A quiet, thorough sweep — not a chemical fog.
BugStop was founded in 2012 by entomologist Dr. Faraz Hussain, who returned from a postgraduate at the University of Reading and was horrified at how Karachi pest control was sold: "spray everything, evacuate the kids, hope it works."
He built BugStop on the integrated pest management (IPM) protocol used across the EU — identify the species, locate the harborage, treat with the minimum-effective product, monitor. Today we run six trucks across Karachi, all techs Pakistan EPA certified.
“A house tells you how it wants to be plumbed. The trick is having quiet enough hands to listen.” — A note pinned above the studio bench
Notes from the bench.
-
01
The first stall
The studio opens with one bench and a short list of jobs.
-
02
Older homes
Pre-war houses that need quiet hands — the jobs we love come knocking.
-
03
The workshop
Same bench, more daylight, the same quiet rituals.
-
Today
Still on the bench
A small crew. The same survey ritual every morning.
Quiet, thorough, evidence-led.
A small selection of letters and notes returned to the studio this past year.
Three pest companies before BugStop, all of them sprayed and the roaches came back in two weeks. Faraz's team baited, came back twice, and the kitchen has been clear for 11 months.
Quarterly contract for two years now. Health inspector signed off without questions. Their reports are detailed enough to file with regulators.
Termite line in the playroom doorframe. Treated with kids and dog at home — no evacuation, no smell, no panic. Five-year guarantee in writing. Worth every rupee for the peace of mind.
Tell us what you have seen — we will identify it before we treat.
Tell us a little about the home and we'll send a survey time within four working hours.
