Pest Control in Dubai
FixPro provides pest control in Dubai for homes, villas, apartments and offices: cockroaches, ants, bed bugs, fleas and ticks, bees and wasps, and rats and mice. Our technician identifies the pest and where it is getting in, treats the problem, and tells you how to stop it coming back. You get a clear price before any treatment starts.
Send us a photo of the pest or the problem area on WhatsApp at 058 586 1144 or call 04 832 1555. Tell us the pest, the property type and the number of bedrooms, and we will give you a quote.
Which Pest Do You Have? Quick Self-Check
Match what you see to the likely pest. Do not use fumigation “bombs” or buy chemicals from private sellers. They are dangerous and illegal for home use in Dubai. Call a professional instead.
| What you notice | Likely pest | What to do now | How urgent |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small brown insects at night, droppings like pepper, a musty smell | Cockroaches | Store food in sealed containers, keep sinks and floors dry | Same week |
| Trails of tiny insects to food or sweet spills | Ants | Clean spills, seal food and note where the trail enters | Same week |
| Itchy bites in a line, small dark spots on the mattress or bed frame | Bed bugs | Wash bedding hot, do not move furniture between rooms | Same day |
| Scratching at night, droppings, gnawed wires or packaging | Rats or mice | Remove food sources and call us, as rodents can damage wiring | Same day |
| Pets scratching, bites on ankles, small jumping insects | Fleas and ticks | Treat the pet with a vet, wash bedding and call us for the home | Same week |
| Wasps or bees nesting near a balcony, window or garden | Bees and wasps | Keep away from the nest and do not block it or spray it yourself | Same day |
What Does FixPro’s Pest Control Service Include?
- Inspection and identification: finding the pest, the nesting spots and the entry points
- Targeted treatment: applying the treatment where the pest lives and travels, not spraying everywhere
- Preventive measures: advice on sealing gaps, storing food and cutting off water sources
- Homes and workplaces: apartments, villas, offices and commercial spaces
- Service report: a record of what was treated, with recommendations for follow-up
Pest problems often start with something else, such as a leak, a gap or a dirty duct. See our plumbing, handyman services and AC duct cleaning for the repairs that keep pests out. Regular treatments can be scheduled through our AMC maintenance packages.
How Much Does Pest Control Cost in Dubai?
General pest control in Dubai typically costs about AED 200 to AED 450, depending on property size, and treatment for a single pest such as cockroaches, bed bugs or ants costs about AED 150 to AED 400. Heavy infestations can cost more, and rodents and termites are usually quoted after an inspection.

