Pest Identification Guide
Know Your Pest Before You Call Anyone.
Most Singapore homeowners misidentify what they've found — and misidentification leads to the wrong treatment. These tables are the same reference our technicians use in the field.
01 // Wood & Paper Pests
Subterranean Termite vs. Booklice
| Attribute | Subterranean Termite | Booklice (Psocids) |
|---|---|---|
| Risk Level | Critical | Low |
| Structural Damage | Yes — hollows out timber, door frames, roof beams. Average repair cost: S$8,000–S$40,000 | No structural damage. Feeds on paper, books, and starchy materials only. |
| Visible Signs | Mud tubes on walls, hollow-sounding wood, discarded wings near windows | White elongated insects in clusters, silverfish-like but smaller, found in damp areas |
| Treatment Method | Baiting system + soil treatment + borate wood treatment | Dehumidification + residual insecticide spray + source removal |
| Re-inspection | Every 3 months for 12 months post-treatment | Single follow-up at 4 weeks |
| Pricing Tier | From S$380 (HDB) · S$680+ (landed) | From S$120 flat rate |
| Urgency | Act within 48 hours | Schedule within 2 weeks |
02 // Cockroach Species
German Cockroach vs. American Cockroach
| Attribute | German Cockroach | American Cockroach |
|---|---|---|
| Risk Level | High | Medium |
| NEA / SFA Risk | Primary cause of F&B outlet closures. Carries Salmonella, E. coli, and triggers NEA demerit points | Outdoor species — less likely in food prep areas, but can enter via drains and sewers |
| Where Found | Behind gas pipes, inside motor housings of fridges, under dishwasher seals, inside wall voids | Drains, bin centres, sewers, outdoor landscaping, ground-floor void decks |
| Reproduction Rate | 1 female → 30,000 offspring/year. Colony doubles every 3 weeks in tropical conditions | Slower — 12 eggs per capsule, fewer generations per year |
| Treatment Method | Gel bait stations + IGR spray + crack & crevice injection | Drain treatment + residual barrier spray + exclusion sealing |
| Re-inspection | Monthly for F&B · Quarterly for residential | Single follow-up at 6 weeks |

03 // Treatment Reference
Every Treatment.
Every Compound. Transparent.
We publish our treatment protocols openly. The right chemical at the right concentration, applied by a licensed technician — that's the difference between a treatment and a solution.
All treatments comply with NEA Singapore pesticide regulations. Compounds listed are active ingredients — formulations and concentrations are determined on-site by our licensed technicians based on infestation severity and property type.
