Flying Insect Pest Control in Ghatkopar

Find out what you have before you buy anything

A trap that works on flies does little for gnats coming out of a wet drain. So we start by naming what is flying around and tracing where it comes from. A shop front near R-City, a food counter on Vallabh Baug Lane and an LBS Marg unit with lights on all night can each have a different mix, and the visit to find out costs you nothing.

• Mosquitoes

  These need the breeding water dealt with. See mosquito control.

• Flies

  These need the rubbish or drain they breed in sorted first. See fly control in Ghatkopar.

• Moths and beetles

  They come to the lights, but they can also be breeding in stored food or cloth. We check your storage too.

• Wasps and hornets

  We take these off your property safely, then tell you how to keep them away. Honey bees are different: see bee hive removal.

• Gnats and midges

  Tiny ones that hang around wet soil, drains and still water. Those wet spots are what we treat.

• What is the cost of flying insect management in Ghatkopar?

  Prices begin at ₹2,200, and looking at the place first is free. What pushes the figure up is the number of insect types, the floor area, and any traps that need fitting. A stall with one counter pays far less than a large food place. We give the number in writing.

• My window is covered in insects after the rain. Should I worry?

  Usually it passes in a day or two. Rain sends flying ants, termites and others toward any light, so shut the window and turn the lamp down. Look at the sill the next morning, though. Dropped wings or thin mud lines on the wall mean you should have termites checked.

• Are UV traps any use in a food stall or small restaurant?

  They help with flies and similar insects, but only as one part of the job, since the place they breed still has to be cleared. Position matters too. Customers should not see one from the road, and it must never hang over food. We tell you where it should go.

• Can I keep an insect zapper indoors at home?

  You can, if it is placed sensibly: nowhere near food, and well above where a child can reach. For a kitchen or dining room, we prefer a trap that keeps the insect inside it, since a zapper can scatter bits around. See it on site with us before you buy one.

• There is a wasp nest near my window in Ghatkopar. Can you remove it?

  Yes, we take down wasp and hornet nests and tell you how to stop them coming back. Please leave it alone until then. A knocked nest or a blast of spray can bring the whole lot out at you. Keep the window shut, and send a photo showing how high it is.

• I have no idea what this insect is. Can I send a picture?

  Please do. WhatsApp it to 80979 41077, and mention where you found it and what time of day. Most of the time we can name it from that and tell you what to do next. If the photo is too blurry, we can come and look, and that costs nothing.

• What is the difference between this and your fly control service?

  Fly control is only for three flies: house, fruit and drain. This service is for a mix of insects, and it brings in moths, beetles and gnats, with traps and zappers as tools. It starts at ₹2,200. If flies are all you ever see, book fly control instead, and save the money.

• How can I reduce flying insects at home in the evening?

  Close up at dusk and keep outside lights low or switched off. Mesh on windows helps a lot. Throw out rotting food and tip out any still water. Try that for a week. If you still get a lot, we can come and tell you what they are and whether you need anything more.

• Small insects are flying around my kitchen grain. What should I check?

  Open your grain, flour and dry goods first, because the insects are very likely coming out of a packet. Throw out whatever is infested and wipe the shelf. Then look at the bin and drain. After that, a trap or spot treatment placed away from your cooking space can finish the job.

• Is there a warranty on flying insect work?

  Yes, 1-year, with 3 free follow-up visits a year, and it is written on your quote. If the numbers go back up, ring us. Often the reason is a fresh source nearby, or a trap that has been moved or not cleaned, and the technician looks at both of these.
