Pest control for restaurants in Dubai
Dubai Municipality requires restaurants to maintain a documented pest control programme with a licensed provider. PestMan delivers monthly service with sealed gel-bait, UV fly traps, rodent stations in back-of-house, and a digital service log accessible to food safety auditors. The same food-safe, HACCP-documented programme covers cafés, bakeries, cloud kitchens, catering kitchens and supermarket food halls.

FAQs
Frequently asked questions
The questions restaurants operators ask before signing a service contract.
How often is restaurant pest control legally required in Dubai and Abu Dhabi?
Dubai Municipality and the Abu Dhabi Agriculture & Food Safety Authority (ADAFSA) both require licensed food establishments to maintain a contract with a registered pest control provider, and monthly service is the practical standard inspectors expect to see. PestMan runs a monthly after-hours programme with a contract and visit schedule on file, so your kitchen always has current documentation when a food-safety inspector arrives unannounced.
Do you provide the certificate and records I need for a HACCP or municipality inspection?
Yes. We maintain an on-site pest sighting log plus a digital service record that food-safety auditors can access, covering every visit, the products used, and trend data. We also supply product certificates with batch numbers and our valid pest control licence — exactly what HACCP audits and Dubai Municipality grade inspections ask for. Auditors look for proof of an active, documented programme, not just an annual receipt.
Will spraying contaminate my kitchen or food contact surfaces?
No — our method is built around food safety. We visit after closing so there's no daytime disruption, and we never spray near food preparation areas. Instead we place sealed, odourless gel-bait inside kitchen voids and equipment housings, use UV fly traps rather than aerosols, and keep treatments away from prep counters entirely. This protects your stock and surfaces while still controlling cockroaches, flies and rodents in back-of-house.
We keep getting small flies around the bar and drains — what's the fix?
Drain and fruit flies breed in the organic biofilm that builds up inside floor drains, under bar mats and behind equipment — so killing the adults does nothing while the breeding film remains. Our programme includes a quarterly biofilm drain treatment that digests the residue flies lay eggs in, combined with UV traps to capture adults. This source-based approach is what stops the recurring clouds of flies that surface-cleaning never resolves.
