How long does a pest treatment last?
The effectiveness of a pest treatment can vary depending on the type of pest, the treatment used, and environmental factors around your home. In general, treatments for common household pests like ants, cockroaches, or spiders can last upwards to 12 months. However, environmental factors such as rain or other things such as landscaping around a home can result in a pests, such as ants coming back prior to the end of the 12 months. If this is so, we offer a warranty period where we come back no questions asked and sort out the problem free of charge.
What should I do to prepare for pest treatment?
Before treatment, it’s helpful to tidy up areas where pests are active, vacuum floors, and store food items securely. Pets and children should be kept away from treated areas until it’s safe to return—your technician will provide clear guidance. For certain pests, like fleas or cockroaches, extra preparation such as washing pet bedding or emptying cupboards may be needed.
Are pest treatments safe for people and pets?
When applied correctly by licensed professionals, pest treatments are safe for your family and pets. The products used comply with Australian Standards and are selected to minimise risk. You may be advised to stay out of treated areas for a short time while products dry or settle, but your technician will explain any precautions clearly.
Are pest control sprays safe around my children and pets?
Yes. We only use the safest, latest, and fully tested products available. The treatments are also used in dentists, surgery’s, schools, child care centres, food manufacturing and many other sensitive situations. Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) are available on request. In the interests of being extra careful and for full peace of mind, there may be certain situations when we ask you to vacate the house during treatment.
Is there any smell when we spray for pests?
Generally, no, most treatments are odourless.
