In the maritime environment, pests can go unnoticed until they affect operations; therefore, recognizing early signs is key to intervening promptly. The most common signs include persistent odors in pantries or bilge, debris or droppings in kitchen areas, noise or nocturnal activity in the engine room, and minor damage to insulation, packaging, or wiring.
Our approach prioritizes a swift and respectful inspection following onboard protocols, assessing the real scope of the problem and its impact on safety, health, and the continuity of the voyage. With a systematic review of critical areas, we determine if a targeted treatment, a comprehensive fumigation, or reinforced prevention measures are required. This allows for quick and safe decisions, minimizing downtime and avoiding more invasive last-minute interventions.
Cockroaches on boats? Bedbugs on yachts? Mosquitoes on deck and in the bilge? They will no longer be a problem, thanks to our fumigation of yachts and boats, or our heat treatment against pests on boats, among other services. The goal is to preserve hygiene, protect the boat's reputation, and ensure the proper functioning of your vessel.
At Control de Plagas Levante, we turn warning signs into concrete actions: a timely professional inspection, a precise treatment, and safer navigation. With orderly and traceable processes, the vessel gains control and predictability, avoiding surprises in port and maintaining the operational standard required by crew, guests, and authorities.
On recreational boats and ships, especially in the Levante area (Guardamar del Segura, San Pedro, La Manga, Mazarrón...), incidents usually occur where there are provisions, textiles, moisture, and wiring, so identifying the affected area speeds up the response and reduces the operational impact.
In the kitchen and pantry, cockroaches leave debris and odors, contaminate surfaces, and force the disposal of provisions; here, the intervention prioritizes targeted treatments in joints, baseboards, and access points, with high-efficacy bait and sealing of entry points to restore service without delay.
In cabins and textile areas, bedbugs hide in seams, bed bases, and upholstery; in this case, we act with a thorough inspection, controlled heat or chemical treatment, and reinforcement of washing and bagging protocols, maintaining discretion to protect the experience of the crew and guests.
On the deck and in the bilge, mosquitoes proliferate due to stagnant water in drains or poorly ventilated areas; we act by controlling sources, adjusting drainage, using specific larvicides, and improving ventilation, reducing bites and discomfort during maneuvers.
In the engine room and technical spaces, rodents cause damage to wiring, insulation, and ducts; a rodent control program is installed with secure, monitored bait stations, physical barriers, and order/cleanliness in storage rooms to prevent re-entry and avoid breakdowns. When the risk affects the hold or cargo, adjacent sections and spaces are inspected to determine if a local treatment or a broader action is appropriate.
The goal is to resolve it quickly and correctly the first time with a zoned plan: specific inspection, focused treatment, correction of conditions that favor the pest, and subsequent verification. With clear recommendations for the crew, the boat is stabilized, interruptions are minimized, and the problem is prevented from spreading to other areas.
Onboard intervention aligns with good safety practices in confined spaces and with specific procedures for the kitchen, cabins, holds, and bilge, prioritizing authorized products and methods for a safe return to activity. Work windows are planned during stopovers, proper signage is used, and ventilation and re-entry are verified after treatments, ensuring that the crew and guests can resume their duties in complete safety.
The treatments are selected according to risk and environment: targeted disinsection for cockroaches and provision areas, controlled thermal or chemical protocols for bedbugs in textiles and furniture, environmental control and larvicides for mosquito sources, and rodent control with secure, monitored stations in the engine room.
When appropriate, fumigation techniques are used in holds with sealing and monitored recirculation, always with exposure control and subsequent ventilation.
We start each service with a detailed inspection of the boat, identifying critical points susceptible to pests such as the kitchen, pantry, cabins, bilge, and engine room. We assess signs like debris, odors, damage to wiring or textiles, and signs of activity in hard-to-reach corners, as well as analyzing conditions of humidity, ventilation, and provision storage.
This phase is key to designing an intervention strategy adapted to the type and use of the vessel, adjusting processes so as not to interfere with operations, ensuring the safety of the crew and guests, and complying with navigation and maritime health standards.
With a clear diagnosis, we select biocides, gels, baits, or thermal/environmental methods according to the detected pest and the affected area. The intervention is organized to coincide with the stopover or scheduled stop, reducing the impact on life on board and ensuring a quick return to operability.
The treatments are applied in accordance with regulations and safety protocols for confined spaces, prioritizing authorized products and techniques that minimize exposure to people, food, and sensitive equipment. Each application is recorded to ensure traceability and facilitate control in future inspections.
After the treatment, we periodically check the key areas to confirm the elimination of the pest and prevent re-infestations, carrying out on-site measurements and reviews. If new indicators are detected, we intervene immediately and adapt the relevant corrective measures to solve the problem.
In addition, we offer practical guidance to the crew on sealing food, cleaning, humidity control, and regular inspection of access points. With this plan, the vessel maintains its high hygiene standards and is ready to continue its route without surprises or delays.
