FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How much will it cost?
Average 3-bedroom house inside and out - approx $280
Average 4-bedroom house inside and out - approx. $320
In all cases, this will be confirmed by an onsite visit before spraying.
Are your chemicals safe?
The chemicals we use are registered to be applied in hospitals, schools and public places. We do however recommend that you stay indoors whilst your pest treatment is being applied outside and stay outside whilst it is being applied inside. If you are pregnant or have young children we recommend leaving your home whilst the treatment is in progress.
For further information please visit manufacturers sites.
Do you offer a warranty of your services?
We do not give a time frame warranty because of numerous reasons which could result in non-performance, but we do ensure that we address any issue to the satisfaction of customer and ourselves. We manage our business this way because we cannot put effectiveness timelines on a State that has so many variables in its climatic conditions.
​
With respect to spraying inside premises, this is done to try to alleviate very difficult situations particularly with flies and is normally done on a cost only basis to help. The application is sprayed at the lower end of chemical toxicity.
How often do I need pest control?
For the average home, it is recommended to have pest control done annually.
How long will it take to do a pest control treatment?
There really isn't a set amount of time that it takes to do a treatment. They can range from half an hour to two hours depending on property size, how many bathrooms and bedrooms the property has, whether sheds etc are included.
What if I see a pest after treatment?
Our treatment will see a strong reduction in the level of pests. It's not unusual for pests to move about after treatment - for example, cockroach gels or baits are designed to encourage movement towards the bait.
Do I need to be at home?
If it is not suitable for you to be at home when we spray, please let us know to make suitable alternative arrangements.
Will my carpet, curtains, bedspreads be stained by the spray treatments?
The sprays we use are water based and do not stain surfaces.
​
Does rain affect the chemical?
Once the chemical has been applied and dried it is water resistant. However excessive storms can have an adverse impact. The good news is that in 90 % of all cases, the weathered side of the house is always the one with no doors, less windows so the effect is less noticeable.
​
How long will your ant treatment last?
Our treatment involves the use of a non-repellent liquid insecticide which means it won't kill ants on contact but is taken back to their colony where it is secreted to other members and over a short period of time that colony will die. Treatment should last for 3 months, however keep in mind other colonies may arise to replace the treated one.
​
Does the weather stop you from working?
Rain only affects the outcome of a treatment if it is actually raining whilst we are applying pesticide. If it is raining we will not carry out a treatment and will reschedule your appointment.
Are you licensed and insured?
Absolutely. We all carry the relevant Pest License with us - although we may not be the most photogenic bunch you've ever seen.
​
Is your product environmentally friendly?
Cislin25 is a general purpose public health insecticide based on a synthetic derivative of naturally occurring pyrethrum. A product from Bayer, the industry-leading company in the field of product stewardship, product safety expertise and commitment to addressing climate change.
​
Is there any odour when you spray for pests?
In a word - No.
​
What if me or my children are asthmatic?
As a precaution, please leave your home during treatment.
