How to Identify a Pest from a Photo

Practical pest-control information
Pest Control Guides
Use these guides to document pest evidence, understand sensible first steps, and decide whether you need identification information or a professional service.
Guides provide general information. Property-specific treatment and safety instructions depend on the pest, product label, property and agreed service.
Direct answer
What can you find in the pest-control guides?
The guide library provides source-reviewed answers to practical pest questions for homes and businesses. Each article separates identification, prevention and professional service, explains what can be checked safely, and states what cannot be concluded from one photograph or sign. Treatment methods remain property-specific and must follow the relevant product label and service instructions.

25 years of family-run pest-control experience
EXTERMINATOR.GE is a family-run pest-control and sanitation business that has operated for 25 years. Practical knowledge has passed between generations, including how pest evidence, property conditions, disinfection needs and suitable professional treatment categories are assessed.
Experience supports the assessment; it does not replace evidence or guarantee an outcome. Work is accepted only after the request, access and property conditions are reviewed.

Information, Identification or Service?
A guide answers a practical question. The pest library supports comparison, while the service hub is the correct path for a property-specific request.
Frequently asked questions
Questions About the Guide Library
Are these guides a substitute for an inspection?
No. They help organise evidence and explain general next steps, but a photograph or written description may be insufficient to identify the pest or select a property-specific treatment.
Do the guides provide pesticide mixing or dosage instructions?
No. The guides do not provide pesticide recipes, mixing ratios or unconfirmed application instructions. Any product use must follow its label and the instructions set for the property and service.
How are new guide topics selected?
Topics are selected from recurring customer questions, relevant search demand and gaps between the identification library and published service pages. Each new article must add distinct information.
Will the library include more pest and cleaning guides?
Yes, when the topic has an approved operational scope, reliable supporting information and enough unique content to justify a separate page in all three website languages.
Need a property-specific answer?
Use the Guide, Then Share the Evidence
Compare the available information, then send the pest signs, affected location, property type and contact details through the appropriate service path.
