Kiwa has launched ‘Mouse Diaries’, a new campaign designed to shift the conversation around pest management from reaction to prevention. The campaign reflects a simple but important truth: by the time pest activity becomes visible, risk has often already built up. For businesses operating in high-pressure environments, that matters. Pest-related issues are not just a hygiene concern. They can affect compliance, disrupt operations, undermine customer confidence and put reputation at risk. ‘Mouse Diaries’ has been created to bring that reality into sharper focus and encourage a more strategic view of pest management.

In today’s complex food manufacturing and storage environments, maintaining a pest-free facility is more challenging than ever.
