Full Pest Control Package for Car Showroom in Glenmarie
Su Lin contacted Mr Pest Control Shah Alam after dealing with a persistent pest problem at their 15,000 sqft car showroom in the Glenmarie area. What started as a minor concern had grown into a situation affecting their showroom presentation and customer experience.
The Problem
The property โ a large showroom with service bay, high ceilings, and roller shutters โ was dealing with a combination of bird, rat, and cockroach issues that had been worsening for several weeks. Su Lin had tried basic remedies but the problem persisted.
When our technician arrived for the free inspection, the findings were concerning:
- Bird nesting in high ceiling rafters with droppings on display vehicles
- Rat activity along roller shutter tracks and service bay storage areas
- Cockroach harbourage in staff pantry and washroom areas
- Multiple entry points through roller shutter gaps and pipe penetrations
Properties in the Glenmarie industrial area often face these challenges due to the mix of commercial, warehouse, and food outlet properties in close proximity.

Our Approach
Based on the inspection findings, we developed a multi-pronged treatment plan specific to this commercial automotive property. The approach addressed all three pest types simultaneously:
- Birds: Bird deterrent installation on ceiling beams and nesting area exclusion
- Rats: Bait stations along perimeter, snap traps in service bay, entry point sealing at roller shutters
- Cockroaches: Gel bait in pantry and washrooms, residual spray along baseboards and entry points
Treatment Process
- Preparation: Our team prepared the treatment area, ensuring all safety protocols were followed. Su Lin was briefed on what to expect and any precautions needed for the showroom vehicles.
- Primary treatment: We applied targeted treatments using professional-grade products and equipment. Every identified problem area was addressed โ no shortcuts, no areas skipped.
- Entry point management: All identified access points including roller shutter gaps, pipe penetrations, and ceiling openings were treated or sealed.
- Environmental modification: We provided specific recommendations on waste management, food storage in the staff area, and structural improvements to reduce pest attraction.

Results
The treatment delivered clear results within the expected timeframe. At the follow-up inspection, pest activity had been eliminated from all previously affected areas. Su Lin reported no further sightings or signs of activity โ and most importantly, no more bird droppings on the display vehicles.
The treatment included our standard warranty โ if pests return during the warranty period, we retreat at no extra cost. We also set up a monthly maintenance plan to ensure long-term protection for the showroom.
"I wish I had called professionals earlier instead of wasting time with DIY solutions. The team was thorough, explained everything clearly, and the results speak for themselves. No more pest problems in our showroom."
