About bees and wasps
European wasp nests in wall cavities and gardens are genuinely dangerous and should not be tackled with hardware-store spray after dark. Licensed controllers treat the nest entrance with dust that workers carry inside, killing the colony within days. Honey bee swarms are different: reputable operators refer healthy swarms to local beekeepers for relocation rather than exterminating them.
Getting quotes in Shortland
Before booking a pest controller for bees and wasps, ask whether the price includes GST, callout and materials, and get it in writing. The quoting spread between operators in the same suburb is bigger than most people expect, which is exactly why comparing pays.

Quick answers
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.
