  • How long does a pest control treatment take?

    The time required for a pest control treatment can vary depending on the type of pest being treated and the size and complexity of your property. On average, most treatments can be completed within 30 minutes to 2 hours. However, larger infestations or whole-home services may take longer. After our initial inspection, we’ll inform you exactly how long for pest control is needed in your specific case, ensuring you always know what to expect regarding pest control treatment time.

  • Do I need to leave my home during the pest control treatment?

    In most standard pest control preparation situations, remaining at home is perfectly safe, as our products and procedures are designed to be low-impact. However, for certain treatments—such as bed bug eradication or when particularly sensitive individuals, children, or pets are present—we may recommend vacating your home for a few hours. We will provide clear, thorough instructions on what to do before the exterminator arrives and whether you, your family, or your pets need to leave during application for maximum safety.

  • How can I prevent pests from returning?

    Preventing pests from returning involves a combination of proactive measures and ongoing vigilance. We recommend cleaning regularly, removing food and water sources, sealing up entry points, and managing waste properly as effective pest prevention tips. Additionally, scheduling periodic inspections and pest-proofing services with our team can provide ongoing protection and professional advice on how to keep pests away for good.

  • What are the signs of a bed bug infestation?

    Common bed bug signs include itchy bite marks on exposed skin, small blood stains or dark spots (their feces) on bedding and mattresses, and shed exoskeletons or eggshells around mattress seams and furniture crevices. You may also detect a sweet, musty odor. If you’re wondering how to know if you have bed bugs, we highly recommend scheduling a professional bed bug inspection to accurately identify the problem and start effective treatment promptly.

  • How do you get rid of rodents?

    Rodent control in Langley involves a multi-step process including inspection, exclusion, trapping, and ongoing monitoring. As experienced mice exterminators and rat removal specialists, we locate entry points, deploy professional-grade traps and bait stations, and advise you on preventing future infestations. Rodent control isn’t just about removal—it’s about creating a rodent-proof environment that keeps your home or business safe long-term.

  • What is Integrated Pest Management (IPM)?

    Integrated Pest Management, or IPM, is a modern approach to pest control that emphasizes minimizing pesticide use and reducing environmental impact. Our IPM pest control program integrates techniques like monitoring, education, prevention, habitat modification, and targeted treatments for long-lasting results. This holistic strategy is highly effective, sustainable, and safe for your family and environment.

  • How can I tell the difference between ants and termites?

    Distinguishing ants vs termites can sometimes be tricky, but there are key features: Ants have a narrow, pinched waist and elbowed antennae, while termites display a thicker waist and straight, beaded antennae. Additionally, termite wings are of equal length, whereas ant wings are uneven. For accurate termite identification and peace of mind, we recommend scheduling a professional inspection.

  • Why should I hire a professional pest control company instead of doing it myself?

    While DIY pest control methods are available, they often provide only temporary results and can sometimes worsen problems if not done correctly. Professional exterminators bring expertise, access to advanced tools, and a thorough understanding of pest behavior. Choosing an expert ensures your issue is handled safely, effectively, and with lasting results—especially when you’re unsure when to call an exterminator or dealing with stubborn infestations. Save time, stress, and money by choosing Armoured Pest Control for your peace of mind.
