Ask the technician exactly which product is being applied, its safety sheet, and the re-entry time. Most modern products dry in 1 to 2 hours. Bait stations are usually safer than broadcast sprays around toddlers and cats. Request child- and pet-safe options before the visit if needed.
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.
Prices depend on pest type, property size, infestation level, number of visits, and treatment method. A single-room flea job can cost far less than a whole-house termite treatment. Severe infestations needing 3 to 4 follow-up visits raise the total. Always ask what is included in the quote.
Keep the service ticket, product labels, safety data sheets, and warranty terms in one folder. Note the date of each visit and the products applied. This paperwork matters when selling your home, dealing with landlords, or making insurance claims. If a company refuses to leave written documentation, consider that a serious warning sign about their process.
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.
If you see live pests in treated areas after 14 days, the treatment failed. Other warning signs include new droppings, fresh gnaw marks, or activity during daylight, since most pests are nocturnal. A failed treatment often means wrong product, wrong placement, or an untreated nest. Request a free follow-up visit if your contract includes a guarantee.
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.
Indoor residual sprays last 30 to 90 days depending on airflow and sunlight exposure. Gel baits dry out after 2 to 3 weeks and need replacement. Dust products in wall voids can last 6 months if dry. Outdoor barriers break down faster, usually every 45 to 60 days. Ask the technician when your specific treatment needs reapplication.
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.
Clear kitchen counters, store food in sealed containers, and mop floors the night before. Move furniture 30 cm away from walls where treatment will be applied. Cover fish tanks and unplug aquariums during spraying. Keep children and pets away for at least 4 hours after treatment. Good preparation helps the product reach all target areas properly.
