At this year of my life, I know I should have been settling down with a nice man or preparing a wedding already. I usually do not think about these kinds of things because I am a certified workaholic woman. Even when you ask all my friends about what they think of me, I just know that the first word that will come out of their mouths would be ‘workaholic.’ So, you must be wondering how this is relevant to this article. Well, usually, workaholics live in the office. So, yes, I have a neglected apartment somewhere in the busy streets of Singapore. And, it is not a bad apartment either. It is homey and warm, but I have to work long nights. But, it all changed when we were all mandated to work from home until the pandemic subsides. At first, I was happy because I got to finally live in my apartment for more than 24 hours. Well, I was wrong. I got to live with termites, cockroaches, and mosquitoes instead. I had never gotten a chance to clean my house because I was so busy at work. It is frustrating! For the first week, I only slept for less than five hours. It was then I was planning to move to my friend’s extra place with twice the price of the rent until, thankfully, I discovered Rentokil’s pest control services in Singapore. It took them less than a week to eliminate all the pests in my apartment, so allow me to tell you how I have gotten to sleep soundly after their service!
When one of my friends stayed up all night to talk to me and help me determine the pests that live with me, I would have perpetually concluded that my apartment was haunted. It was the squeaky floorboards and random noises that I hear that have put these thoughts in my head. It is ridiculous when I think about it now. She helped identify the pests with some signs. Here are some of them:
Termites
• Excessively squeaky floorboards
• Stuck windows
• Loosened tiles
Cockroaches
• Dust of black droppings
• Unusual odour
Mosquitoes
• My small bite marks
• They linger in dim areas
I was determined to get termite control first since I do not want my property to get severely damaged. So, I called up Rentokil immediately after I discovered these signs!
Initial consultation
Rentokil offers a free quote upon your first call or communication with them. This is something that I liked because it saves me some time, considering I am occupied with work. The person I talked with was very accommodating. She appreciated that I reached to them with pest control services, and she answered all my questions. Soon enough, I got a schedule for an inspection!
The inspection
I never would have thought that I would get pest control for bed bugs until the people of Rentokil inspected my bed. Considering that they only cover one small part of my bed, I know I had to take them out too. Thanks to the attention that these people at Rentokil, I got to anticipate my peaceful sleeping!
Scheduling the services
They advised me to stay at a friend’s house when they do the treatments for my infested place. They assured me that the mosquito control they use for Singapore homes is organic and the smell does not stay. I was grateful for their management skills because they considered the urgency of my work as an IT professional. So, I think everyone would appreciate the fast service that they offer.
Proactive status updates
While I stayed at my friend’s house, they never missed a day to contact me about the process of their pest control treatment. They called me if they needed to move furniture, and what product I prefer for the bed bugs treatment. It was nice to be updated like that! It assured me that I got the best pest control services in Singapore!
My apartment, for some reason, looks brighter and cleaner than before. I think it comes from knowing that I no longer live with mosquitoes or other pests here. So, that night, I got the best sleep of my life! I cannot wait to ask my friend to come over and thank her with a nice dinner for letting me stay with her for some days. I am also excited to meet a partner who will live with me here!
If you are like me who is only realising that her apartment needs pest control services, then I highly recommend that you get Rentokil! Visit their website to get a free quotation today.
