Common questions in 2609
How much does pest control cost?+
A general internal and external pest treatment for a standard home typically runs $150 to $350. Termite inspections are usually $250 to $400, and termite barrier or baiting systems run into the thousands depending on the home's perimeter. End-of-lease flea treatments are often around $100 to $200.
Do pest controllers need a licence?+
Yes. Every state licenses pest management technicians, and termite work has additional requirements. Ask for the licence number and check it covers the treatment being quoted, especially for termite chemical barriers where warranties depend on accredited installation.
How often should I get a termite inspection?+
At least annually, per the Australian standard, and every six months in high-pressure areas or homes with previous activity. Concrete slab homes are not immune; termites enter through expansion joints, pipe penetrations and garden beds built above slab level. An inspection also documents conditions before you sell.
Are pest treatments safe for kids and pets?+
Modern treatments used correctly are low-toxicity once dry, and technicians will tell you how long to keep children and pets off treated areas, usually a few hours. Fish tanks need covering and pet bowls put away before spraying. Tell the technician about pets, pregnancy or health conditions when booking so products are chosen accordingly.
Why are pests back after a treatment?+
Some rebound is normal in the first week or two as baits work and residuals flush pests out of hiding. Beyond that, reinfestation usually means a source was missed, conditions like moisture or food access remain, or a neighbouring property is the reservoir. Most reputable operators include a free re-treatment window; check the service period before booking.
