A general pest treatment is the most common booking we take in Collingwood Park. It covers the everyday crawling pests that turn up in most Ipswich homes: cockroaches, ants, spiders and silverfish. You call, tell us what you have been seeing and roughly how big the home is, and we give you upfront pricing before anything is booked. Then we book a nearby independent crew for a time that suits you.
The crew we book starts with a look around the inside and outside of the home. They check kitchens, bathrooms and laundries, where pests find water, then move on to the roof void, the eaves, window frames, weep holes and garden beds. That walk-around tells them where the pests are living, so the treatment goes where it will do the most good rather than just where you saw one run across the floor. They will also point out things you can fix yourself, like a gap under the back door or a garden bed piled up against the slab.
A typical general treatment includes:
- Dust in the roof void to reach cockroaches and spiders sheltering there
- Spray along internal skirting boards and around doors and windows
- Bait gel in kitchen and bathroom cupboards for cockroaches
- An outside spray around the slab edge, eaves, fences and garden beds
- Spider webs brushed down from eaves and outdoor lights
Most homes in Collingwood Park book a general treatment once a year, often in spring before the summer heat brings numbers up. If you have pets or young children, tell us when you book so the crew can plan the work around them. To book general pest control, call 07 3543 7765 and we will sort out a time with a local team.
