Frequently Asked Questions

Will one treatment eliminate all insects?

No — most infestations need more than a single visit to bring fully under control. Treatment requirements depend on the pest involved, the level of infestation and the conditions within the property.

Do I need to prepare my property before treatment?

Preparation requirements, if any, will be explained before the service is carried out.

Is GIPC suitable for both homes and businesses?

Yes. The treatment plan is selected according to the property, pest activity and operational requirements.

Is the treatment safe for children and pets?

Yes, when the property is prepared and any advised precautions are followed. Any specific precautions or waiting periods will be explained before the service begins.

Will there be a smell, and how long does it last?

Most GIPC treatments leave little to no noticeable odour. Where a smell is expected, this will be explained beforehand, along with how long it typically takes to clear.

How long does the treatment take?

Duration depends on the size of the property and the extent of treatment required. This will be confirmed with you before the service begins.

Will we receive anything in writing after the service?

Yes. Every GIPC service is followed by a Service Report outlining our findings, the treatment carried out, and any recommendations.

How soon can the property be used again after treatment?

This varies by treatment method — some areas can be used almost immediately, others need a short waiting period. This will be confirmed for your property before we leave.
