Common Questions
Melbourne Pest Control FAQs
How much does pest control cost in Melbourne?
Treatments start from $160. Termite inspections and treatments are quoted based on property size, construction type and treatment method, with all prices confirmed upfront so there are no surprises.
Are older Melbourne homes at higher termite risk?
Yes. Weatherboard and timber-frame homes common in Melbourne's inner suburbs are particularly vulnerable to termite damage. An annual inspection is strongly recommended for these properties.
Do you treat commercial properties across Melbourne?
Yes, including CBD offices, restaurants, aged care, retail and industrial sites. We provide pest management programs with full service reports and compliance certificates.
Is same day pest control available in Melbourne?
Yes, across most Melbourne suburbs. Call 13 11 05 or request a quote and we'll confirm availability within 2 hours.
Are treatments safe for my pets and children?
All treatments use APVMA-registered products applied by fully licensed technicians. Your tech will advise on any short re-entry periods specific to your treatment.
Why have you won the ProductReview Award 5 times?
Because we employ local franchise owners rather than subcontractors, and they live or work in the same community as their customers. That accountability shows up in the quality of every job.
