Inspecting all deliveries is important to ensure that pests are not being brought in with the deliveries. Installing an air curtain helps to create a barrier and prevent pests from entering through open doors. Sealing cracks in floors and walls helps to eliminate potential entry points for pests. However, refrigerating dry food does not deter pests as they are not attracted to it.Rate this question:
