Get instructions for the proposed service
Preparation varies with the pest, property and method. Ask for written instructions before emptying cupboards, moving furniture or laundering belongings. A generic checklist may not fit the work you have actually agreed to, especially when identification is still pending.
Arrange the access that is needed
Confirm entry instructions and who will be present. If work may involve a shared room, roof space or business storage area, identify the person who can authorize access. Explain any restrictions before the appointment rather than discovering them at the door.
Keep your observations easy to share
Bring together dates, affected locations and existing photographs. Include previous treatments or products and any instructions you followed. A short record is usually more helpful than a long theory about where the pest must have come from.
Clarify occupancy and the return plan
Ask how the proposed work affects people and pets, and when treated spaces can be used again if restrictions apply. Confirm how findings will be communicated and what to do about further sightings. Do not infer safety or re-entry times from another property’s appointment.
