Why pests thrive in Kolkata
Kolkata's heat, humidity and monsoon are perfect breeding conditions. Termite cases surge after the monsoon, cockroaches flourish in warm kitchens and drains, and standing water breeds mosquitoes that spread dengue and malaria. Beyond the nuisance, pests are a real risk — cockroaches and rodents contaminate food and trigger asthma, rats carry diseases like leptospirosis, and termites silently destroy furniture and structure. Acting early is cheaper and safer than waiting.
Which pest are you dealing with?
Each pest needs a different treatment — here's how we tackle the common ones:
- Cockroaches — kitchens, bathrooms, drains
- Bed bugs — mattresses, beds, furniture
- Termites — wooden furniture, doors, structure
- Rodents — rats and mice
- Mosquitoes — balconies, gardens, standing water
- Ants, lizards & general insects
How do I book pest control in Kolkata?

Open the Zaruri Hai app, tap Pest Control, choose the pest (or general treatment), and pick a slot. A verified technician inspects, treats the source, and shares the price before starting. Booking takes under two minutes.
Cockroach control

Signs: droppings, egg cases or roaches in the kitchen, bathroom and drains. Treatment: odourless gel baiting at hidden spots plus targeted residual spray — baiting reaches the nest so the colony collapses, not just the ones you see. Quick, effective, and safe to stay home. From ₹699 for a 1 BHK.
Bed bug control
Signs: red bite marks in a line, blood spots on bedsheets, tiny bugs in mattress seams and bed joints. Treatment: thorough chemical spray of mattresses, beds, furniture and cracks. Bed bugs are stubborn — eggs survive one round — so it usually needs two rounds, about two weeks apart, to break the cycle. From ₹1,900 for a 1 BHK.
Termite control

Signs: mud tubes on walls, hollow-sounding or crumbling wood, discarded wings. Treatment: drilling and injecting anti-termite chemical into walls, floor joints and wood to kill the colony and create a barrier. Available as pre-construction (soil treatment) and post-construction, with a multi-year warranty. Protects your furniture and structure. From ₹2,000+, by area.
Rodent (rat & mice) control
Signs: gnaw marks, droppings, scratching sounds, chewed wires or packets. Treatment: a mix of traps, bait stations and entry-point sealing to remove rodents and keep them out. Important for safety — rodents contaminate food and spread disease. Priced by severity and property size.
Mosquito control
Signs: mosquito activity around balconies, gardens, drains and stagnant water. Treatment: fogging and larvicide treatment of breeding spots and outdoor areas to cut numbers and reduce the risk of dengue, malaria and chikungunya. Best done before and through the monsoon.
Ant, lizard & general pest control
General (integrated) pest control targets common household insects — ants, cockroaches, spiders, silverfish and lizards — with safe sprays and gels, sealing entry points and treating the colony. The affordable, all-round option to keep everyday pests out. From ₹699.
General or targeted treatment?
Pick what fits:
- General pest control — covers everyday insects (ants, cockroaches, spiders, silverfish); ideal for regular protection and prevention.
- Targeted treatment — a dedicated approach for a specific problem like termites, bed bugs or rodents, which need their own chemicals and methods.
Not sure? The technician inspects and recommends the right one.
Herbal or chemical — is it safe for kids and pets?
Both options are available. We use government-approved chemicals applied safely, and herbal/eco-friendly, low-odour treatments where you prefer — a good choice for homes with children, pets, elderly members or allergies. The technician advises the safest effective option for your home.
Do I need to leave home during treatment?
Usually not. General, gel and spot treatments let you stay home. Some heavy chemical sprays or fogging need you to vacate for a few hours and keep food covered — the technician tells you clearly beforehand, so there are no surprises.
How many treatments will I need?
It depends on the pest:
- General / cockroach / ant — usually one treatment, with quarterly upkeep.
- Bed bugs — typically two rounds about two weeks apart.
- Termites — one detailed treatment with a warranty and periodic checks.
- Rodents — may need a few visits depending on severity.
How soon will the pests be gone?
It varies by pest. Cockroaches and ants drop off within a few days as the bait works through the colony. Bed bugs clear after the second round. Termites die out over a few weeks as the colony collapses. The technician tells you what to expect for your treatment.
How often should you do pest control?
For lasting protection, a preventive treatment every 3 months (quarterly) keeps common pests away. Heavy infestations and food businesses need more frequent service. One-time treatment solves the immediate problem; regular service prevents the next.
Pest control AMC (annual plans)
An Annual Maintenance Contract bundles scheduled quarterly treatments into one fixed yearly cost — cheaper than booking each visit, with priority service and continuous protection. Ideal for homes that want zero hassle and for offices, restaurants and shops that must stay pest-free.
How to keep pests away after treatment
Simple habits protect your home between treatments:
- store food in airtight containers and keep counters clean
- seal gaps, holes and drains where pests enter
- fix leaks and don't let water stand — mosquitoes breed in it
- fit mesh screens on windows and ventilators
- clear clutter and keep wood and cardboard off damp floors
Good habits make each treatment last longer.
Why acting early saves money
The longer you wait, the worse it gets. A small cockroach or ant problem is quick and cheap to treat; a heavy infestation needs more visits and costs more. Termites left alone silently eat through furniture and structure, turning a small treatment into thousands in repairs. Spot the signs and book early.
