- If you keep food at your desk, store it in sealed containers made of glass, metal or heavy plastic.
- Make sure trash cans containing food debris are empty at night.
- If trash containing food debris cannot be removed by the end of the day, place it in a plastic bag, seal the bag and place it in a hallway or other designated area.
- Clean beneath, around and behind appliances to remove crumbs and other spilled food.
- Reduce or eliminate clutter—pests thrive in cluttered environments where they can hide while people are present.
