What may not be realise is that flies carry nasty bacteria. When they land on food they leave deposits of  disease-causing organism.

What illnesses can be caused from flies?

Some of the illnesses caused by flies include

Where do flies breed?

Flies breed in bacteria filled areas such as faeces, human food waste and garbage and often very close to humans and animals.

Scientists predict that a single fly can carry roughly 60 different diseases and can transport over a million bacteria on its small body.

What do flies look like?

Adult flies range from  8–12 mm in length; their  thorax  is grey, with four long dark lines on the back. The entire body is covered with hair-like projections.

What are Maggots?

Maggots are the fly’s larvae.

What do maggots look like?

They can be easily recognised by their cream body. Maggots have a slender head and a thick blunt rear end.

There are 2 small openings towards the rear which look like kidney beans and are used to breathe and eat dead tissue.

When do flies breed?

Fly Pest Control Sydney – Flies breed in large numbers during the warmer months. Once a good source of food is found, flies will begin to breed, and maggots will hatch.

The fly lays its eggs, often in food, so that when the eggs hatch, there a food source for their hatch-lings.

What do maggot hatch-lings look like?

The maggot hatch-lings are approximately 2 mm in length and continue to grow until they are about 15 mm in length.

What does it mean if I see maggots?

If you see maggots then there is either rotting food, waste matter or a dead animal nearby.

Follow the direction the maggots are coming from to find the food source. However, it is important to note that maggots can travel long distances, so you may not find the food source.

If the source of the maggots is found, always wear gloves when removing it to protect yourself against infection or disease.

What to do when bees swarm?

Bee Swarm Sydney – When you find bees swarming it can be a scary sight, more so when bees are trying to come inside.

Bees can enter homes through vents, chimneys, doors, gaps under the door or through windows.

It is important to mention that bee allergies can be life threatening. It is important to take safety measures to protect yourself around a swarm.

Why Do Bees Swarm?

Swarming is a natural part of a bees reproductive life. Swarms often occur from September through to December.

A rise in temperature, ab abundance of nectar and pollen stimulate the colony to begin reproduction.

When the size of a bee colony increases overcrowding occurs, thus forcing the bees to search for a new home.

What Time Do Bees Swarm?

Bees will often emerge from their hives and begin to swarm on warm days between 11am -2pm.

How Long Do Bees Swarm For?

A swarm may be visible between 1-2 hours and in some cases can linger for a few days.

Are Bee Swarms Dangerous?

Bee swarms are not usually aggressive, however if the swarm is provoked or aggravated they will become defensive.

The longer a swarm is present the more defensive they will become.

What Should You Do If You Come Across A Bee Swarm?

  • Children and pets should be kept inside until the flight of bees have clustered onto a bush or tree
  • Keep children and pets away from the swarm
  • Always wear shoes outside in case bees have nested on the ground
  • Do not hose, poke or throw stones at the swarm
  • Interfering with the swarm will make it more difficult for a licensed pest control company to deal with.

German Cockroach Pest Control Sydney

 

Generally, with German cockroaches the further they move away from water the larger their populations. Once their nests become over crowded they are forced to go into rooms where there is no easy water supply.

Your pest control consultant will ask you what rooms you are seeing the German cockroaches in

Are they just confined to the kitchen, bathroom or laundry or have you seen any signs of German cockroaches in the lounge room or bedrooms?

How are German cockroaches treated?

 

PNP Pest Control Sydney uses a paste that is placed inside the kitchen, bathroom, laundry cupboards, behind your appliances and in other specific areas within the rooms that are affected.

How Does the Gel Work?

 

The gel is placed in the hinges of the cupboards and behind your appliances using a syringe and then hardens. The German cockroaches see this gel as a food source and will feed from it.

As cockroaches lick themselves clean, when they go back to the nest and other cockroaches start the cleaning process the chemical is passed amongst each other inside the nest.

Preparing for The German Cockroach Treatment

 

  • Clean up internally
  • clean behind the fridge if accessible
  • under the microwave
  • Limit the clutter within the house
  • Limit paper goods
  • throw out cardboard boxes and plastic bags

What to Expect After a German Cockroach Treatment

 

  • German cockroaches will be flushed out and will continue for up to 6 weeks
  • It is common to see baby German cockroaches coming out approx. 3- 4 weeks after the treatment
  • You should notice a 70-80% reduction in the first week and will continue to decrease

Do not be alarmed if you do not see any dead cockroaches, this does not mean that the treatment is not working as there is a possibility that they will die within their nests.

