What is a Pest Control Treatment?

Share this post

The general pest control treatment typically eradicates Ants, Silverfish, Cockroaches and spiders

These specific pests are most common in the hot Australian weather, and especially in Brisbane. Therefore, a general pest control treatment is a useful way to keep the majority of homes pest free.

How does the Pest Control treatment work?

It begins with a thorough inspection of the property, along with some assistance of the homeowner or tenant to tell us what pests are particularly the problem.

Finding nests or evidence to suggest where they are coming from is the main objective at this point.

Based on the inspection, a professional will tailor a treatment plan that is specific to the pests present and their location on the property. The treatment plan depends on the chemical and application, the areas treated, and the method of treatment.

For example, one common chemical is Temprid. The common areas treated are cupboards and skirting boards on the interior of a property, and walls, window sills, weep holes and gardens on the exterior of a property.  Some common methods of application are spraying, and gels for Cockroaches & Ants.

How long does it work for?

We typically see about 9-12 months out of our treatments depending on weather and treatment conditions. However, one of the most important parts of the pest control treatment is the after-care – maintaining an environment where the treatment can be most effective for the longest time.

Below is what you should do to keep the treatment effective as long as possible:

  • No mopping for at least a week
  • Don’t wash external walls or windows as long as practically possible
  • Don’t leave exposed food or crumbs as it adds unnecessary pest pressure

Note that it can take up to 3-4 weeks to see the full results of a general pest control treatment. So, you will gradually see better and better results until there are no pests left in or around your home.
