Age Care Pest Control

Age Care is a type of long-term care that helps older adults live as independently as possible in their homes or communities. It can include reliable services like Meals on Wheels, transportation to doctor's appointments, and help with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, and eating. Age Care can also provide respite care to give family caregivers a break from their caregiving duties.

Age Care services are designed to help people live safely and independently in their homes and communities for as long as possible. But, as we age, we may need more help with activities of daily living or have chronic health conditions that require special care. When this happens, Age Care can provide the support needed to maintain our health and well-being.

There are many different types of Age Care services, and the type of care you need will depend on your individual situation. Some Age Care services are free, while others may require a fee. You can get Age Care services through government programs, private insurance, or out-of-pocket payments

Retirement Village

A retirement village is a type of housing designed for older adults who can live independently but may want or need some extra services or amenities.

Retirement villages usually have a variety of housing options, as well as on-site amenities like restaurants, shops, and recreation facilities. They may also offer services like transportation, housekeeping, and healthcare.

Retirement villages can be a great option for older adults who want to downsize and simplify their lives, but don’t want to give up their independence. They can also provide a sense of community and belonging, which can be especially important as we age.

Nursing Home

A nursing home is a type of long-term care that provides 24-hour nursing care and supervision for older adults who can no longer live independently. Nursing homes can provide a variety of services, including help with activities of daily living, skilled nursing care, and rehabilitative therapies.

Nursing homes are typically used as a last resort for older adults who can no longer be safely cared for at home. But, they can also be a good option for people who need more care than what can be provided in aged care facilities or retirement villages.

Most Common Pests

The most common pests that can enter a retirement village or aged care facility are ants, cockroaches, bed bugs and rodents. Insects and rodents are both classified as a pest problem, as they can spread diseases and cause damage to crops, property and infrastructure. Insects are small creatures that have six legs, and three body parts and typically fly. They include well-known pests such as ants, bed bugs and cockroaches. Rodents are also small animals, but they have four legs and only two body parts. They include rats and mice. Both insects and rodents can be a nuisance, but they can also pose a serious health risk. Aged care pest control includes a thorough pest inspection to be able to manage pests, minimise pest problems from occurring and to provide the most effective pest control service for an aged care business.

Rodents (mice and rats)

Ants, Cockroaches and Bed bugs

The list of damage that rodents can cause in an aged care facility is long and terrifying.

Rodents gnaw on wiring, which can create fire hazards.
Rodents can cause a major health risk by contaminating food supplies with their urine and droppings, which can lead to food poisoning.

They also spread diseases like Salmonella and Hantavirus, and if that wasn't enough, they can also introduce other pests into the facility, like fleas and ticks.

All of this can have a devastating effect on the health of elderly residents. Many of them are already dealing with illnesses and diseases, and the last thing they need is to be exposed to these dangerous pests. Unfortunately, rodents are attracted to age care facilities because they offer food, water, and shelter.

To protect the vulnerable, it's essential to have commercial pest control completed by having a comprehensive pest control plan in place with appropriate measures and pest inspections for aged care facilities
