After treatment: what to do, what to watch for

Treatment doesn't end when the technician leaves. Still seeing insects is often normal — but not always. Our guides by pest tell you exactly what to expect, week by week.

Bed Bugs

Treatment doesn't end when the technician leaves. What you do over the next 3 weeks largely determines success.

Result: 2 to 6 weeks depending on the infestationRead

🪳

Cockroaches

Seeing more cockroaches in the days after treatment is a sign the gel is working. Here is how to read each stage.

Result: 3 to 6 weeks (2 to 3 treatments)Read

🐭

Rodents (Mice and Rats)

Treatment eliminates the rodents present; sealing the entry points is what stops the next ones from arriving. Here is what to do.

Result: 2 to 4 weeksRead

🐜

Carpenter Ants

The bait must travel to the main nest and satellite nests. Expect several weeks — and watch the sawdust, your best indicator.

Result: 3 to 8 weeksRead

🐾

Fleas

No product kills fleas inside their cocoon. It's your vacuum, run daily, that triggers hatching and finishes the job.

Result: 3 to 6 weeksRead

🐝

Wasps and Nests

Wasps still circling the nest after treatment is normal — those are foragers returning. Here is what to do.

Result: 24 to 48 hoursRead

🐜

Ants (Pavement and Field)

Seeing more ants for a few days is the best possible sign: they are carrying the bait back to the queen.

Result: 2 to 4 weeksRead
