Get answers to common questions about our services
What types of insects do you treat?
We treat all common crawling insects including cockroaches (German and Oriental), ants (garden, pharaoh, and carpenter), spiders, silverfish, woodworm, carpet beetles, clothes moths, earwigs, and various beetle species. Each insect requires specific identification and tailored treatment approaches. Our certified technicians have expertise across all species and use appropriate methods for effective elimination.
How do I know which insect I have?
Professional identification is crucial as different insects require different treatments. We identify species through physical characteristics, behavior patterns, damage evidence, and location preferences. Many insects look similar to untrained eyes - for example, distinguishing between ant species or beetle types. Accurate identification ensures we use the most effective treatment, saving time and money.
Are crawling insects dangerous?
Some insects pose health risks. Cockroaches spread diseases and trigger asthma. Some spiders bite defensively. Woodworm damages structural timber. Carpet beetles destroy fabrics. Silverfish contaminate food. Most crawling insects are nuisances, but infestations create hygiene issues, property damage, and stress. Professional treatment eliminates risks and prevents escalating problems requiring costly remediation.
How long does insect treatment take?
Treatment time varies by insect type and infestation severity. Most treatments take 1-2 hours initially. Complete elimination typically requires 2-3 weeks as treatments affect different life stages. Some insects need multiple treatments spaced 7-14 days apart. We provide realistic timelines during inspection and schedule follow-ups as needed for guaranteed results.
Will treatment harm my pets or family?
Professional treatments are safe when applied correctly. We use approved products with proven safety profiles. During treatment, keep pets and family away from treated areas until dry (usually 2-4 hours). Once surfaces dry, treatments are safe but remain effective against insects. We provide detailed safety instructions and answer all concerns before treatment begins.
Can insects return after treatment?
Without addressing entry points and attractants, re-infestation is possible. Professional treatment eliminates existing populations, but prevention is equally important. We provide comprehensive advice on exclusion, sanitation, and monitoring. Follow-up treatments and preventive measures ensure long-term protection. Our warranty covers re-treatment if insects return within specified periods when recommendations are followed.