PNP Pest Control Recommends:

 

  • Cleaning ? Before the pest control treatment
  • Moving into a new property?  Pest control after cleaning & before moving in.
  • Painting? Finish it before pest control.
  • General Pest treatments should be carried out annually or 6 monthly for problem areas
  • Repair any leaking plumbing or appliances as they will invite cockroaches to your property

How Long Is the Warranty?

 

PNP Pest Control Sydney offers a 6-month warranty on our cockroach treatments

Bedbug Pest Control Sydney

Bed Bug Treatment Sydney

Bed Bug Treatment Sydney

Bed Bug Treatment Sydney

Preparation and Expectations

United in solving your pest issues

NOTE: bed bug treatments take time, there is no instant kill for bed bugs!

Before the treatment

What you need to do:

 

  • Wash all items in wardrobes and cupboards in hot water and eucalyptus oil.
  • Place in a hot dryer. If you cannot place in a hot dryer, FREEZE THE CLOTHES.
  • Place in plastic bags and wear your clothes in and out of the plastic bags for the next 6 weeks. Second treatments maybe be required but not before 4-6 weeks. This enables any live bed bugs and eggs that have hatched to come across the insecticide.
  • You are required to vacate the property for 4 hrs after the treatment has been conducted
  • If you are taking your clothing to a dry cleaner you should tell them that you have a bedbug issue at your property, so they can keep your clothing away from other customer’s clothes. Bedbugs can spread via clothing.

The Day of the treatment

What we will do : 

 

Internally:

We can either treat the entire residence (excluding kitchen) or just rooms.

Treatment areas:
  • Bed
  • Mattress
  • Bed Slats & Frame
  • Draws
  • Power points
  • Behind pictures
  • Carpet and edges
  • Floor boards
  • Behind electrical equipment
  • Anywhere else deemed necessary.

After the Treatment: 

 

Expectation

 

6 weeks – Follow up treatment may be required

What you may see:

 

  • Bed bugs will decrease over the next 6 weeks
  • 50% reduction in the first week.
  • You may still see and get bitten over the next few weeks, but that will decrease.

 

How are bed bugs treated?

 

We use a chemical application to all affected areas; this can be done to one room or the entire house, all depending on the rooms that are affected.  If more than one room is affected, we would recommend that you treat the entire house.

The areas treated will include:

  • Bed – slats, bed frame or ensemble
  • Mattress
  • Drawers
  • Power points
  • Behind pictures
  • Carpet and edges
  • Floor boards
  • Behind electrical equipment
  • Anywhere deemed necessary

How Does the Bed bug Treatment Work?

 

For the bedbugs to die they need to physically encounter the chemical.

Once they have come across the chemical it can take up to 10-12 hours for them to die.

This process aids in preventing other rooms being affected by bed bugs.

As bedbugs are nocturnal, it can take time for them to come across the chemical application.

Why are heat treatments for bedbugs not recommended?

 

For heat or steam to be effective against bedbugs the temperature needs to be between 65-75 degrees for a sustained period. Apart from the risk of fire, burns from the heat and steam areas such as cracks and crevices may not penetrate the heat, deeming the process inadequate.

Heat and steam can also damage furniture and has the potential of causing mould from the moisture left behind after steaming.

Do I need to Dispose my Furniture?

 

We are often asked about furniture and if a customer should throw their furniture away. We are pleased to inform you there is no need to throw away your furniture as it can be treated successfully.

Disposing bedbug infested furniture, you may create a risk of infestation for those around you.

How Should I prepare my house for bedbug control?

 

Apart from the clothing preparations previously mentioned

Internally
  • Clean up internally & externally
  • Wipe down counter-tops down
  • Wipe under appliances to remove food scraps
  • Wipe down any open jars of honey, syrups or sugars
  • Limit the clutter within the house
  • Limit paper goods and throw out cardboard boxes.

What to Expect After a Bedbug Pest Control Treatment

 

Bed bugs will decrease over the next 6 weeks.

You should notice a 50% reduction in the first week and this will continue to decrease over the next 6 weeks.

It is very normal to see and be bitten by bedbugs during this time, however if at the 6 week mark post treatment you are still seeing or being bitten by bedbugs then this is your indication that you will need the follow up treatment.

