Pest control in Ķengarags

How Kengarags blocks change the treatment

What matters in pest control is not only the species but the building it is in. Below are the conditions that genuinely change the plan in Ķengarags.

• Standard multi-storey blocks. Uniform Soviet-era construction with shared services. Cockroaches and bedbugs move vertically along the riser, so treating one flat without a barrier at the crossing points gives only a short-lived result.
• Fragments of pre-war building. In the older buildings there are more hiding places and access is more awkward than in a standard block.
• Shops and public premises. Shops and food outlets inside the estate mean a constant risk of insects arriving with deliveries.
• Close to the Daugava. In the lower-lying parts and in basements the damp level is noticeably higher.

What we deal with most often in Kengarags

The uniform block housing along the river means these are the pests we deal with most in Kengarags:

• Cockroaches — The most common pest in estates of this kind; spreads through the ventilation shafts.
• Bedbugs — Move vertically along the riser, often after a neighbour has been treated.
• Gnats — In the biofilm inside drain traps and in bin rooms.
• Silverfish — In damp basements and bathrooms.

We treat all 18 pests regardless of location — the full list is in the pests section. If you do not know the species, that is not a problem: choose the relevant option in the form and describe what you see.
