| Service | Typical price | Notes |
|---|---|---|

| Ant treatment (one-off) | S$140–S$150 per treatment | Baiting targets the colony |
| Bed bug treatment (2 sessions) | S$450–S$600 per job | Single-session quotes rarely solve the problem |
| Rodent control (around 4 visits) | S$150–S$500 per programme |  |
| Mosquito treatment | S$100–S$300 per session | Fogging must be notified to NEA in advance |
| Termite chemical treatment | S$500–S$1,500 per job | Soil treatment and baiting systems cost more |

## Licences
- **Vector Control Operator (VCO) certificate of registration** (National Environment Agency (NEA), required): Only companies registered with NEA as VCOs can be engaged to carry out vector control works. A VCO must employ at least one dedicated licensed technician with three years' experience and display its certificate at its business premises. Check: http://file.go.gov.sg/q9fbqn.pdf
- **Vector Control Technician (VCT) licence / Vector Control Worker certificate** (National Environment Agency (NEA), required): Individuals carrying out vector control work must be licensed (technicians) or certified (workers) after completing the Joint ITE-NEA or RP-NEA pest management course, and must carry their licence while working.

## How to choose
- Confirm the company is on NEA's list of registered Vector Control Operators and ask the technician to show their NEA licence on arrival.
- Ask for an inspection before a quote, especially for termites and bed bugs, where treatment depends on where the infestation is.
- Compare treatment methods, not just prices: gel baits for German cockroaches, colony baits for ants, multiple visits for bed bugs and rodents.
- Ask what preparation you need to do and how long people and pets must stay out after treatment.
- Get the warranty or re-treatment terms in writing, including how many free follow-up visits are included.

## Red flags
- Single-visit bed bug treatment with a guarantee of total elimination.
- Companies that cannot show an NEA VCO certificate or technicians without a licence card.
- Use of unlabelled chemicals; pesticides used for vector control must be registered and bear NEA's registration mark.
- Very long prepaid contracts sold at the first visit.

## FAQs
### How much does pest control cost in Singapore?
Published 2026 rates for a 4-room HDB flat are around $140 for a one-off cockroach or ant treatment, about $450–$600 for bed bugs over two sessions, and $150–$500 for a rodent programme of several visits. Termite treatment starts around $500 for chemical treatment and rises with soil treatment, baiting systems or fumigation. Get an inspection before accepting a quote.

### Does a pest control company need a licence in Singapore?
Yes. Only companies registered with NEA as Vector Control Operators can be engaged for vector control work, and individual technicians must hold an NEA Vector Control Technician licence or Vector Control Worker certificate. NEA publishes a list of registered VCOs, and technicians must carry their licence while working.

### Why do bed bugs need more than one treatment?
Bed bug eggs are resistant to many treatments, so a second session about a week or two later is needed to kill newly hatched bugs before they breed. Most reputable companies quote bed bug treatment as at least two sessions. Wash bedding at high temperatures and reduce clutter to improve results.

### Who pays for termite treatment in a rented flat?
It depends on your tenancy agreement, so check its clauses on pest control and structural damage. Termites can damage built-in carpentry, door frames and parquet, so report signs such as mud tubes, hollow-sounding wood or discarded wings to your landlord in writing as soon as you notice them.
