Indoor treatments focus on baseboards, cracks, and hiding spots using gel, dust, or low-odor sprays. Outdoor treatments create a 1 to 2 metre barrier around the foundation using liquid or granular products. Some pests require both zones. Ask whether your quote covers perimeter spraying, since outdoor work usually adds 20 to 40 percent to the total cost.
Using supermarket sprays before the technician arrives can scatter a colony and make it harder to treat. Storing food in open boxes, leaving pet bowls out overnight, and ignoring small leaks under the sink all attract pests back. Skipping the recommended yard treatment often cancels indoor results within weeks.
Look for droppings, gnaw marks on wood or wiring, shed wings near windows, small piles of sawdust, grease trails along walls, and unusual smells. In kitchens, check under the sink and behind the fridge. Catching an infestation in the first 2 to 4 weeks usually cuts the treatment cost in half.
Warm months above 20°C boost ant, mosquito, and cockroach activity. Rodents enter homes when temperatures drop below 10°C. Spring triggers termite swarms. Heavy rain drives silverfish and earwigs indoors. Knowing the season helps you time preventive treatments and explains why infestations often seem sudden, since populations build quietly for weeks before being noticed.
Most reputable companies offer a 30 to 90 day warranty on general pests and 6 to 12 months on termite work. The warranty should cover retreatments at no extra cost if activity returns. Get the warranty in writing, including which rooms and which pests it covers, before any work begins.
The most requested services target ants, cockroaches, rodents, termites, spiders, wasps, fleas, and bed bugs. Each pest needs a different method. Treating ants is not the same as treating termites, so a good company asks you to describe the pest, droppings, damage, or bite marks before quoting a price.
Avoid companies that quote by phone without visiting the property. Refuse cash-only payments and companies without a registered license number on the quote. Be cautious if the technician refuses to show product labels or explains safety measures. Also avoid pressure tactics urging a 12-month contract before any inspection has taken place.
Ask if the company is licensed in your area, carries liability insurance, and employs certified applicators. Request the product names, the warranty terms, and the number of follow-up visits included. Ask for references from similar jobs in the last 6 months and the technician's years of experience.
A pest control company inspects your home, identifies the pest, and applies treatments to remove or control it. Most visits last 30 to 60 minutes. The work can include bait stations, sprays, traps, dusts, or heat treatments, depending on the species and the level of infestation found during the inspection.
A proper inspection report includes the date, technician name, rooms checked, pests identified, and severity level. It should note entry points like cracks wider than 3 mm, moisture areas, and signs of nesting. Photos are standard. Ask for a copy before any treatment begins, so you know exactly what was found and what areas need attention.