We have found that those who do conduct the preparations do get a better result than those who don’t.

Steps that you can take to Protect Your Home from bed bugs

 

  • Don’t take mattresses or padded furniture that has been left on the street
  • Inspect your bed sheets for blood spots, markings that look like rust or ink spots
  • Keep your suitcases covered in plastic and off the floor when you travel
  • When you travel, take a small flashlight to help you look for bed bugs.
  • When you return from a trip, wash all your clothes – even those that have not been worn – in hot water to ensure that any bed bugs that may have made it that far are not placed into your drawers/closet.

PNP Pest Control Recommends:

 

  • All deep cleaning including carpet cleaning should be completed before the pest control treatment
  • If you are moving into a new property it is best to have the pest control completed after the cleaning has been completed & before you move in.
  • Any painting should be completed before the pest control treatment
  • Repair any leaking plumbing or appliances as they will invite cockroaches to your property

How Long Is the Warranty?

 

PNP Pest Control does not offer warranty for bedbug treatments. Bedbug infestations do not occur naturally, they are physically introduced (carried in).

  • Follow the instructions as provided to you by our pest control technicians

How are ants treated?

 

Ants travel through unsanitary paths before they end up in your home, on your counter-tops, in your cupboards and near your food.

Ants externally cannot be eradicated with the traditional cockroach/spider sprays and ants typically will stay away from areas that have been treated with spider or cockroach sprays.

It is common that a company may tell you that ants are covered in their general spray, however what they are not informing you, ants will close off the entry points to their nests and will relocate them to another area.

PNP Pest Controls’ ant treatments do not just eradicate the surface ants, it is designed to eradicate the entire nest of ants and their queen.

What areas are treated?

 

Internal:

A low toxic ant bait will be placed in areas where ants and their trails are being seen. The ants will carry the bait back with them to the nest, passing it amongst themselves and the queen.

External:

A spray, Termidor,  is sprayed around the perimeter of your house

Ant Treatments in Sydney – How Does the Ant Treatment Work?

 

The ant bait and the Termidor spray work in the same manner where the ants carry the product back to the nest.

Ants cannot detect that the bait and spray are an insecticide they walk over the product, carry it back with them to the nest and pass the chemical amongst each other inside the nest.

This process eradicates the entire nest of ants, including the queen.

By using this process, the nest does not need to be located as the ants will do the work and carry the insecticide with them back to the nest.

Steps that you can take to Protect Your Home from ants

 

Internally:
  • Clean up spills and food crumbs quickly.
  • Empty rubbish bins often
  • Do not feed pets outside
  • Store food in pest-proof containers
  • Rinse out jars and containers before placing them in rubbish and recycling bins
Externally:
  • Keep trees and shrubs trimmed back from your house.
  • Keep gutters and storm drains free of debris
  • Watch for new ant mounds or nests around your home
  • Keep trash bags sealed and in closed rubbish bins
  • Seal doors and windows

 

Is Termidor Safe to Be Used Around Children & Pets?

 

Termidor has been assessed by the Australian Pesticide and Veterinary Medicine Authority and Commonwealth Department of Health and Ageing and is fully approved for use in domestic situations.

Termidor is water-based and virtually has no odour, will not leach through soil and is not damaging to soil micro-organisms, earthworms and plants. In addition, the active ingredient is used extensively on food crops around the world and as the leading product for flea and tick control on dogs and cats in Australia since 1996.

Termidor has also been safely used in over 4 million homes throughout the USA and Europe.

 

How Should I prepare my house for pest control?

 

Internally
  • Clean up internally & externally
  • Wipe down counter-tops down
  • Wipe under appliances to remove food scraps

  • Limit paper goods and throw out cardboard boxes.
Externally
  • Don’t hang the washing out
  • Mow the lawns
  • Limit garbage outside
  • Clean up the backyard area
  • Pack away any kids or pet toys.

 

What Should I Expect After an Ant Treatment?

 

  • It is common to see ants sitting near or around the ant bait.
  • Do not remove the ants
  • Do not disturb the ants

The reason for this is that we need the ants to carry the bait back with them to the nest and by interrupting them it interrupts the process of the ants carrying the bait back with them to the nest.

You may see ants up to 3 weeks after treatment.

If you are seeing ants that are scattered or dying this is your indication that the treatment is working.

WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER YOUR PEST CONTROL SERVICE

United in solving your pest issues

The most common questions asked to any pest control company after pest control treatment has been completed is:

After Pest Control

Most home owners want to be sure they know what to expect and what steps they should take once the treatment has been completed as they do not want to do anything that may compromise the treatment and they want to also make sure that their loved ones are safe.

Should cleaning be completed before or after pest control?

Ideally PNP Pest Control recommends any deep cleaning is completed before the pest control, including vacuuming and mopping the floors, which would reduce the risk of the pesticides being compromised.

Once the treatment has been completed we also recommend not frequently mopping if possible, if you do need to mop we ask that you refrain from mopping around the edges for at least the first few weeks.

Sweeping & vacuuming is fine (depending on the treatment you have had done and your consultant will advise if there are any changes to this.

Is the pest control safe for children and pets?

Our pest control services are safe to be used around children and pets.

However, some customers may prefer to keep children and pets out of the way while the treatment is being conducted.

Please note: There are some treatments where we require you to vacate the premises for a period of time, this will be discussed with you at the time of booking.

What should I expect after the pest control has been completed?

Certain pest control treatments such as the general spray include dusting the roof void, sub floor, weep holes and all cracks and crevices with a fine dust. It is common to see an increase in pest activity in the first week or two.

This is known as the knock down stage or flushing out period.

In the case of German cockroach treatments, areas such as the fridge, dishwasher, microwave, under cabinets and inside cupboards are treated, the pesticides used will flush the cockroaches out.

Every property is different and because of this what you may or may not see, will vary between property type & external environments.

What is pest control?

Definition: The regulation or management of a species defined as a pest, usually a member of the animal kingdom that impacts adversely on human activities.

A pest is an animal or plant that can affect humans, their food or their living conditions.

Pests include animals that:

  • carry diseases and parasites
  • Attack and eat vegetable and cereal crops
  • Damage stored food.
  • Attack and eat farm and station animals.
  • Damage clothing
  • Damage buildings
  • Bite people.

Pest Control Sydney – Control of pests is essential to ensure people, their stock and food supplies are not destroyed or contaminated, and the health of humans is not put at risk.

Pest control is the control of pests and the methods taken to help reduce the number of pests to a level where the risk to people, their food and the environment is minimised.

What is the importance of pest control?

Pest control is the process of managing and eliminating pests designed to decrease pest levels. PNP pest control uses chemicals that are safe to be used around children and pets that help control, prevent and eliminate pests in residential and commercial properties. We are knowledgeable in environmental safety and our pest control programs are designed to protect and prevent pest infestations in an efficient & timely manner.

One major reason why pest control is important is for health reasons. Pests can carry serious diseases, one that we all learnt about in school is the Bubonic plague which caused the death of millions of people worldwide was carried by rats and other rodents.

Cockroaches and other pests also carry germs in their bodies that can be transmitted to people. Asthma in children has been linked to cockroach droppings.

Pests can also impact production of food supplies which is another reason why pest control is vital in agriculture.

Pests not only carry diseases that can impact your health their destruction to building structure should also be a concern to all home and business owners.

The final reason why pest control is important is simply to “keep up appearances”, who likes the sight of pests like cockroaches or rats running through their home or offices?

Common Pests and their breeding & living areas

  • Flies: breed in rubbish, food scraps, open septic tanks, under eaves, dirty benches and tables, lawn clippings and animal droppings
  • Cockroaches: Breed in rubbish, food scraps, dirty benches, drains, behind stoves, microwaves fridges, inside cupboards especially in the kitchen and bathroom, under floors of older houses.
  • Mosquitoes: Breed in cool, dark and damp places such as still water collected in discarded refrigerators, car tyres and tins, water storage tanks and bodies of water.
  • Fleas: are normally found on cats and dogs and need blood to breed. They can bite humans when there are no animals around. Many fleas are brought into houses attached on clothing. Normally found on cats and dogs
  • Mites: Live and breed on animals and people.
  • Rats and Mice: Breed and live on rubbish, exposed food, storage places, kitchen cupboards and holes in walls. Also, can be found in pipes, insulation, under buildings, in ceilings, wall cavities and in gardens.
  • Bed bugs: transported from place to place in or on a person’s luggage. They hide in cracks and crevices during the day where people sleep and will seek a blood meal by biting a person in their bed during the night. Bed bugs need a blood meal to mature into adults. Bites can be very itchy and if scratched can become infected.
