How to Prepare for Pest Control

Preparing Your Home for Caterpillar Control Treatment

  • Identify Affected Areas: Locate areas in your garden or home where caterpillars are active. Look for damaged plants, leaves with holes, and clusters of eggs.

  • Remove Infested Plants: Prune and dispose of heavily infested plants or plant parts to reduce the caterpillar population. Use sealed bags to prevent spread.

  • Clean the Area: Clear away garden debris, fallen leaves, and plant material that can harbor caterpillars and their eggs.

  • Protect Food Sources: Ensure that any food items, particularly fresh produce from the garden, are covered or brought indoors to avoid contamination.

  • Minimise Light Attraction: Turn off outdoor lights at night to reduce attracting moths, which lay eggs that turn into caterpillars.

  • Water Plants in the Morning: Watering plants in the morning allows them to dry by evening, making them less attractive to caterpillars.

  • Access for Technicians: Ensure technicians have easy access to all affected areas, including gardens, greenhouses, and any indoor spaces where caterpillars have been found.
