Businesses
Shop, restaurant, office or apartment building in Massy: timing fits around your business and the photo report can be shown during a health inspection. For regular visits, a prevention contract is priced after a first visit.
Local ground: Essonne
In Essonne, the Orge, Yvette and Essonne valleys hold the moisture rats look for, large housing estates concentrate cockroaches around bin stores, and newer housing developments see ants arrive as early as spring.
In Massy, this context shapes the inspection: where to look for the first signs, which entry points to check first.
Signs to look for at home
- 01A business that serves the public or prepares food
- 02Pests that keep coming back despite one-off treatments
- 03A hygiene inspection or customer audit coming up
- 04A building with cellars, a car park or a rubbish chute
Recognise one of these signs? Note where you saw it: the technician will start there.
Year-round preventive monitoring: what the technician does
Areas and situations covered
- Restaurants, butchers, bakeries
- Shops and food stores
- Apartment blocks, social and private landlords
- Offices and business parks
- Hotels and aparthotels
- Warehouses and stockrooms
For a place that welcomes the public or handles food, finding a rat mid-service costs far more than a regular visit: stock thrown away, customers lost, even an administrative closure. Regulation (EC) No 852/2004 on the hygiene of foodstuffs also requires food businesses to have pest control procedures in place.
Year-round monitoring sets up a permanent system: numbered monitoring stations on a site plan, visits at fixed intervals, entry points gradually sealed and a log kept up to date. If you notice activity between two visits, an extra visit is included in the contract: that is what active vigilance means.
Sentinel Protocol
Four stages, in this order, in Massy as everywhere else
The technician treats nothing before understanding the problem, and does not leave without sealing or flagging the entry points.
Step 1
Inspect
Initial site visit, plan of sensitive areas and numbering of monitoring stations.
Step 2
Treat
Appropriate treatment as soon as activity is recorded, baits and traps serviced at every visit.
Step 3
Sanitise
Entry points gradually sealed and written instructions for staff, the caretaker or the managing agent.
Step 4
Follow up
Scheduled visits, log and reports kept current, an extra visit included whenever activity is noticed.
Massy: your questions before booking
Do you come out to Massy?
Yes: Massy (91300) is within our area, like the rest of Essonne and Île-de-France. Two-hour slots run from 8 am to 8 pm, seven days a week.
How is a contract priced in Massy?
After a first visit to the site: the number of control points and the visit frequency set the amount, which you receive in writing before committing.
Do you also work in Évry-Courcouronnes and Corbeil-Essonnes?
Yes. Évry-Courcouronnes, Corbeil-Essonnes and Palaiseau: these towns in Essonne are covered on the same terms as Massy, with the same price and the same protocol.
What do I get after the treatment?
The same day, a photo report by email: signs found in Massy, treatment applied, entry points sealed or still to seal, and advice to limit the risk of a return.
In a co-owned building, who should take out the contract?
For common areas (cellars, bin stores, car parks), it is normally the syndic, the building's managing agent, acting on behalf of the co-owners. Each owner or tenant remains responsible for their own flat and can book a visit separately.
How many visits a year?
From four visits a year for a building with no history to a monthly visit for a commercial kitchen. The frequency is set after the initial visit and can change depending on what we observe.
