A general pest treatment is the most common booking we take from Ferntree Gully. It covers the everyday insects that turn up in local homes, including ants, spiders, cockroaches and silverfish, in one visit. The crew treats the living areas, the outside of the house and the roof space, which is where many pests shelter out of sight.
When you call, tell us what you have been seeing, whether it is a house, townhouse or unit, and roughly how many bedrooms. We give you upfront pricing on the phone and book a nearby independent crew who works around Knox and the foothills every week. If you also have rats, mice or a wasp nest, we can add that to the same visit.
- An inside spray along skirting boards, door frames and window frames
- An outside spray around walls, eaves, fences and entry points
- Dust in the roof space and wall voids where pests shelter
- Checks of the garage, garden shed and subfloor where access allows
- Tips on gaps to seal and clutter to clear after the visit
Before the crew arrives, clear the floor along the walls, put food, toys and pet bowls away and make sure the manhole to the roof space can be reached. People and pets stay out of the treated rooms until the spray is dry, usually for a few hours. Cover fish tanks and turn off their pumps, and tell the crew about anyone at home with health concerns so they can plan around them.
Many families around Ferntree Gully book a general treatment each spring, before ants, spiders and cockroaches become busy in the warm weather. Call 03 7053 9848 to get a price and book.
