Pest Control
For apartments, restaurants, independent houses and offices in Dhanmondi: trained cleaners, professional equipment and a clear price agreed before work starts.
With 15+ years of experience, Dhaka Cleaners knows that pest control in a place like Dhanmondi is rarely one-size-fits-all. Layouts, surfaces, building rules and daily routines differ from one property to the next, so we ask a few practical questions first, suggest what will genuinely help and confirm the price before we begin. You deal with one trained, supervised team and one clear point of contact throughout.
Dhanmondi is one of Dhaka's longest-established residential areas, laid out along numbered roads around Dhanmondi Lake. Apartment buildings now stand beside older family houses, while schools, coaching centres, clinics and restaurants fill the busier roads. Dhaka Cleaners cleans flats, houses, offices, clinics and restaurant kitchens across the area, from the quiet lakeside roads to the busy stretch along Satmasjid Road, planning each visit around building rules, parking and school-run traffic.
Dhanmondi is a mixed residential and commercial area, so a single road can hold family flats, offices, shops and places to eat. Common property types here include apartments, restaurants, independent houses and offices. That variety changes what pest control involves from one address to the next: homes usually want daytime visits with the family present, while businesses often need early-morning or after-hours work. Tell us which applies to you and we will plan the team and timing to suit.
Mostly mid-rise apartment buildings, with some remaining independent houses and a large number of schools, coaching centres, clinics and restaurants on the main roads. Many buildings combine residential floors with commercial ground floors.
Monsoon damp and mould in bathrooms and wardrobes, traffic dust on balconies, grilles and window tracks, and greasy kitchens are the most common issues in homes. Restaurants and food outlets need regular hood, exhaust fan and pest control work, while clinics and coaching centres need dependable routine cleaning. Move-in and move-out deep cleans are frequent because so many flats change hands.
The steps below are adjusted to your property and its condition, but the order rarely changes: understand the job, agree the scope, do the work, then review it together.
Tell us which pests you see, where and how often; photos of insects or droppings help us identify them.
The technician checks kitchens, bathrooms, drains, furniture and entry points to find hiding places and the source.
You receive clear instructions on what to cover, empty or move, and how long people and pets should stay away.
Gel bait, crevice sprays, bait stations or space treatment are applied according to the pest and the area.
We explain what to expect over the following days, which areas not to mop and how to prevent reinfestation.
For pests such as bed bugs a planned second visit is often needed; otherwise we review progress if activity continues.
Baits are placed out of reach and sprays are limited to where they are needed, with clear re-entry advice.
Gel bait and crevice treatments mean many homes need little preparation and no long absence.
We point out the entry points, moisture and hygiene issues that keep bringing pests back.
Restaurants, offices and clinics can be treated after hours, with a dated visit record on request.
Equipment: Depending on the pest, we use applicator guns for gel bait, hand-held and pressurised sprayers for crack-and-crevice treatment, tamper-resistant bait stations and traps, and fogging or misting equipment for mosquito space treatment.
Starting from ৳ 2,500 per treatment (minimum)
As a guide, pest control starts from ৳ 2,500 per treatment (minimum); larger, heavily soiled or hard-to-reach jobs cost more. Send a few photos and we will confirm the price for your property in Dhanmondi.
Pest Control in Dhanmondi and nearby Mohammadpur, New Market, Kalabagan and Panthapath is scheduled with a little preparation time, so you can store water, clear cupboards or plan around the work as needed. For urgent problems, such as a sudden infestation or discoloured water, call or WhatsApp us; same-day visits are possible only subject to team availability.
We cover all of Dhanmondi. Same-day visits may be possible when booked early, subject to team availability; weekend slots for schools and offices fill quickly.
Most apartment buildings have a guard desk and a lift, and some ask for advance notice or the building manager's permission before a team brings in machines. Parking on the narrower numbered roads can be tight, and weekday traffic around schools affects arrival times.
Common questions about pest control in Dhanmondi.
Yes. Many buildings in Dhanmondi limit work to daytime hours or ask for notice at the guard desk. Tell us the rules when you book and we will schedule the visit to fit, registering the team with the guard or manager on arrival if required.
We do. Kitchen, hood and exhaust fan degreasing and pest control for restaurants are usually scheduled before opening or after closing so that service is not disrupted. A short site visit or a few photos help us quote accurately.
We use products intended for indoor pest control, apply them according to label directions and place baits out of reach. Keep children and pets away from treated areas until they are dry, cover aquariums and move pet birds to another room. Please tell us about infants, pregnancy or anyone with asthma so we can adjust the method.
This is common in the first few days, because the treatment flushes cockroaches out of their hiding places. Avoid spraying your own insecticide over gel bait, as it can stop cockroaches from eating the bait. Activity should reduce over the following weeks.
Mosquito treatment is available and works best when combined with removing breeding sites, such as water in flower-pot trays, AC drip trays, rooftop containers and blocked drains. The technician will point out likely breeding spots around your property and explain how to keep them dry, especially during the monsoon.
Many treatments can be scheduled within a few days, and urgent problems are prioritised where possible, subject to team availability. Tell us which pests you are seeing and send photos if you can, so the technician arrives prepared.
