About Pest Control

Treatment methods explained in plain terms

Bait stations hold poison that workers carry back to the nest. Sprays leave a residual barrier on baseboards and entry points. Dusts fill wall voids where sprays cannot reach. Heat treatment raises room temperature above 50 degrees Celsius for several hours to kill bed bugs in all life stages.

Warranty and follow-up visits

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.

Understanding Treatment Timeframes by Pest Type

Treatment time depends on the pest. Ant baits take 7 to 14 days to reduce colonies. Roach gel shows results in 5 to 10 days. Bed bug heat treatment works in 1 day, but sprays need 2 to 3 weeks. Termite treatments may require 30 to 90 days of monitoring. Ask the technician for a clear timeline for your specific case.

Documentation You Should Keep After Service

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.

Common pests treated in homes

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.

Safety around children, pets, and pregnant people

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.

How to prevent pests from coming back

Seal cracks wider than 3 mm around pipes and vents. Store food in hard containers. Take rubbish out at least every 2 days. Trim branches at least 30 cm from the roof. Fix dripping taps within 24 hours. Schedule a preventive inspection every 6 months even if you see no activity.

Red Flags When Hiring a Pest Control Company

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.

How Long Pest Control Products Last Indoors

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.

Inspection: what the technician should check

A proper inspection covers the attic, crawl spaces, basement, garage, utility rooms, and the perimeter outside. The technician should open outlet covers, look behind appliances, and check moisture meters. A written report with photos, locations, and species identified is a sign of serious work.
