If you’ve ever googled “how much does pest control cost in Dubai?”, you’re not alone. It’s one of the top questions we hear from homeowners, restaurant owners, and even facility managers. After all, pests aren’t just annoying; they can also cause serious damage to property and pose health risks.
The good news? Getting professional pest control in Dubai doesn’t have to be complicated or outrageously expensive. Let’s break down the real costs, what affects pricing, and answer the most common questions people ask us every day.
How Much Does Pest Control in Dubai Cost?
On average, pest control in Dubai costs anywhere between AED 150 and AED 600 per visit. But this number isn’t set in stone; it depends on a few key factors:
- Type of pest: Treating cockroaches or ants is usually cheaper than treating termite or bed bug infestations.
- Property size: A small apartment will cost less than a villa, warehouse, or office building.
- Severity of infestation: A one-off treatment for a light issue is cheaper than multiple visits for a severe case.
- Service type: Preventive treatments (to stop pests before they start) often cost less than emergency exterminations.
Example:
- Small apartment (ants or cockroaches): AED 150–250
- Villa (ants, cockroaches, rodents): AED 250–450
- Larger spaces (restaurants, warehouses, schools): AED 500–600+
If you’re looking for safe, municipality-approved, and eco-friendly pest control, these ranges will help you plan your budget.

How Often Should Pest Control Be Done in Dubai?
Dubai’s climate makes it easy for pests to thrive year-round. Here’s what we recommend:
- Apartments & villas: Every 3–4 months for prevention.& villas: Every 3–4 months for prevention.
- Restaurants & hotels: Monthly treatments due to high food activity.
- Warehouses & schools: Quarterly, unless there’s a severe infestation.
Preventive pest control is always cheaper than waiting for a major problem to show up. Think of it like regular maintenance; it saves money in the long run.
Do I Really Need Professional Pest Control?
Some people try DIY sprays from the supermarket, but here’s the truth:
- Most store-bought products only kill visible pests, not the hidden colonies.
- Termites, bed bugs, and rodents require specialized treatments.

- Faster results
- Longer protection
- Proper safety standards
