Pests after repair

Why do they appear and what to do?

You've done some home renovations - new floors, painted walls, and installed furniture. But soon you start hearing creaking in the walls , seeing insect tracks , and something moving in the kitchen.
Pests increase more often than expected after renovations.


Why does this happen?

  • Former nests are disturbed - when walls are demolished and floors are rearranged, pests are awakened.

  • Construction waste – garbage left untidy becomes a food source.

  • New cracks and ventilation - new ways to enter the premises appear.

  • Rooms that have not been inhabited for a long time – warmth, humidity, silence – are ideal for insects or rodents.


The most common pests after renovation:

  • Cockroaches – hide in furniture structures and wall joints.

  • Rodents – move from one area to another when scared.

  • Fleas and ticks can be brought in through old furniture or textiles.

  • Flies and mold – if moisture or waste has not been properly removed.


What to do?

  1. Call in specialists for an inspection - especially if the repair was major.

  2. Remove waste, seal cracks , crevices, joints.

  3. Perform preventive disinsection and disinfection to prevent the spread of infection.

  4. Be careful with furniture and materials that came from other places.
