Our work in Mantes-la-Jolie
Mantes-la-Jolie (78200) is one of the towns where we regularly work in Yvelines. Tenant, owner or manager: the Repère Protocol applies for your building, with monitoring traps, targeted treatment, a follow-up visit and gaps filled.
ExpertCafard works for residents and for the people who run the building: owner-occupiers, tenants, professional or volunteer managing agents (syndics) and residents' councils. The Repère Protocol then covers the whole building: monitoring traps in common areas and in volunteers' flats, a map of the hotspots, coordinated treatment, a follow-up visit and a photo report the managing agent can pass on to residents.
In the Yvelines, period houses sit alongside recent developments. Cockroaches follow the warmth of basements and plant rooms; crawl spaces and lofts host mice and dormice, and roofs regularly shelter wasp nests in the warmer months. Our technicians know this kind of building, and the inspection in Mantes-la-Jolie takes it into account from the first visit.
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.
- 01
Locate
Torch-in-hand inspection of warm, damp common areas (bin room, rubbish chute, risers, boiler room, cellars) and of the kitchens reported. Monitoring traps set, hotspots mapped.
- 02
Treat
Coordinated treatment of shared hotspots and affected flats: gel bait in spots, insect growth regulator, targeted spraying. For rodents, secure numbered bait stations.
- 03
Check
Follow-up visit built into the protocol: monitoring traps read flat by flat, treatment adjusted wherever activity remains.
- 04
Prevent
Photo report, gaps between flats filled (risers, pipe penetrations, traps), advice for residents and active vigilance in common areas.
Cockroaches first, and the rest too
- German cockroaches (kitchens, stacks, risers)
- Oriental cockroaches (cellars, rubbish chutes)
- Bed bugs (adjoining flats)
- Rats and mice (cellars, courtyards, bin rooms)
- Fleas (cellars, empty flats)
- Wasps and hornets (lofts, façades)
Who it's for
- Owner-occupiers
- Tenants
- Residents' councils
- Professional managing agents
- Volunteer managers
- Landlords and letting agents
Who is responsible for what
The règlement sanitaire départemental (local public-health code) requires buildings and their outbuildings to be kept clean and the necessary steps taken against insects and rodents. Common areas are the responsibility of the owners' association, represented by the managing agent.
In a rented flat, the landlord must hand over a home free of pests and parasites (French law of 6 July 1989, amended by the 2018 ELAN law), while the occupant handles day-to-day upkeep. A dated report for each visit lets everyone see what was done, where and when.
Can you look after several buildings in and around Mantes-la-Jolie?
Yes. Each building has its own plan, schedule and reports, and you keep one point of contact for all your sites in Yvelines.
Does the general meeting have to vote?
A one-off job in common areas usually falls under the managing agent's day-to-day management. Year-round follow-up goes into the annual budget; we supply a detailed quote and a short brief to attach to the meeting notice if the residents' council wants a vote.
Does every flat have to be treated?
Not necessarily. Monitoring traps show which flats and stacks are affected. We treat the shared hotspots and the flats concerned, then widen the scope if the follow-up visit finds activity elsewhere.
Are the products safe for children and pets?
Our technicians hold the Certibiocide and use approved products, applied in targeted spots rather than sprayed everywhere. Rodent stations are fixed in place and out of reach of children and pets. Every resident gets instructions before the visit.
