I think I might have termites, should I spray them first?

NO! We do not want the active termites to be disturbed.
Our Pest Control Technicians need to know where the active termites are.
Our Pest Control Technicans can quickly and easily assess the best termite treatment option for them. If the termite are disturbed they may retreat or  move to another area of the house making treatment more difficult.

I killed the termites I saw so I don't think I have them now?

There can be millions of termites in a single colony, just killing a few, or a few hundred that you see is not an effective treatment and will not elminate them. They will just move on. This may be somewhere in your house or your neighbour’s house.

What are the different methods for treatment Termites?

There are several different methods for treating termites depending on the type of property and infestation that you have. Please see our Termites Page for explanations of the different methods for keeping your home safe from termites.

Are your Pest Control chemicals safe for my children to be around?

Yes, our Pest Control Technicians  chemicals that are of low toxicity to humans and animals and are applied in such a way that reduces the amount of over spray. In kitchen cupboards we use a gel rather than spray for food safety. We only use original manufactured chemicals.

Are your Pest Management chemicals safe for my pets?

Yes, apart from birds or fish, we do a site assessment while we are treating your home. We will cover up or move any fish or birds. If this is not possible, we will no treat the direct area of birds or fish. We have not yet had a fatality of anyone’s fish or feathered family members and we plan to keep it that way.

Do I need to empty my cupboards or move my belongings?

No, with modern pest treatment technologies and current chemical production methods, nothing needs to be moved prior to our professional pest control treatment. Our Pest Control Technicians have the right pest management equipment and methods to work around everything in your home or commercial business. In kitchen cupboards, we do not spray. We use a gel which is discretely placed within the cupboards.

Will your gel contaminate my food?

No. The  gel is placed in discreet places where bugs, insects and vermin congregate such as hinges and cracks and crevices. It is not placed close to your food.

Does everything need to be washed after your Pest Control Treatment?

Our pest control treatments use chemicals which are of low toxicity to humans and animals. Everything does not need to be washed after a pest control treatment. Washing everything would deem the treatment ineffective as the chemicals laid would be washed away.

I also need my carpets cleaned, do you complete this, and which should be completed first?

No we don’t carry out Carpet Cleaning. We prefer to specialise in what we know. Pest Control !
If you are having your Carpets Cleaned this needs to be carried out before our Pest Control Service.

Will the Pest Control Treatment stain my walls and carpets?

No, our Pest Control Techmicians use a water based chemical which will not stain. There will be a light mist residue after the Pest Control Treatment however this will dry and be completely invisible.

What if I touch the wet area after you have sprayed it with chemicals?

This is not too much of a concern. Just wash your hands or rinse the part of the body that touched the wet area. The pest control chemicals we use are of low toxicity to humans and animals so there will be no reaction to the chemicals.

How do I know you will do the job properly?

Will I see insects after you have treated?

Yes, insects will always come inside, however they will soon die as they cross over the pest control chemical that our Pest Control Technicians have put down. This is why it is crucial to use the right type of chemical that leaves a long residual for long term pest protection.
