PEST AND CONTROL MEASURES

It is the management policy that pest control is carried out on a regular

basis and that the Housekeeping Department has an overall responsibility to
co-ordinate between the contractors and all departments.

The purpose of this policy is to ensure that the Hotel premises are
refrained from all pests, to ensure problem areas can be identified and
effective measures can be taken promptly and to ensure that the minimum
disturbance is caused to the operation of the Hotel and our guest.

Pest control contractor will be guided and accompanied by

Housekeeping staff for security and job performance control purpose.

Identify the common house insects and pests.

Typical household bugs can vary greatly depending on where you live, but
some of the most common house pests include ants, bed bugs, cockroaches,
and flies, not to mention rodents. To determine what kind of pests you are
dealing with, we recommend using our bug identifier above, as well as hiring a
pest control professional.

Depending on the common house bug infestation you have, a pest

control professional (also known as an exterminator) can provide you with a
plan to eradicate these pests from your home and prevent future infestations.
Use the pest and insect identification guide above to get started.

Types of Pest Control service:

There are three basic treatments in controlling pests:

1. Rodenticide Treatment (e.g. Laying of rat bait)

2. Insecticide Treatment (e.g. Spraying of Insecticide)
3. Fungicides (e.g. Flying Insects Control and Fumigation).
