A Pest Library is an online resource that helps you identify common pests found in homes, offices, and businesses across Pakistan. It includes pest images, behaviors, risks, and treatment options—empowering you to take action early with the right solution.

Look for signs like droppings, bite marks, foul smells, or visible insects. Our Pest Library provides detailed descriptions of common pests in Pakistan such as termites, cockroaches, bed bugs, and rodents, to help you correctly identify the invader.

Yes. Many pests pose health risks such as disease transmission (like dengue from mosquitoes or food poisoning from flies), while others cause structural or property damage, like termites and rodents.

Our Pest Library is maintained by certified pest control experts at Apex Core Enterprises and updated regularly based on local pest activity in cities like Lahore, Rawalpindi, Islamabad, Faisalabad, Gujranwala, and Sialkot.

While basic prevention is possible, most infestations—especially termites, bed bugs, or rodents—require professional pest control services. DIY methods often fail to fully eliminate the problem or make it worse.
