Hi, so my noob account received a 2 day "bot busting" ban at Pest Control.
It seems to be unsafe to bot at Pest control.

Here's a few steps to bot safely at Pest Control to avoid manual banning:
-Bot outside of Jagex' business hours. The bans only seem to happen during these hours.
8am - 5pm GMT, Monday to Saturday.
-If you need to train mage (alch/humidify), then train at the burthorpe games room. There are no random events there and Jmods dont go there.

Personally, I train mage during the business hours and do Pest Control botting outside of those hours.

Hope I helped!

It's been unsafe to bot pest control over the past month, maybe even longer

Yes I know. Just thought these tips may help people.

The ban reason doesn't mean you were manually banned.

I had the same ban reason when I got banned when I wasn't even botting at the time.
