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.
Common mistakes homeowners make
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.
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.
Preparing Your Home Before the Technician Arrives
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.
How long a treatment takes to work
Baits can take 5 to 14 days to reduce a colony. Sprays kill on contact within hours but lose power after 2 to 3 weeks. Bed bug heat treatments work in 1 day but need a follow-up inspection after 10 days. Termite treatments often need 30 to 90 days of monitoring.
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.
How Weather and Season Affect Pest Activity
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.
What pest control companies actually do
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.
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.
What Types of Service Plans Are Available
Most pest control companies offer three main plans: one-time service, quarterly, or monthly contracts. One-time service targets a current problem. Quarterly plans cover preventive visits every 3 months. Monthly contracts suit homes near wooded areas or with recurring issues. Each plan includes inspection, treatment, and follow-up checks, but the number of visits and the included pests vary.
