This World Food Safety Day (June 7, 2025), the theme “Food Safety: Science in Action” reminds us that protecting our food supply requires evidence-based approaches. At Innopest, we understand that pest control is a critical component of food safety that directly impacts public health and economic stability.

The Hidden Threat to Food Safety

Did you know that 600 million people fall ill annually from foodborne diseases, costing the global economy over USD 110 billion? While bacteria and chemical contaminants often grab headlines, pests represent an equally dangerous threat to food safety. Rodents, cockroaches, flies, and stored product insects can contaminate food at every stage – from production facilities to restaurants and homes.

Science-Driven Pest Management

Modern pest control isn’t just about spraying chemicals. At Innopest, we employ Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategies based on scientific research and data analysis. Our approach includes:

  • Risk Assessment: Identifying potential contamination points in food facilities
  • Environmental Monitoring: Using scientific methods to detect pest activity before contamination occurs
  • Targeted Treatment: Applying evidence-based solutions that eliminate pests while maintaining food safety standards
  • Continuous Monitoring: Regular inspections and data collection to prevent future infestations

Protecting Malaysia’s Food Chain

From palm oil processing plants to restaurant kitchens, Innopest’s certified technicians help maintain Malaysia’s food safety standards. We understand that “food safety is everyone’s business” – manufacturers, retailers, and food service providers all depend on effective pest management to protect consumers.

Our science-based approach aligns with international food safety protocols, ensuring Malaysian businesses can confidently serve safe, quality food to local and international markets.
