Ants Extermination Service
Introduction to Ants
Ants are the most industrious pests to invade your restaurant/café. They enter your premises through small cracks and leave trails for others to join them, with colonies sizing up to 500,000. As ants have varying life cycles, remedies are incapable of targeting different kinds of ant infestation.
Why Do I Have an Ant Infestation?
It's important to know what attracts ants to your restaurant and what you can do to help remove them from your premises. Ants are always in search of food, water, and shelter. If you don't clean up food crumbs and water spillage, you are likely to attract ants. Small cracks in walls can also provide shelter, and sealing them can reduce the chance of an ant infestation. ORIGIN offers several treatment options to best suit your restaurant/café and family and eradicate your ant invasion problems.
Cockroach Extermination Service
The Sneaky Cockroach
Cockroaches are intruders that infiltrate restaurants and businesses through small openings, drain pipes, and even by hitching a ride on you. They are highly resilient and reproduce rapidly. They thrive in unsanitary conditions and spread germs and bacteria through their legs. Once they establish an infestation, over-the-counter solutions are usually ineffective. In Singapore, there are two types of cockroaches that are most commonly seen: American and German cockroaches. While German cockroaches are smaller, around 1-2 cm, American cockroaches are larger, with sizes between 4-5 cm.
Contact ORIGIN for cockroach pest control in Singapore and we’ll thoroughly inspect the area and provide you with professional advice on how to keep cockroaches away.
Rodent Extermination Service
When You Smell a Rat...
Rodents are particularly challenging pests as they can transmit serious diseases, reproduce rapidly, and have strong protective instincts. While there are many types of rodents, the most common rats found in Singapore are the Norway Rat, Roof Rat, House Mouse and Asian House Shrew, found in sewers, within kitchens and buildings and outdoors respectively. Rodents are mammals and, like humans, have front teeth for gnawing and cheek teeth adapted for chewing. Their teeth never stop growing, and to constantly wear them down, rodents resort to chewing on anything available, causing great damage in and around homes. Their biology and habits make them a challenge to control.
A pair of male and female rats have the potential to become an infestation of thousands of rats in just one year. If you notice any signs of rats in your restaurant/café/kitchen, it's important to contact a professional rodent control company promptly to prevent further spread. At ORIGIN Exterminators, we have 40+ years of experience in effectively eliminating rat issues and ensuring comprehensive control and protection. By integrating rodent monitoring with proven control methods, we provide a comprehensive approach to combatting rodent infestations.
Mosquitoes Extermination Service
Don't Let Mosquitoes Breed
Mosquitoes are deadly because they transmit viruses that cause fatal diseases. Even if the viruses are not fatal, the reactions can range from mild irritation to swelling. The common species in Singapore are Aedes, Anopheles, and Culex, which breed rapidly in even the smallest pools of stagnant water in nearby areas.
Effective mosquito control is crucial for a healthier living environment and to reduce the likelihood of disease. Get the help of a professional to eliminate any breeding possibility of mosquitoes in and around your area.
ORIGIN does offer a combination of fogging, larviciding, and source reduction if this is your preference. However we do recommend our 3+1 Mosquito Management Programme instead. Our ultimate aim is to keep mosquitoes out of your premises. Trust ORIGIN for expert mosquito control in Singapore Commercial spaces.
Flies Extermination Service
Shoo, Fly, Don't Bother Me
From buzzing around food, landing on waste, and perching on home surfaces, a fly infestation is a global and persistent nuisance in outdoor and indoor environments. These troublesome winged pests can become a source of significant health and hygiene concerns. They are infamous carriers of bacteria and pathogens that spread diseases like E. coli, salmonella, and several types of food poisoning. Furthermore, their ability to reproduce rapidly makes fly control in Singapore essential.
Why Do I Have a Fly Infestation?
Fly infestation is primarily linked to environmental conditions favourable to their survival and breeding. Only fly pest control can eradicate the infestation if your premises provide a breeding site with organic matter like garbage or food residue. Additionally, poor sanitation practices like leaving the waste bins open, not disposing of the trash properly, and not wiping down surfaces contribute to the fly infestation. ORIGIN Exterminators is a trusted brand for fly control in Singapore and can address all the factors that give rise to flies.
Stored Product Pests Extermination Service
About Stored Product Pests
Stored product pests, or "pantry pests," are insects—primarily beetles and moths—that infest stored food, grains, and dried materials, causing damage through larval feeding.
Why Do I Have a Stored Product Pests Infestation?
Stored product pests usually appear when dry food items like rice, flour, grains, or packaged goods are stored improperly or left exposed. These pests often enter your premises through infested raw ingredients from suppliers or warehouses and then spread quickly in warm, humid conditions. Poor storage practices, such as using unsealed containers, infrequent cleaning of cupboards, and long-term storage of food, create an ideal environment for them to breed and multiply.
Frequently Asked Questions
Cockroach infestations are the number one concern for Singapore's food establishments — a single sighting can result in an NEA demerit point and severe reputational damage. Flies, rodents, and ants are also common in kitchens and storage areas. ORIGIN's restaurant pest control service is specifically designed to tackle the full range of pests found in high-risk F&B environments.
ORIGIN only uses SFA-approved, food-safe formulations in areas where food is prepared, stored, or served. Our experts are trained in food safety pest control best practices, including correct placement of bait stations, avoidance of spray treatments near food contact surfaces, and compliance with NEA and SFA inspection requirements. All service reports are structured to support audit documentation.
ORIGIN prioritises urgent requests from active F&B operations. A pest sighting before or during service can put your entire operation at risk. Contact us immediately and our team will arrange the fastest possible response.

Yes. Beyond pest treatment, ORIGIN provides professional advice on housekeeping practices, storage protocols, and structural modifications that reduce pest risk and support NEA compliance. Our service documentation is designed to demonstrate due diligence, and our experts are experienced in preparing F&B clients for scheduled and surprise inspections.
ORIGIN offers a range of fly control solutions for F&B environments, including discreet Insect Light Traps (ILTs), targeted residual treatments for drain areas, and physical proofing recommendations. Our experts assess the specific fly species present — whether houseflies, drain flies, or fruit flies — and select treatments accordingly for the most effective fly pest control outcome.
Not necessarily. Gel-bait cockroach treatments are food-safe, odourless, and can be applied without closing your kitchen. More comprehensive spray treatments may require a short closure period, typically scheduled for after closing time. ORIGIN will always recommend the least disruptive option that effectively addresses your cockroach infestation.
HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) is a food safety framework that requires systematic identification and control of food safety hazards, including pests. Many SFA-licensed food businesses and all HACCP-certified establishments require a structured pest management programme that aligns with their HACCP plan. ORIGIN provides HACCP-compliant pest management documentation and service protocols for F&B clients pursuing or maintaining certification.
