All rates above are starting rates and may vary by infestation pattern, treatment method, and property condition.

What affects your final price

The starting rates above are useful for budgeting, but final pricing depends on what we find during inspection. The main factors that move a quote up or down are property size, infestation severity, treatment method, and whether you need a one-off visit or a recurring contract. Here is how each factor typically affects cost in Klang Valley properties.

Property size and layout

Apartment units, terrace houses, and bungalows have very different treatment scopes. A standard 900 sq ft apartment takes 30 to 60 minutes, while a 4,000 sq ft bungalow can take 2 to 3 hours per visit. Multi-storey properties add setup time and ladder access. Perimeter length matters for termite and rodent work.

Infestation severity

A first-time, light cockroach sighting needs gel placement in 3 to 5 spots. A recurring cockroach problem in the same unit may need 15 to 20 placements plus entry-point sealing. Severe termite infestation may need soil treatment plus a baiting program. We always quote based on what the inspection actually shows.

Treatment method

Different methods have different material and labour costs. Gel baiting is the most affordable cockroach treatment. Spraying is mid-range. ULV misting and thermal fogging are premium options. For termites, soil treatment and baiting are priced differently because of the equipment, termiticide, and follow-up visits involved.

One-off vs recurring

A one-off visit is priced at the standard rate. Annual contracts with quarterly, bi-monthly, or monthly visits are priced 20 to 30 percent lower per visit, and they include priority response, follow-up inspections, and treatment adjustments as conditions change through the year.

Detailed price breakdown by service

Below is a more detailed view of pricing by service category, including what each treatment typically includes. These are starting rates for the listed property type. Final pricing follows an inspection.

General pest treatment

General pest treatment covers ants, cockroaches, spiders, and other crawling insects common in Malaysian homes and businesses. Two plan options are available. Basic General Pest is a single spray-based treatment suitable for first-time or light issues. Smart General Pest adds gel bait placement, perimeter sealing, and a follow-up check at 2 to 4 weeks, which is the better choice for recurring issues.

Termite treatment

Termite treatment is priced per linear metre of perimeter and per square foot of building footprint. Pre-construction treatment at the soil preparation stage is significantly more affordable than post-construction drilling. Baiting systems run as a 3 to 6 month program with monthly monitoring. The starting rates below assume a standard residential scope. For full breakdown of termite options see the termite treatment options.

Annual Foundation InspectionAnyRM 250

Bed bug treatment

Bed bug treatment is priced per room and per infestation severity. Light cases in 1 to 2 rooms are at the lower end, while multi-room infestations with structural harbourage need the full structured program with multiple visits over 2 to 4 weeks. All bed bug pricing includes preparation guidance, the first treatment, and at least one follow-up visit. See the bed bug treatment page for the full process.

Rodent control

Rodent control pricing depends on whether the issue is at the ceiling void level, the ground level, or both. Our Smart Bait Eco Box program is suitable for most Malaysian properties and includes installation, monitoring, and replacement. Severe infestations with active structural entry may need additional exclusion work. The starting rates below cover a standard residential scope.

Terrace / Link HouseRM 450
Bungalow / Large LandedFrom RM 700
Restaurant / F&B OutletRM 600
Warehouse / FactoryFrom RM 1,200

Cockroach control

Cockroach pricing depends on the species (German cockroach is the most common in Malaysian homes and the most treatment-resistant) and the property type. German cockroach treatment typically needs gel bait placement across kitchen, bathroom, and pantry zones plus a follow-up visit. American cockroach and Oriental cockroach treatments are often combined with perimeter work.

Property Type Price (From)
Apartment / Condo (German cockroach focus)RM 250
Terrace / Link HouseRM 320
Restaurant / F&B Kitchen (per month contract)RM 600
Warehouse / FactoryFrom RM 800

Annual contract pricing

Most Klang Valley homes and small businesses benefit from a recurring contract rather than one-off visits. Quarterly service is the standard for residential properties. Bi-monthly or monthly service is recommended for restaurants, food-grade facilities, and properties near construction or forest edge. Annual contracts include priority response, follow-up inspections, and treatment adjustments through the year. Per-visit pricing on a contract is typically 20 to 30 percent lower than one-off rates.

Contract Property Type Per Year (From)
Quarterly General PestApartment / CondoRM 600
Quarterly General PestTerrace HouseRM 750
Bi-Monthly General PestRestaurant / CafeRM 2,400
Monthly Cockroach ContractF&B KitchenRM 6,000
Annual Termite Foundation InspectionAnyRM 1,000
Bi-Annual Rodent Bait ServiceWarehouseRM 2,400

All contract prices include 4 to 12 service visits per year, a written service report after each visit, and priority response for any pest issue between scheduled visits.

How to get a quoted price

The fastest way to get an exact price is to request a free site visit. We will confirm the pest type, scope of the issue, and property access details, then issue a written quotation with no obligation. Most residential quotations are issued within the same day of the visit. For commercial properties with multiple sites, a framework agreement with per-site pricing is available.

For a rough estimate without a visit, the starting rates in the tables above are reliable for budgeting. The final quote will be at or near the starting rate for typical first-time issues and may be higher for severe or recurring infestations that need additional treatment scope. We always issue a written quote before starting any work, and we will not proceed if the final inspection price exceeds the rough estimate you received.

What's included in every visit

  • Pre-treatment inspection of the affected zones with written issue notes
  • Treatment application matched to the pest type, infestation level, and property conditions
  • Written treatment record documenting the products used, dosage, and coverage
  • Re-entry and safety guidance for occupants, children, and pets
  • Prevention recommendations specific to your property
  • Follow-up window of 2 to 4 weeks for any activity that returns

For contract customers, the visit also includes a written service report with photos, an updated pest risk rating, and any treatment adjustments based on what we see that visit.
