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.
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.
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.
Ask each company for a written quote listing the pests covered, treatment method, number of visits, and warranty length. Compare the square metres included, since quotes under 80 m² differ from those over 150 m². Check if the quote covers indoor and outdoor areas. The cheapest option often excludes garage, attic, or garden, so verify the scope carefully.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
