How is pest control priced?

Pest control is quoted based on property size, pest type, and severity of infestation. Post-flood treatments and termite treatments are always priced on inspection.

Why are pests worse during Lagos rainy season?

Heavy rain drives cockroaches, rats, and ants out of outdoor drains and burrows into buildings. Stagnant floodwater breeds mosquitoes within 48 hours. Humidity accelerates cockroach and termite reproduction. Pest activity in Lagos typically surges 200-300% between June and October.

How long does fumigation take?

A standard apartment takes 1-2 hours. You may need to vacate for 4-6 hours after treatment. Complex infestations require a follow-up visit in 2-4 weeks.

Can you treat mosquitoes specifically?

Yes. Our pest control specialists treat mosquito breeding grounds (stagnant water points), apply residual indoor sprays, and recommend larvicidal treatment for areas where standing water cannot be eliminated. Essential after flooding.

Is pest control safe for children and pets?

Our pros use approved, regulated chemicals. Always inform your pro about children and pets so they can advise accordingly. Vacate during treatment and ventilate before re-entering.
