Pest Management For
Hotels & Guesthouses
Room Shield provides quarterly pest inspections for hotels, guesthouses, lodges and hostels across the Kathmandu Valley.
Hotel inspections are quoted per property. Treatment of an infested room carries a separate per-room fee.
- Every guest room is inspected each quarter.
- Each room has its own inspection record card.
Scheduled Room
Inspections
- Every guest room inspected once a quarter: mattress seams, headboards, bed frames, furniture joints and skirting
- A record card for each room, showing the inspection date and what was found
- Corridors, storage, laundry and back-of-house areas included in inspections
- Rodent programme for service areas and roof lines
- Inspections scheduled around housekeeping and occupancy
An inspection tells you what is there on the day. It cannot stop a guest bringing bed bugs in, which is why rooms are checked every quarter.
When A Room
Needs Treatment

Tell us
Message us on WhatsApp. We reply within 2–3 hours, between 5 AM and 9 PM, and agree an inspection time.
- 02
Inspect
We inspect the room and the rooms around it to see how far the problem has spread.
- 03
Treat
Bed bugs are treated with steam plus a residual treatment, over three visits. The fee is per room and quoted before we start.
- 04
Hand over
We record the treatment on the room card and tell you when the room can be used again.
Hotel Pricing
Explained
Hotel inspection and treatment prices are separate. The written quote confirms both charges and any minimum before you sign.

| Infested guest-room treatment | Steam plus a residual treatment over three visits | Separate per-room fee, quoted before work starts |
| Hotel kitchen | Restaurant pest-control programme | Quoted separately from guest-room inspections |
Sites outside Ring Road may carry a travel charge, which we tell you before booking.
Records For

Records you can show an owner, a group head office or a tour operator. A Kavach service record or certificate is not a government approval.

A Kavach certificate with your programme and visit dates.
Callbacks &
New Cases
If pests come back within 48 hours of a scheduled service, tell us and we return to re-treat at no charge. This is written into every contract. A guest room found infested during an inspection is a new job, not a callback, and is treated at a separate per-room fee.

Questions
What hotel owners, general managers and housekeeping managers ask before they sign.
Is bed-bug treatment included in the inspection price?
No. The programme covers the quarterly inspections and the records. A room found with bed bugs is treated at a separate per-room fee, which we quote before we start.
Is there a minimum charge for a small guesthouse?
We quote each property on its room count. Any minimum charge is written into the quote before you sign.
Can rooms stay in use during inspection or treatment?
We schedule inspections around housekeeping and occupancy. A room being treated is taken out of use until we tell you it can be used again; how long depends on the treatment.
How quickly do you respond to a guest complaint?
We reply on WhatsApp within 2–3 hours, between 5 AM and 9 PM, and agree an inspection time with you. A reply is not a completed treatment.
Does the programme include the hotel kitchen and shared areas?
Corridors, storage, laundry and back-of-house areas are part of the inspections. A hotel kitchen is quoted separately under our restaurant programme.
Inspection, treatment or both?
For a hotel quote, tell us whether you need inspections, treatment or both.
- Total number of guest rooms.
- Suspected affected rooms and the observations made.
- Property city.
- Housekeeping or occupancy constraints.
These details help separate the inspection-programme quote from new treatment work.
For a current room problem, see bed-bug treatment and the assessment preparation checklist. Do not send private guest information.
