Pragati Vihar is a settled government-quarter colony tucked between Lodi Road and the CGO complex — blocks of allotted flats and quarters built decades ago, ringed by lawns, hedges and mature trees, with office canteens and institutional pantries close by. That character shapes the pest problems here in a very specific way. The headline job is termite: the quarters were built with solid teak door frames, window shutters, almirahs and skirting, and after thirty or forty years termites have quietly worked into a lot of that woodwork. Alongside that, the flats and the office canteens near the CGO complex keep German cockroaches fed, and the generous garden lawns and old overhead tanks turn into mosquito-breeding grounds once the monsoon lands.
Our crew runs right across North & Central Delhi, so once you book we’re usually at your gate the same day or the next morning. Every treatment uses CIB&RC-approved chemicals, with pet-safe and child-safe handling, and we send before-and-after photos on WhatsApp.
This is the headline job in Pragati Vihar. The allotted quarters and flats near Lodi Road are old, solidly built, and full of the kind of seasoned teak woodwork termites feed on — door and window frames, shutters, almirah backs, skirting and the occasional wooden partition. The first sign is usually a door frame that sounds hollow when you tap it, thin mud tubes climbing the wall near the skirting, or a fine dusting of wood powder under an almirah. Ground-floor quarters sit closest to the soil where termites come up through the wall-floor junction, so they tend to go first, but upper floors are far from safe once a colony is established. We treat it with anti-termite chemical injection — drilling and injecting CIB&RC-approved chemical into the affected woodwork and the wall-floor junction, quarter by quarter. It is a clean, low-disruption job that suits an allotted government quarter, and a single quarter usually starts around ₹2,499 depending on how much woodwork needs treating.
The second big job here is cockroaches, and it comes from two directions. In the quarter blocks and flats, the buildings are connected top to bottom by shared plumbing risers, common drains and pantries, so German cockroaches move between units through wall cracks and pipe gaps no matter how spotless your own kitchen is. We treat the flats with targeted gel bait in kitchens and bathrooms, which the roaches carry back to the nest rather than scattering the way a spray does. The other source is the office canteens, staff pantries and institutional kitchens around the CGO complex and Lodi Road — warm, food-rich rooms that keep a roach population going. For those we run institutional commercial pest control after hours, with audit-ready records. A single flat’s cockroach treatment starts at ₹599; canteens are a custom quote.
Pragati Vihar has the kind of green surrounds most Delhi colonies would envy — lawns between the blocks, hedges, mature trees, garden taps and old overhead tanks. The flip side is that once the monsoon arrives, all of it starts holding water: tank overflows, plant saucers, blocked garden drains and low spots in the lawn. That is all a mosquito needs to breed, and Central Delhi has a long dengue history. Our mosquito control pairs thermal fogging of the gardens, hedges and block surrounds with larvae treatment of the standing water — because treating the breeding sites, not just fogging the air, is what actually brings the numbers down. It works especially well as a scheduled monsoon-season visit for a whole block or the colony’s common areas. From ₹699.
The older quarter blocks, their service ducts and the drains around the canteens give rats easy runs and nesting spots, especially near any block with a pantry or kitchen. For rodents we place tamper-proof bait stations and then seal the entry points — gaps under doors, along service ducts and shared walls — so they can’t simply walk back in. We also handle the everyday ants, silverfish and the occasional bed-bug job that come with settled, long-occupied quarters; a general combo treatment covers the whole home in one visit from ₹999.
The price quoted on the call is what you pay — no surprise additions when the technician arrives.
For a quarter block, an office canteen or an institutional pantry, a one-off treatment only goes so far — cockroaches come straight back through the common risers and rats return from the shared drains. An annual maintenance contract covers four quarterly visits, free re-treatments in between, scheduled reminders, and one consolidated GST invoice — which suits a department, a contractor or an RWA managing several blocks. For canteens and institutional kitchens it keeps you inspection-ready with audit-ready records and regular documented visits; for the residential blocks it covers the common risers and lawns so cockroaches, rats and mosquitoes don’t keep re-entering. Several blocks or a whole colony can be bundled together. Base AMC starts at ₹2,999/year, quoted by size.

Yes. The government quarters around Pragati Vihar are decades old with solid teak door frames, window shutters, almirahs and skirting, and termite works through them quietly. We treat quarter by quarter — drilling and injecting CIB&RC-approved anti-termite chemical into the affected woodwork and the wall-floor junction where the termites come up from the soil. It is a clean, low-disruption job and does not damage the allotted quarter. A single quarter usually starts around ₹2,499 depending on how much woodwork needs treating, and we send before-and-after photos on WhatsApp.
Yes. We handle the canteens, pantries and staff kitchens attached to the offices and institutions around the CGO complex and Lodi Road. It is targeted gel-bait cockroach treatment in the kitchen and prep areas plus tamper-proof rodent stations where needed, scheduled after hours so the canteen isn’t disrupted, with audit-ready records and one consolidated GST invoice for the department or contractor. Most institutional kitchens go on a monthly or fortnightly AMC rather than one-off visits. Pricing is a custom quote based on kitchen size.
In the quarter blocks and flats the buildings are connected top to bottom by shared plumbing risers, common drains and the canteen or pantry on the ground floor, so German cockroaches move between units through wall cracks and pipe gaps no matter how clean your own kitchen is. We use targeted gel bait in your kitchen and bathrooms, which the roaches carry back to the nest rather than scattering the way a spray does. Where a whole block is affected, putting the block on an AMC so the common risers are covered is what actually holds. Cockroach treatment starts at ₹599.
Pragati Vihar has generous lawns, hedges, garden taps and old overhead tanks, and after the monsoon all of them hold water — which is all a mosquito needs to breed. We do thermal fogging of the garden, hedges and block surrounds plus larvae treatment of the standing water in tank overflows, plant saucers and choked drains. Treating the breeding sites, not just fogging the air, is what actually brings the numbers down. It works well as a scheduled monsoon-season visit for a whole block or colony. Mosquito control starts at ₹699.
Yes. We use only CIB&RC-approved chemicals with pet-safe and child-safe protocols. For kitchens and homes with children or elderly family we prefer targeted gel baits over open sprays where possible, and we tell you how long to keep the treated area clear — usually a few hours. Just let the crew know about the children and elderly parents when they arrive and they’ll plan the treatment around it.
