Home Should Feel Comfortable. Not Like You're Sharing It With Something Else.

It usually starts small. Then you notice it once, and you can't un-notice it.

  • You hear movement once the lights go off and lie there working out what it is.

  • You've seen something near the food, and now everything gets wiped down twice.

  • The kids' bedrooms are the part that really bothers you.

  • You're not sure whether the dog or cat is being exposed to anything.

  • You'd rather people didn't visit until it's sorted.

  • You keep checking the same cupboard, corner or garage shelf.

Having pests does not automatically mean your home is dirty. Melbourne homes get pests — weather, neighbours, gardens, renovations and plain bad luck all play a part.

Why DIY stalls

If The Spray Worked, You Probably Wouldn't Be Reading This.

Trying a supermarket spray or a few baits first is completely sensible. Plenty of people sort a small problem that way.

The trouble is that DIY products often reduce what you can see without changing what's allowing the pests to stay or come back — harbourage points, entry gaps, moisture, food sources or nests you can't reach. Activity drops for a week or two, then returns.

When the problem keeps coming back, professional pest control is simply the next logical step. Tim assesses what's happening, treats the right areas with the right product for the pest, and tells you what's likely contributing to it.

How much does pest control cost?

It depends on the pest, the property and the treatment required. Tim gives you the treatment price before any work begins, and you approve it first — there are no surprise treatment charges added afterwards.

Do I need to leave the house?

That depends on the treatment. Tim will give you the preparation and re-entry instructions that apply to your job before he starts, so you know how long to stay out and what to do when you come back in.

What if I have children or pets?

Tell Tim before the treatment. He'll take that into account and give you the preparation and re-entry instructions relevant to the treatment being used, so you know exactly what to do around the appointment.

What happens if the pests come back?

If the same covered pest returns in the treated area within 3 months, Tim will come back and re-treat the affected area free of charge. Ask Tim about the guarantee that applies to your treatment.
