The Importance of Pest Control and how it Helps a Business | Martim Gois & Zain Jaffer

As a business owner, you want your customers to feel comfortable and safe. How would you like it if they were worried about being bitten by bugs? 
 
Pest control is not just for homes; Businesses need pest control too! 

Pests can cause several problems in the workplace, from distracting employees to contaminating food products with bacteria. Learn more about how pest control protects your business and what you should be looking for when selecting an exterminator.

Valpas has created what appears to be the world's first connected bed bug prevention system that both improves the bottom line and the guest experience. And while technology is at the core of the product, the startup matches biological science with the IoT to build an affordable and reliable system to eliminate an expensive and stressful headache for hoteliers: bed bug infestations.

Valpas also has an interesting origin story. It developed as an off-shoot of an existing bed bug eradication service. The founders found the need for a hotel-specific system that not only eliminates the ghastly cost of eliminating bed bugs but also guarantees guests a bed-bug-free stay.
