Pest Control
For apartments and flats in Dhanmondi: trained cleaners, professional equipment and a clear price agreed before work starts.
If you are responsible for one of the many apartments and flats in Dhanmondi, you probably already know where dirt and wear build up fastest. Tell us, and Dhaka Cleaners will focus the pest control there first, then work through the rest of the agreed scope. Photos sent on WhatsApp help us estimate the time and team size before anyone visits.
Choosing Apartment when you request a quote tells us a lot, but the details still matter: the age of the building, the floor and wall finishes, how many people use the space and any recent work such as painting or repairs. Share what you can and Dhaka Cleaners will suggest a scope for pest control in Dhanmondi that is realistic for your property, your timing and your budget.
In apartment buildings, cockroaches travel between flats through drains, service shafts and gaps around pipes, so treating a single flat works best when those entry points are addressed too. We focus on the kitchen and bathrooms first, placing gel bait inside cabinet hinges, behind appliances and around sink pipes, and treating floor drains and pipe openings. Bed bug, ant and mosquito problems are handled room by room. Where several flats in the building are affected, a coordinated treatment arranged through the building committee gives longer-lasting results.
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.
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.
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.
Our teams work across Dhanmondi and neighbouring areas such as Mohammadpur, New Market, Kalabagan and Panthapath, so if you look after properties in more than one of them, we can plan the jobs together. Morning, afternoon and weekend slots are offered where available. Urgent and same-day requests are handled case by case and depend on team availability on the day.
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.
Common questions about pest control for apartments and flats 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.
For gel bait treatments you can usually stay at home. For sprays, people and pets should keep out of the treated rooms while the work is done and until surfaces are dry, which is usually a few hours. The technician will give you the exact re-entry time for the products used.
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.
Yes. Cockroaches and other pests move between flats through drains and service ducts, so a coordinated treatment across the building often gives longer-lasting results. We can plan it with the building committee or management, including shared areas such as stairwells, waste points and drains.
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.
