Bright living room of an apartment offered as a short-term rental

Pest control for Airbnb hosts in Île-de-France

Bed bugs, cockroaches, rodents: protect your property, your guests and your rating with discreet interventions scheduled around your calendar.

The essentials

A short-term rental takes in dozens of suitcases a year, which makes it the property type most exposed to bed bugs and cockroaches. ProDeratisation works across Île-de-France within 24 to 48 hours, in unmarked vehicles and plain clothing, with a two-visit treatment validated by a follow-up check and a written report you can rely on in a dispute with a guest.

Letting a property on Airbnb means running accommodation with a professional's constraints: fast turnover, an expectation of spotless cleanliness and a public review after every stay. It also means, mechanically, carrying a risk most hosts discover too late — bed bugs travel in luggage, and every guest is a potential carrier.

ProDeratisation works with individual hosts, portfolio owners and property managers throughout Île-de-France. Our interventions are built around your real constraint: a booking calendar, neighbours in a shared building and a rating to protect. We move fast, we stay discreet, and we document every visit.

Our Airbnb guides

Each guide covers one specific aspect of pest control in rental accommodation, from spotting bed bugs to legal obligations, in short-term and long-term letting alike.

Why hosts call us

Scheduled around your calendar

We plan visits between bookings, early morning or evening, so your property is off the market for as little time as possible.

Complete discretion in shared buildings

Unmarked vehicles and plain clothing, with no visible branding: neither your neighbours, the building manager nor your next guests will know why we came.

Certified technicians

Certibiocide-certified staff, approved products, controlled dosing and protocols adapted to children and pets in the property.

A written report after every visit

Areas treated, products used, findings: a dated document that carries weight with a guest, a platform or an insurer.

Treatment validated by a follow-up check

The second visit is not an upsell: it kills the nymphs that hatched after the first one and confirms eradication before you relist.

Multi-property prevention contracts

For hosts running several units or a management company: scheduled visits, priority response and consolidated reporting.

What an untreated infestation costs

A review that lasts

A comment mentioning bed bugs stays at the top of your page for months and puts guests off before they ever look at the price.

A blocked calendar

An infestation caught late means weeks off the market, against roughly 48 hours per visit when it is caught early.

Your liability

A property offered for rent must be free of infestation: a guest can claim a refund and compensation, including for their own contaminated belongings.

Spread through the building

Treating it yourself with an aerosol scatters the colony into neighbouring flats and turns a one-flat problem into a building-wide one.

The pests we treat

  • Bed bugs (mattresses, bases, skirting boards)
  • Cockroaches (kitchens, service ducts)
  • Rats and mice (cellars, bin rooms, refuse chutes)

Frequently asked questions

Can you come between two bookings, at short notice?

Yes. We work across Île-de-France within 24 to 48 hours, seven days a week, and we schedule visits into the free slots in your calendar. For bed bugs, allow roughly 48 hours off the market around each visit.

My flat is in a shared building — is that a problem?

No, it is our daily work. We arrive in unmarked vehicles and plain clothing. If the infestation goes beyond your flat, we give you a written report so you can alert the building manager and have the common areas treated.

Can I take bookings between the two visits?

We strongly advise against it. The second visit exists because eggs survive the first: letting the property in between exposes your guest to bites and you to another bad review.

Do you handle several properties for the same owner?

Yes. We work with portfolio owners and management companies: scheduled visits across the whole portfolio, priority response when a guest reports something, and consolidated reporting.

What does treating a rental property cost?

It depends on the floor area, the pest and how far the infestation has gone. The quote is free and issued after an inspection, with no commitment — see our pricing page for typical ranges.

Do you provide something I can use in a dispute?

Yes. Every intervention produces a dated report listing the areas treated, the approved products used and the technician's findings. That is your evidence of diligent maintenance when facing a guest or a platform.
