A general pest treatment is the booking we take most often in Ocean Grove. It is one visit that deals with the everyday crawling pests coastal homes see: spiders, cockroaches, ants, silverfish and earwigs. It suits owners who like the house treated once a year, short stay home owners getting ready for summer, and anyone who has noticed more insects inside than usual.
When you call, we ask about the size of the home, whether it is a house, unit or beach house, and what you have been seeing. We give you upfront pricing and book a nearby independent crew for a time that suits. The crew starts with a walk through the home and yard, looks at where pests are getting in and then treats the places that matter.
- Gel bait in kitchen and bathroom cupboards for cockroaches
- A spray around the outside walls, eaves, decks and window frames
- Dust in the roof space and wall cavities where it is needed
- Treatment of ant nests and trails in sandy yards and paths
- Tips on mulch, gaps and clutter after the visit
To get ready, clear the benches, empty the cupboards under the sinks and move stored items away from the walls in the garage or shed. Put pet food and bowls away and tell us about pets or fish tanks when you book. If you have had pests in a certain room before, mention it so the crew can look there first. The crew will explain how long to keep people and pets off freshly sprayed areas.
Many homes in Ocean Grove book a general treatment in spring, before the holiday crowds arrive and the warm weather brings insects out in numbers. Call 03 7053 9843 to book a general pest treatment.
