Are pest control chemicals safe?
They can be, when the right products are used in the right places at the right rate. Our approach is targeted: treat where pests live and travel, avoid unnecessary exposure, explain dry times, and document what was used.
Six safety rules on every job
Target harbourage, not living space
We apply products where pests hide and move: cracks, voids, hinges, skirtings, roof voids, sub-floors, eaves and entry points.
Use the lowest practical disruption
Gel bait, dust and transfer products can often solve the problem without blanket spraying the home.
Respect dry times
Where wet products are used, people and pets stay away from treated surfaces until dry.
Protect food and water
Food prep surfaces, pet bowls, aquariums, edible gardens and sensitive areas are discussed before treatment starts.
Explain after-care
We tell you what to clean, what not to clean immediately, what pest activity to expect, and when to call us back.
Document the job
Treatment records can include products used, areas treated, licence details and warranty notes.
What we ask you to tell us
- Children, pets, pregnancy, respiratory sensitivities or allergies in the home.
- Aquariums, reptiles, birds, edible gardens or sensitive water features.
- Rooms where food, medicine or baby items are stored.
- Any prior chemical treatments or DIY products recently used.
Simple rule
If a space or person needs special care, tell us before treatment. We can adjust the method, isolate areas, extend dry times or choose a non-spray option where appropriate.
