Frequently Asked Questions
All You Need to Know About Pest Control.
Why do we need pest control?
Pests in commercial areas pose serious health risks by contaminating food and surfaces, spreading diseases like food poisoning, dengue, and malaria. They can damage property and equipment, and their presence harms hygiene standards, negatively affecting customer trust and business reputation.
Is it harmful to health?
DPCS takes great care in offering customised solutions using Pesticides that are approved by international agencies and do not affect humans.
Can we start cooking immediately after the service?
Since DPCS uses only Pesticides approved for Public health use and which are non-toxic, there is no problem in cooking even while the pest control is being done. However it would be advisable to keep foodstuff covered as a matter of abundant precaution.
What is AMC?
AMC stands for annual maintenance contract. AMC customer signs a contract for a specified period usually one year or two years. During this period DPCS technicians will visit as per the schedule mentioned in the contract and carry out the service for the pests covered under the contract. The frequency of service varies with the type of pest as well as the nature of the establishment (residential, corporate or commercial)
What is the advantage if we sign contract?
If the customer signs for AMC, there are many advantages.
a) Regular service ensures pest free environment thus eliminating health risks
b) There is no need to keep track of due dates since Spahi person will call you to fix up the schedule on the due dates
c) During the AMC period Spahi offers warranty which means that in the unlikely case of re-appearance of pest, additional service will be given free of cost
Why we need to have service periodically?
Each pest has its own breeding cycle and the frequency of the service has to be adjusted accordingly. Secondly pests like bugs, cockroaches etc. come into the premises through cartons, bags and other items brought from outside. Periodic pest control ensures such pests are removed. Also Pesticides used in pest control have effect for a certain period after which fresh application is necessary to prevent fresh infestation by pests.
How often we need to do pest control?
The frequency of service will depend on the type of pest. For example mosquito control for external areas may have to be done once or twice a week whereas rat control may be once in a fortnight. Also premises like restaurants require service more often as compared to office or residence.

Will the spray stain the walls?
Normally the spraying will not stain the walls. However in some cases where some special paints have been used on the walls, it is possible that some marks may be seen. To avoid such situations, the technician will always test in some small area and only if it is not staining he will proceed with the treatment.
