Pest Control FAQs
Do I need to leave the house during pest control treatment?
This depends on the products and methods used. Some treatments can be carried out while you stay
in other rooms, while others require everyone, including pets, to be outside for a short period.
Your technician will explain the plan before work begins.
How long do pest control treatments last?
Many general pest treatments last several months, but effectiveness depends on weather, cleaning
habits and building design. Technicians can advise recommended re treatment intervals based on
your local pest pressure and style of home.
Are pest control products safe for children and pets?
Licensed pest controllers use registered products and follow label directions to manage risk. Many
households with children and pets use pest control services each year. You can ask your technician
to explain where products will be applied and any steps you should take after treatment.
What can I do to help prevent pests returning?
Simple steps such as storing food in sealed containers, fixing leaks, sealing small gaps and
keeping garden beds trimmed away from walls can all help. Your technician may point out specific
issues they notice during the visit so you can address them over time.
