How to Tell If Your Property Is Infested
Certain signs indicate it is time to act before the problem gets worse.
- Spiders: frequent webs around windows and doors, regular spider sightings especially at dusk, nests or cocoons in hard-to-reach corners of walls, railings, or under balconies.
- Ants: active ant trails on the ground or along walls, dirt mounds or visible nests in the lawn, sawdust or clusters of wings on the ground in paved or sandy areas, or near foundations.
- Earwigs: insects that scatter quickly when exposed to light, nocturnal activity around patios or low walls, recurring presence near cracks or low structures, particularly under flower pots, stones, mulch, or edging.

Complete Maintenance
Complete Your Protection with These Services

June beetle larvae destroy grass roots beneath the surface. A white grub treatment combined with your outdoor insect protection provides complete coverage of your property, both above and below ground.

The cCurité package combines complete lawn treatment and outdoor insect protection in a single agreement. The most comprehensive solution for a healthy, clean, and protected outdoor space all season long.
Learn moreLawn Aeration
An aerated, dense lawn is naturally more resistant to insect infestations. Aeration strengthens the roots and improves overall lawn health, complementing your insect control treatment.
Learn moreSoil Amendment
Balanced soil promotes a dense lawn that better resists harmful insects. Lime spreading corrects acidity and creates growing conditions unfavourable to certain pests.
Learn moreLawn Repair
Whether your lawn has been damaged by insects or burrowing animals, or simply lacks density, mechanical overseeding quickly restores affected or thinning areas, complementing your insect control treatment as needed.

It is normal to still see a few insects in the first days: the product works gradually and insects must come into contact with the treated surface. Maximum effectiveness is generally reached after a few days. If the situation persists after 14 days, place a service call. A free re-treatment will be scheduled promptly as part of the guaranteed treatment.
Our technicians apply the treatment at the base of walls and in common hiding spots (cracks, flower beds, flower pots, under slabs).
