid with its pleasant scent with a classic scent and the super concentrated VInfermatón Tronic P.N. with Pelitre extract are the most effective in these cases.
- For creeping insects such as cockroaches, ants and fleas. The V800 floor cleaner with insecticidal effect that cleans, perfumes and creates a protective barrier or the V802, which, because it contains liquid lacquer, lasts longer, are the most suitable. In addition, with VFermatón Dual-Use, also suitable for flying insects, you will win the battle.
