What pest control costs in Nellore: the rate card explained

Pest control pricing confuses people because the same phrase — "pest control" — covers a one-hour gel job in a kitchen and a full day of drilling and injecting around a building's foundation. Here is our rate card for Nellore, what each line actually buys, and how to compare any quote you get, from us or anyone else.

The rate card

Treatment	Price	What it covers
Cockroach treatment	₹799	Gel bait + spray, 30-day warranty
Mosquito control	₹999	ULV spray + larvicide
Rodent control	₹1,199	Traps + bait + sealing gaps
Termite treatment	₹2,499	Pre- or post-construction treatment
Full home pest	₹2,999	All insects + rodents, 30-day warranty

What sits behind each price

Cockroach, ₹799. The bulk of the work is gel bait placed deep in cabinet hinges, under-sink corners and appliance backs, plus a residual spray along skirtings and drain lines. The 30-day warranty means a free re-visit if live cockroaches persist — which is also your quality check on the job.

Mosquito, ₹999. Two components: the ULV misting that reaches resting adults under furniture and behind curtains, and larvicide dosed into standing water you cannot drain — sump, tanks, drains. If a quote is much cheaper, it is usually fog-only, which buys you about a week.

Rodent, ₹1,199. Traps indoors, locked bait stations outdoors, and — the part that actually ends the problem — sealing the pipe gaps, drain openings and door gaps the rats use. A quote without sealing is a subscription, not a solution.

Termite, ₹2,499. Drilling and injecting the wall-floor junction around the home, direct treatment of affected frames, sealed holes. For a building under construction, soil treatment before the floor slab. Scope is confirmed on site; a large independent house or one with outbuildings can run beyond the standard coverage, and you will be told before work starts.

Full home, ₹2,999. Everything insect plus rodent in one visit, with a 30-day warranty. If you have two or more separate problems, this costs less than booking them apart, and it is one visit and one warranty date to keep track of rather than three.

What legitimately changes a quote

• Size. A 1BHK and a three-floor independent house are not the same job.
• Severity. A kitchen with a colony behind every hinge needs more material and a second visit sooner.
• Access. False ceilings, built-in woodwork and packed storerooms add time.
• Repeat visits. Bed bug work needs a scheduled second visit; that belongs in the price up front, not as a surprise.

What should never change the quote after the fact: the chemical "running out", a warranty that appears only if you pay more, or a price revealed after the work is done. The quote comes before the work, always.

Comparing quotes honestly

Ask every provider the same four things and write the answers down: exactly what is included (gel and spray, or spray only? larvicide, or fog only? sealing, or traps only?), which chemical is used, the warranty period and what triggers a free re-visit, and whether a follow-up visit is included. Two quotes ₹300 apart usually differ in one of those four lines, not in generosity.

Where the money is saved

Not on the treatment — on the interval between treatments. Sealed drain collars, a dry kitchen at night, fixed leaks, food in hard containers and the monsoon water audit stretch a ₹799 cockroach job from three months of relief to six, and can make the mosquito visit unnecessary in a dry month. The cheapest pest control is the infestation that never establishes.

When paying more is the right call

Active termites, bed bugs, rats with small children in the house, or anything that needs a sealed-space treatment: these are the jobs where cutting cost cuts safety or means doing it twice. For everything else, the rate card above is the whole story — no visit charge games, and the price told to you before anyone opens a bottle.
