What it covers

What general pest treatment is designed to support

General pest treatment is intended for properties where the issue may involve more than one type of pest, where the pest activity is not yet fully identified, or where broader treatment support is more suitable than a single-service response.

Rather than treating the issue as a narrow one-pest problem from the outset, the approach is structured around the property conditions, the type of activity present, and the level of treatment support required.

Common issues

Common pest issues general treatment may help support

Depending on the property and the level of activity involved, general pest treatment may be relevant where one or more of the following issues are affecting the site:

Ant activity
Trails, nesting, or indoor activity across one or more areas of the property.
Cockroach activity
Indoor or outdoor cockroach presence, including German and wood cockroach species.
Rodent pressure
Rats or mice activity indoors, in roof spaces, or around the exterior of the property.
Fly issues
Persistent fly activity affecting indoor or outdoor areas of the property.
Flea activity
Flea presence in the home or property, often following pet activity or prior tenants.
Wasp-related issues
Wasp nests or ongoing wasp activity around the property or building exterior.
Spider pressure
Exterior or interior spider activity forming part of a broader pest treatment requirement.
Mixed or unidentified concerns
Activity that hasn't been clearly identified, or more than one pest concern affecting the property at once.

Where a more specific service is the better fit, treatment can also be directed through the most appropriate individual service pathway.

When to use this service

When general pest treatment can be the right starting point

General pest treatment can be a useful starting point in these situations. Where a more specific treatment path is clearly more appropriate, that can still be recommended based on the property and the pest issue involved.

More than one pest issue may be affecting the property
The activity is visible, but not yet clearly identified
The site would benefit from a broader pest control approach
The issue does not fit neatly into a single service category
Practical treatment support is needed before narrowing the issue further

Preparation and aftercare

Before and after treatment

Before treatment

What to do before we arrive

Preparation requirements can vary depending on the pest issue, the treatment areas involved, and whether the property is dealing with one or multiple concerns. As a general guide:

  • Vacate the property for a minimum of 3 hours from the time treatment is completed
  • Cover or put away food, cooking utensils, and clean dishes
  • Cover or remove fish tanks and reptile enclosures and switch off their air supply, as the products are harmful to cold-blooded animals
  • Put away pet food and water bowls, and remove hanging laundry
  • Clear access to skirtings, corners, exterior walls, and entry points
After treatment

What to expect afterwards

Aftercare guidance depends on the treatment approach, the areas involved, and the type of pest issue being managed. General guidance may include:

  • Ventilate the property on return. A heat pump on dehumidify, a dehumidifier, or a fan heater helps the treatment dry
  • Wipe down food preparation surfaces before use, ideally wearing gloves
  • Do not wash down treated interior or exterior walls, as this removes the residual product
  • Window cleaning is best done after treatment, as frames are treated and may show a light mist
  • Some activity may continue briefly as pests contact the treated surfaces; contact us if it has not settled within the warranty period

Any more specific aftercare relevant to the property will be confirmed directly after treatment.
