Pest Control Service Prices in Pakistan (2025)

Keeping your home or business pest-free is about health, comfort, and protecting your property. But before you call a company, most people want to know one thing: how much will Pest Control cost? This guide gives clear, easy-to-understand price ranges for common pest control services across four major cities  Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, and Rawalpindi  and explains the factors that change the price. I’ll also share practical tips to get fair quotes, what to ask providers, and sample cost scenarios so you can budget with confidence.

Quick overview  what “pest control” usually covers

Pest control services can cover a wide range of needs. The most common jobs homeowners request are for cockroaches, ants, spiders, mosquitoes, rodents, bed bugs, and termites. Some jobs are small and quick (a single room spray). Others are bigger and need more time and chemicals (termite barrier, bed-bug fumigation, or warehouse pest management). Prices vary by the pest, the size of the area, the method used, and the city you live in.

City snapshot  headline price ranges (easy summary)

• Karachi: General home treatment (one visit) ≈ PKR 5,000 – 10,000. Termite and bed-bug jobs start higher (PKR 10,000+).
  

• Lahore: General home treatment ≈ PKR 3,000 – 10,000. Termite treatments often start around PKR 15,000 and can go up.

These are practical ranges you’ll see in 2025 markets. Exact numbers depend on the job details; always get an on-site inspection for a firm quote.

City details  what the market looks like locally

Karachi

Karachi is a big, busy market with many providers. Because there is strong competition, you will often find good promotional rates for common treatments. Single-visit house sprays for cockroaches and ants typically run around PKR 5,000–10,000. Mosquito fogging is common in coastal and humid months and usually charged per visit. For termites and bed bugs, expect higher prices because these jobs require more chemicals, equipment, and sometimes multiple visits.

Lahore

In Lahore, general pest jobs are slightly cheaper in many cases  PKR 3,000–10,000 is a normal band for a standard house. However, specialized services such as termite barrier treatments and bed-bug fumigation are priced similarly to other cities and can climb quickly depending on size and method. Many Lahore companies offer packaged quotes for houses (5 marla, 10 marla), which can make budgeting simpler.

Islamabad

Islamabad and nearby Rawalpindi often have straightforward pricing and a mix of national brands and local firms. General home treatments often fall between PKR 3,000–5,000 for standard apartments and houses. Because Islamabad has many newer developments, some providers include preventive options, monitoring, and warranties in their packages, which can slightly raise the price but improve value.

Rawalpindi

Rawalpindi pricing closely mirrors Islamabad. General treatments are typically PKR 3,000–5,000, while complex jobs  termites in timber-heavy structures or bed-bug infestations  can be as expensive as in the other big cities. Many local providers offer quick response across Saddar, Chaklala, and Bahria Town.

Why costs change  the main price drivers

The same company might quote a low price for one job and a much higher price for a different home. That’s normal. Here are the key things that make prices go up or down:

• Type of pest: Cockroaches and ants are easier and cheaper to treat than bed bugs or termites.
  

• Severity of infestation: A light presence can be handled quickly; heavy infestations need multiple treatments and special chemicals.
  

• Area size: Larger homes need more chemicals, more labor, and longer time.
  

• Treatment method: Simple sprays cost less; heat treatment, steam, fumigation, baiting systems, or barrier injections cost more.
  

• Number of visits: Some jobs need follow-ups; warranty-backed packages usually include these and are priced higher up front.
  

• Accessibility and safety: If technicians must move heavy furniture, work in high places, or treat high rises, price increases can apply.
  

• Chemical quality and brand: Premium or eco-friendly chemicals cost more than generic sprays.
  

• City labor and travel costs: Urban centers with higher operating costs sometimes charge more, but competition can offset that.
  

Sample cost scenarios (real examples you can compare to quotes)

These simple examples will help you judge whether a quote is reasonable.

1. Small 2-bed apartment  cockroach/ant treatment: one visit with standard spray, includes kitchen and two bedrooms  PKR 3,000 – 6,000.
   

2. 3-bed house  full home treatment (cockroaches + spiders + perimeter): two technicians, mainspray, and interior spot treatments  PKR 6,000 – 12,000.
   

3. 5-seater house  heavy rodent problem: baiting, traps, and follow-up visits (2 visits)  PKR 8,000 – 20,000.
   

4. 1 room with bed bugs (small apartment): steam + spot fumigation, one follow up  PKR 8,000 – 15,000.
   

5. 5 marla house  termite treatment (full barrier + injection): perimeter trenching, injections, and 1 follow-up  PKR 25,000 – 45,000.
   

6. Small shop / office (1,000 sq. ft.)  commercial contract: initial deep treatment plus monthly checks  PKR 10,000 – 25,000 setup, then monthly fees possible.
   
   

How to get a fair quote  a short checklist

• Ask for an on-site inspection. Phone estimates are only indicative.
  

• Request a written, itemized quote that lists chemicals, labor, follow-ups, and warranty.
  

• Ask which method they will use and why. Some pests need special methods (e.g., bed bugs often require steam or fumigation).
  

• Check whether cushions, wardrobes, or furniture treatment is included or priced extra.
  

• Confirm safety instructions (how long to ventilate, when it’s safe for kids/pets to return).
  

• Compare 2–3 providers and pick the one that offers clear warranty terms and a proper scope of work.
  

Save money without cutting corners  practical tips

• Schedule routine quarterly or bi-annual maintenance rather than paying for big emergency jobs. Regular small payments can prevent big infestations.
  

• Bundle services. Many companies give discounts if you treat the whole house rather than single rooms.
  

• Prepare the area: remove food, cover cookware, and vacuum before the team comes  it can reduce treatment time and cost.
  

• Ask about eco-friendly options if you have children or pets; they may cost a bit more but are less disruptive.
  

• Book off-peak or weekday slots if the provider offers lower weekday prices.

What to avoid  common red flags

• A very low quote that comes without an inspection.
  

• No written warranty or unclear follow-up terms.
  

• A company that refuses to name the chemical or provide basic safety advice.
  

• High pressure to sign immediately. A reputable firm will let you compare.
  

FAQs  quick answers to typical questions

Q: How long does a typical treatment last?
A: It depends. A single general spray may give 2–3 months’ control; a full termite barrier or baiting system can protect for 1–5 years depending on the chemical and environmental factors.

Q: Will pest control harm my kids or pets?
A: Professional companies use labeled products and follow safety rules. You should follow their re-entry time guidance and remove food items or cover them. Ask for the safety data sheet if you are concerned.

Q: Do companies offer guarantees?
A: Many reputable companies offer short warranties or free follow-ups if pests return within a stated time. Make sure this is in writing.

Q: Can I do pest control myself?
A: For tiny problems, consumer sprays and bait traps can help. For heavy or structural problems (termites, bed bugs, persistent rodents) professional treatment is safer and more effective.

Conclusion

Pest control is an investment in health and property. In 2025, home owners in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, and Rawalpindi can expect general house treatments to start from a few thousand rupees and rise depending on pest type and complexity. The best approach is to get a proper inspection, compare clear written quotes, and choose a provider that explains the method, offers safety guidance, and stands behind their work with a warranty.
