General pest control (Category P) covers common household pests including cockroaches, ants, spiders, silverfish, earwigs, crickets, centipedes, and occasional invaders. Some companies include mosquito and flea treatments in their general service, while others offer these as add-ons.

Effective flea elimination requires treating three areas simultaneously: pets (consult your veterinarian), the home interior (professional spray targeting carpet, furniture, and pet resting areas), and the yard (outdoor treatment of shaded areas). A single flea can lay 50 eggs per day, so complete treatment is essential to break the life cycle.
