Roop Nagar is one of the quieter colonies on the University of Delhi side, tucked between Kamla Nagar and Shakti Nagar just off the North Campus. It has kept its old residential character — wide-fronted kothis, tree-lined lanes and settled families — but over the years a large share of those houses have been split into paying-guest floors and single-room student rentals for the DU crowd. That mix of long-settled homes and high-churn rentals is exactly what shapes the pest problems here, and it is different from a pure market belt or a plain residential block.
The headline job in Roop Nagar is bed bugs, and it comes straight out of the student rentals: every admission season a new set of mattresses, bags and hostel bedding moves in, and bed bugs ride along. Right behind that is termite, quietly feeding on the solid original woodwork in the older kothis — staircases, door frames and almirahs that were built to last. Cockroaches are the third steady job, worse now that single kothis carry three or four kitchens across converted floors. Our crew runs right across North & Central Delhi, so once you book we are 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 number-one call we get from Roop Nagar. The colony is packed with single-room student rentals and paying-guest floors serving DU North Campus, and bed bugs love that setup. They travel in luggage, on second-hand mattresses and along the bedding students bring from home or a previous hostel, and once inside they hide in the mattress seams, the joints of a wooden cot, behind the headboard and along the skirting. Because rooms share walls, an infestation in one room quietly spreads to the next through cracks and along common corridors. Students often mistake the bites for mosquitoes for weeks before they spot the bugs.
Our bed bug treatment is a two-visit protocol: a thorough first treatment of the mattress seams, cot joints, headboard, skirting and any wooden furniture, then a follow-up after 10 to 14 days to kill the eggs that hatch after the first round — because no single treatment kills eggs, the second visit is what actually finishes the job. We treat a single room without touching the rest of the building if that is all you need, and we tell the owner honestly if an adjoining room looks infested too. Bed bug treatment starts at ₹1,299 per room, and for a whole PG we quote by the number of rooms.
For the many Roop Nagar owners who run paying-guest floors, bed bugs and cockroaches are a recurring headache tied to the admission calendar. Every turnover season a room empties, a new tenant arrives with fresh bedding, and the cycle starts again. Chasing it one room at a time never really wins. What works far better is a light AMC — we treat rooms as they turn over, do a full-floor sweep before each new session, and come back for a quick check whenever a tenant reports bites. It keeps the whole rental under control instead of firefighting, and you get a consolidated GST invoice and audit-ready records for your files. A clean, bug-free room is also easier to fill, so most owners find the AMC pays for itself. We quote it by the number of rooms and floors.
Behind the rentals, Roop Nagar is still a colony of older kothis, and those houses were built with a lot of solid original woodwork — wooden staircases, heavy door and window frames, built-in almirahs and skirting. Termites have been feeding on that woodwork quietly in many of these homes for years. The first sign is usually a door frame that sounds hollow when you tap it, thin mud tubes climbing a wall near the skirting, or a soft, papery patch on an almirah back. Ground-floor rooms sit closest to the soil, where termites come up through the wall-floor junction, so they tend to go first.
We treat it with anti-termite chemical injection — fine drill holes at the wall-floor junction and into the affected woodwork, CIB&RC-approved chemical injected under pressure, then the holes sealed. There is no demolition and nothing gets ripped out; the original staircase and frames stay in place. A kothi usually starts around ₹2,499 and is quoted by the area and the number of floors treated. Where the house has been split into rented floors, we can treat the shared woodwork and each floor in one visit.
When a single Roop Nagar kothi is divided into three or four rented floors, each with its own kitchen and pantry, you end up with far more food, more plumbing and more warm hiding spots than the building was ever designed for — and German cockroaches thrive on it. They move between floors through the shared plumbing risers and wall cracks, so one spotless kitchen upstairs still sees roaches coming up from the pantry below. We treat with targeted gel bait in kitchens and bathrooms, which the roaches carry back to the nest rather than scattering the way a spray does. Where several floors share the problem, treating them together or putting the whole house on an AMC so the common risers are covered is what actually holds. A single floor’s cockroach treatment starts at ₹599.
Two smaller but steady jobs round out the year here. Rats find their way into ground-floor kitchens and store rooms, especially in the older kothis where there are gaps under doors, along service ducts and around the drainage. We handle them with tamper-proof bait stations plus entry sealing so they cannot simply walk back in, from ₹999. And once the monsoon arrives, the colony’s small parks, choked lane drains and unused overhead tanks on the older buildings start holding water — all a mosquito needs to breed. North Delhi has a long dengue history, so from June onward our mosquito control (thermal fogging plus larvae treatment of standing water) is in steady demand across Roop Nagar for homes, PGs and shared roof spaces. Treating the breeding sites, not just fogging the air, is what actually brings the numbers down. From ₹699.
The price quoted on the call is what you pay — no surprise additions when the technician arrives.
For a house that has been split into student rentals, a one-off treatment only goes so far — the next tenant brings the bed bugs straight back, and cockroaches keep re-entering through the shared risers. An annual maintenance contract covers four quarterly visits, free re-treatments in between, scheduled reminders, and one consolidated GST invoice. For PG owners it keeps every room bug-free through the admission cycle with audit-ready records; for a family living in part of an older kothi, it covers the common woodwork and risers so termite and roaches do not creep back from the rented floors. A whole building can be bundled together. Base AMC starts at ₹2,999/year, quoted by size and number of rooms.

Yes. Most of our Roop Nagar bed bug jobs are single student rooms or one PG floor. We do a two-visit treatment — a thorough first spray and dust of the mattress seams, cot joints, headboard, skirting and any wooden furniture, then a follow-up after 10 to 14 days to kill the eggs that hatch. Because bed bugs travel between adjoining rooms through shared walls and along luggage, we always tell the owner if a neighbouring room looks infested too, but we can and do treat just your room. Bed bug treatment starts at ₹1,299 per room.
That is the reality of a student PG — every new admission season a fresh batch of mattresses, bags and hostel bedding arrives, and bed bugs come with them. One-off treatments alone will always chase the problem. What works is a light AMC where we treat rooms as they turn over and do a full-floor sweep before each new session, plus a quick check whenever a tenant reports bites. It keeps the whole PG under control instead of one room at a time, and you get a GST invoice and audit-ready records for the owner. We quote it by the number of rooms.
Yes. Roop Nagar’s older kothis have a lot of solid original woodwork — staircases, door frames, almirahs and skirting — and termites work through it quietly. We treat it with CIB&RC-approved anti-termite injection: fine drill holes at the wall-floor junction and into the affected woodwork, chemical injected, then the holes are sealed. No demolition, no ripping out frames. A kothi usually starts around ₹2,499 and is quoted by the area and number of floors treated.
When a kothi is divided into several rented floors and pantries, you get more kitchens, more food and more shared plumbing than the building was built for — and German cockroaches move between floors through the common risers and wall cracks no matter how clean one kitchen is. We use targeted gel bait in the kitchens and bathrooms, which the roaches carry back to the nest instead of scattering the way a spray does. Where several floors share the problem, treating them together or putting the building on an AMC is what actually holds. Cockroach treatment starts at ₹599.
Yes. We use only CIB&RC-approved chemicals with pet-safe and child-safe protocols. For bed bug work in student rooms we tell tenants to keep the room clear for a few hours and to wash and heat-dry their bedding, which makes the treatment far more effective. For kitchens with kids or pets upstairs we prefer targeted gel baits over open sprays where possible. Just tell the crew who is in the house — students, elders, a baby or a pet — and they will handle it accordingly.
