Fact Sheet For General Pest Control Sprays
- You don’t have to do any preparation before you get a general spray done in your home. Therefore there is no need to empty any cupboards before the pest controller arrives (only if there is a bad infestation of German Cockroaches).
- The chemicals used for a general pest control spray are totally safe for your family and pets. However, we do recommend that any pet food and water bowls be removed prior to treatment and cleaned after treatment. The chemicals, however, used may harm reptiles and fish. We recommend that reptiles are removed, that fish tanks are covered, and the aerator pumps are turned off during treatment and ½ an hour after treatment.

- If you are moving into a new home and would like to have it sprayed, it is best to have it done before you move in to ensure complete coverage of the sprayed areas, i.e. no furniture to spray around and all cleaning is done.

- If the house is vacant, the power needs to be turned on so the job can be fully completed, as we treat the roof void with an electric applicator.
- For best results, any painting or cleaning, including carpet cleaning should be done prior to the pest control being carried out. Do not clean down spider webs, and this should be done 7 – 10 days after the treatment. Cleaning windows should also be left until after the job is done.
- Once the spray has been carried out in your home, windows can be cleaned using newspaper or a squeegee with cleaning agents. DO NOT HOSE DOWN THE WINDOWS OR HOUSE.
- Brush spider webs down 7 – 10 days after the pest control spray has been done.
- A general pest control treatment covers spiders, silverfish, cockroaches and coastal brown ants. It does not include termites, borers, rodents or fleas. These pests require a separate treatment, and a fee is charged accordingly.
- The general spray is a residual treatment. The initial spray will kill any pests that are present. Pests that come in contact with the residue will not always die instantly. They become sick and eventually die.
- If pests have only just come in contact with the residue they can appear quite normal. If they are in areas where they would not usually be seen, such as in the middle of the floor or wall during the day, the best thing to do is to monitor their condition. If new pests are continually being seen, then a callback may be necessary.
- A general pest control treatment should be carried out annually (or 6 monthly for problem areas) from the date of initial treatment to maintain a pest-free home for you and your family.
- To reduce the likelihood of an infestation of cockroaches, ants and mice in your home, you need to ensure that any food scraps and crumbs are cleaned daily from floors, bench-tops and bins.
- Leaking plumbing and appliances entice cockroaches, which carry diseases, to breed around these areas as they need moisture and also create a risk for termite infestation.
- Each pest control operator is local and trained in the specific problems in your area, so he will be able to find the problem faster and treat it in the best, safest and most economical manner.