|---|---|---|
| Studio | about 199 | about 149 |

General market benchmarks from ServiceMarket and other published Dubai price guides. Some prices exclude VAT. Not a FixPro quote.
See ServiceMarket’s pest control cost guide for Dubai and Real Estate Club Dubai’s 2026 move-in cost guide. At FixPro, a General Maintenance visit starts from AED 99 and covers the call-out, inspection and diagnosis.
What Affects the Price of Pest Control?
- Property size: treatment usually covers the whole home, so larger homes cost more
- Type of pest: bed bugs, rodents and termites take more work than a standard ant or cockroach treatment
- Severity: a heavy or long-running infestation needs more product and more time
- Number of visits: stubborn pests often need a follow-up treatment
- Access: cluttered rooms, false ceilings and gardens add time
Ask every company what the price covers, how many visits it includes and whether VAT is added.
Is Pest Control Safe for Children and Pets?
It can be, if you follow the technician’s instructions. Keep children, pets and food away from the treated area during the work, and return when the technician says it is safe. Gulf News advises that young children stay away for about five to six hours, while many general treatments allow people back after about two to four hours. The right time depends on the pest, the method and the property, so ask before the visit.
Before the visit:
- Put food, plates and cooking items in sealed containers or cupboards
- Remove toys, pet bowls and bedding from the treated rooms
- Tell the technician about babies, pregnant women, older people and pets, including fish tanks
- Clear space around skirting boards, kitchens and bathrooms
After the visit, ventilate the rooms and wipe treated floors as advised. See the Gulf News guide on pest control for pet owners and young families.
How Do You Check a Pest Control Company in Dubai?
Dubai pest control companies must be approved by Dubai Municipality, and pesticides must meet approved standards. Ask any company to show its trade licence and Dubai Municipality approval before work starts, and check it against the municipality’s approved list. Do not carry out fumigation yourself or buy chemicals from private sellers. Authorities have warned that aluminium phosphide “bombs” are banned for home use and have caused deaths.
- Ask for the company’s trade licence and Dubai Municipality approval
- Ask which products they use and whether they suit homes with children and pets
- Ask whether a trained supervisor will be present during treatment
- Ask for the treatment scope, the number of visits and the price in writing
- Walk away from anyone who offers fumigation “bombs” or smoke treatments for your home
See the Khaleej Times guides on pest control in Dubai and why you should not “bomb” your home. These articles are older, so check the current Dubai Municipality guidance.
How Often Do You Need Pest Control in Dubai?
Book treatment as soon as you see pests, and when you move into a new home. For prevention, many Dubai homes do well with one treatment a year plus a follow-up a couple of months later, and homes with recurring problems may need a visit every two to three months. Villas with gardens, buildings with shared kitchens and restaurants usually need more frequent visits than a quiet apartment.
Why Do Pests Keep Coming Back?
Treatment kills the pests that are there, but they return if the cause remains. Pests can come back through gaps in doors and walls, shared pipes and ducts, neighbouring flats, and boxes, bags and laundry brought into your home. In Dubai, leaking pipes, wet drains, AC condensation and food waste give cockroaches, ants and rodents water and food.
- Seal gaps around pipes, doors, windows and kitchen units
- Fix leaks and dripping AC drains, and keep sinks dry at night
- Store food in sealed containers and take out rubbish daily
- Clean behind appliances and inside cupboards regularly
- Inspect second-hand furniture, boxes and luggage before bringing them inside
Pest Control When You Move In or Out
Book pest control before you move your furniture into a new home, and after any renovation. Do pest control first, then AC duct cleaning, then the deep clean, so dust and residue do not undo the cleaning. Check your tenancy contract for who pays, keep the service report and take dated photos of any infestation you find. If you find pests soon after moving in, tell your landlord in writing.
How a FixPro Pest Control Visit Works
- Tell us the problem. Send a photo and tell us the pest, the rooms affected and the property type.
- Get a clear price. We confirm the scope, the price and an arrival window.
- Inspect. The technician identifies the pest and looks for nests and entry points.
- Treat. We apply the treatment to the right areas, and explain how long to stay away.
- Advise and follow up. We give you a service report and prevention advice, and recommend a follow-up visit where the pest needs one.
If the infestation turns out to be bigger than expected, we stop, explain and quote before doing anything more.
Is the Cheapest Pest Control in Dubai the Best Choice?
Not usually. A very low price can mean a quick spray without an inspection, no follow-up, unapproved products or extra charges added on the day. Residents often regret hiring a company without checking it first. Ask before you book:
- Are you approved by Dubai Municipality, and can I see the licence?
- Does the price include the inspection, all rooms and VAT?
- Which pests are covered, and is a follow-up visit included if they return?
- Are your products suitable for children and pets, and how long must we stay away?
- Will you give me a service report?

Pest Control FAQs
How much does pest control cost in Dubai? General pest control typically costs about AED 200 to AED 450 depending on property size, and a single-pest treatment about AED 150 to AED 400. Rodents, termites and large infestations are quoted after inspection.
How long does pest control take? A general treatment for an apartment often takes under an hour, while bed bugs, rodents and larger properties take longer. We confirm the time when we quote.
Is pest control safe for children and pets? It can be when you follow the technician’s instructions. Keep children, pets and food away during treatment and return when the technician says it is safe, which is often after a few hours.
Do I have to leave my home during treatment? For most treatments you should leave the treated rooms and keep children and pets away for the time the technician advises. Tell us about babies, pregnant women, older people and pets before the visit.
How do I know a pest control company is approved in Dubai? Ask for its trade licence and Dubai Municipality approval, and check it with the municipality. Never use anyone who offers fumigation “bombs” for homes.
How often should I do pest control in Dubai? Treat as soon as you see pests and when you move in. For prevention, many homes need one treatment a year with a follow-up, and problem homes every two to three months.
Why do cockroaches keep coming back after treatment? Usually because water, food or entry points remain. Fix leaks, seal gaps, store food and ask for a follow-up if the problem returns.
How do I get rid of bed bugs? Bed bugs need professional treatment, often with a follow-up visit. Wash bedding hot, do not move infested furniture to other rooms and call us with a photo of the bites or marks.
Who pays for pest control, the tenant or the landlord? It depends on your tenancy contract and on how the pests got in. Tell your landlord in writing, especially for pests found soon after moving in, and keep the service report.
How do I get a pest control quote? Send a photo of the pest or the problem area on WhatsApp, with the property type and number of bedrooms. We confirm the price before treatment starts.
