Question 1

How much does pest control cost in Montreal?

Accepted Answer

The cost depends on the pest, the severity of the infestation, the property size and the treatment required. That's why we offer a free on-site inspection and quote, with no obligation. Call (514) 835-2108 for an assessment.

Question 2

Are the inspection and quote really free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We come out, assess the situation and give you a clear price — for free and with no obligation whatsoever. You then decide with full information.

Question 3

Do you offer a guarantee on your treatments?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All our treatments come with a written guarantee, typically 60 to 90 days or more depending on the pest and treatment performed. If the problem returns during the covered period, we come back at no charge.

Question 4

Do you respond to emergencies, and how fast?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we offer 24/7 emergency service. For urgent situations (bed bugs, rats, wasps), we respond as quickly as possible, often the same day or within 24 hours.

Question 5

Are your products safe for children and pets?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We exclusively use Health Canada approved products, applied by CD5-certified technicians. The method (with or without poison) is adapted to your situation to protect your family and pets.

Question 6

Which areas do you serve?

Accepted Answer

We serve all of Greater Montreal and surroundings: the island of Montreal, Laval, the South Shore (Longueuil, Brossard, Châteauguay), the North Shore (Terrebonne, Blainville, Repentigny) and the West Island. Our mobile team comes to you.

Question 7

Do I need to prepare my home before treatment?

Accepted Answer

Depending on the pest, proper preparation increases treatment effectiveness (especially for bed bugs and cockroaches). We provide clear instructions, and you can consult our detailed preparation sheets on the site.

Question 8

Is your vehicle marked?

Accepted Answer

No. We use unmarked vehicles for your complete discretion. No neighbor will know the reason for our visit.

Question 9

How long does it take to get rid of bed bugs?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the infestation size. The biological barrier we apply stays active for several weeks, so it also reaches the young that hatch after the visit. Most cases are resolved within a few weeks, with a written guarantee.

Question 10

How do I get rid of mice for good?

Accepted Answer

Catching a few mice isn't enough: you must seal the entry points. Our intervention combines inspection (with a smoke test if needed), professional sealing (exclusion), traps or bait, and a guarantee — that's what truly prevents their return.

Question 11

Do you treat cockroaches in apartment buildings?

Accepted Answer

Yes. In a building, cockroaches migrate between units through the plumbing. We use professional gel baits and often coordinate treatment between neighboring units for a lasting result.

Question 12

Can I treat it myself with store-bought products?

Accepted Answer

Over-the-counter products only kill visible insects, rarely the eggs or hidden nests, and pests develop resistance to them. Professional treatment targets the source (colony, nest, hiding spots) with products and equipment not available to the public.

Question 13

Do you offer commercial pest control (restaurants, buildings, offices)?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We offer commercial services with maintenance contracts, discreet interventions and documentation for MAPAQ compliance (restaurants, food processing). We serve restaurants, buildings, offices, hotels and warehouses.

Question 14

What payment methods do you accept?

Accepted Answer

We accept cash, debit and major credit cards. A detailed invoice is provided for every intervention.

Question 15

When should I call an exterminator?

Accepted Answer

At the first signs: droppings, noises in the walls, insects seen during the day, bites, damage or a visible nest. The sooner you act, the simpler, faster and cheaper the treatment — infestations escalate quickly.

Question 16

Are you certified and insured?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our technicians hold the CD5 certificate required in Quebec, we are insured and use only Health Canada approved products. NEQ 3382035833.

Question 17

Do you capture wildlife (raccoons, squirrels, skunks)?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We carry out ethical capture and exclusion of urban wildlife (raccoons, squirrels, skunks, groundhogs), in compliance with Quebec regulations, then seal the access points and clean up if needed.

Question 18

What's the best time of year to treat?

Accepted Answer

It varies by pest: mice and rats seek shelter in fall, wasps peak in summer, carpenter ants become active in spring. Bed bugs and cockroaches are treated year-round. When in doubt, call us.
