Pest sighting log
Capture what you saw — date, room, signs, and next step — before you wash the sheets, throw the mattress, or call someone. Multiple entries stay in this browser. The log helps you capture details. It is not a diagnosis.
Sighting log
Record what you saw
A dated note beats a fuzzy memory when you talk to a pro — or when you check the same room next week. Entries stay in this browser on this device. This is a log, not a diagnosis.

Identify first, then decide DIY vs professional
A photo, a date, and the room are enough to start. If activity spreads, involves the structure, or involves a pest you cannot confidently name, get a local inspection.
What do people usually ask?
- What should you put in a pest sighting log?
- Record the date, room, what you think the pest is, the signs (insects, droppings, bites, damage), and anything you already tried. Add more entries as you see activity so the timeline and pattern line stay current. The PDF helps you capture what you saw. It is not medical, legal, or pest-control advice, and it is not a diagnosis.
- Does PestLogPro store my sighting log?
- Entries stay in this browser on this device (localStorage). We do not keep a server copy or user account. We do not get a copy unless you also send the optional email field to a connected form endpoint. Use Clear all data to wipe the log on this device. The PDF is built on your device.
- When should you log a sighting before treating?
- Log first when you might wash bedding, throw furniture, or spray a consumer product that erases evidence. Heat companies, chemical technicians, and landlords all ask when you first saw insects and where. A dated record is more useful than an itchy memory. Confirm insects when you can, then decide DIY versus a licensed operator.
