Our work in Créteil

In Créteil, every job for your building starts torch in hand, in the warm, damp spots where cockroaches settle. That inspection shapes the treatment, the follow-up check and the gaps to fill.

We treat the building from behind the scenes: from cellar to loft, each area is inspected, monitored with traps, treated according to the species, then sealed. The caretaker, landlord or manager receives an area-by-area photo report the same day, and residents know what to do in their own homes.

Val-de-Marne, where our head office is based, alternates suburban streets, 1960s-70s tower blocks and food hubs around Rungis. Oriental cockroaches like damp basements and drains, German cockroaches prefer kitchens, and the banks of the Marne and the Seine remain rodent country. These local features guide the inspection in Créteil, as they do across the rest of the département.

Repère Protocol

We find the source before we treat

The Repère Protocol always follows the same order: find where the pests live, treat right there, check with monitoring traps, then fill the gaps and advise the occupants.

  1. 01

    Locate

    Torch inspection of service areas, borescope in risers where needed, monitoring traps in every area and a hotspot map.

  2. 02

    Treat

    Gel bait and growth regulator in chutes, risers and bin rooms, dry steam on soiled surfaces; secure bait stations in cellars and car parks for rodents.

  3. 03

    Check

    Follow-up visit as set out in the protocol: traps read area by area, another treatment wherever activity continues.

  4. 04

    Prevent

    Penetrations and sleeves sealed, before/after photo report, upkeep advice for the caretaker and instructions for residents.

Regulatory context

Bin rooms and rubbish chutes need watching

The règlement sanitaire départemental (local public-health code) requires bin rooms, rubbish chutes and a building's outbuildings to be kept clean and the necessary steps taken against insects and rodents. They are often the first hotspots in a building.

Treatment does not replace upkeep: regular washing of bins and the bin room, doors that close, drain traps kept wet, leaks fixed. Our report separates what is down to treatment from what is routine maintenance, so everyone knows their part.

FAQ

Questions we often hear

Can you look after several buildings in and around Créteil?

Yes. Each building has its own plan, schedule and reports, and you keep one point of contact for all your sites in Val-de-Marne.

Do residents need to leave?

Not for common areas: treated zones are marked off and instructions posted. For a flat, the technician explains the precautions when you book: empty nearby cupboards, air the room, don't wipe off the gel points.

What about rats in the car park?

With their drains and plant rooms, car parks attract brown rats. We install secure bait stations and trace the entry points from the street and the sewers, then seal them.

Do I need a contract?

No. A one-off job on quote is often enough. If the report shows ongoing pressure around the building, we can then suggest periodic follow-up, with no obligation.
