    They are real experts, especially when it comes to handling complex situations like sharing a roof with neighbours. They give practical and effective advice that genuinely works and is always in good faith. The team is humble, honest, and very professional. Matt, in particular, is an amazing person—easy-going and great to deal with. One quality that impressed me the most was their punctuality. They always call before arriving, come on time, and are happy to adjust according to your convenience. Their pricing is also very affordable. Overall, I truly admire their job performance, and we are super satisfied with the service. Highly recommended.

    Great service. Sam was a little late to arrive, but for good reason. He spotted a stray dog on the way, stopped, called the owner and then dropped it home. Excellent service too. Identified very quickly it was a family of sugar glider living in our roof, installed a one way door on their entry point (bathroom fan outlet), sealed all other similar potential entry points with wire grills and came back a couple of weeks later to replace the one way door with a wire grill, but only after checking that there was no more activity in the roof cavity. Problem solved.

    Choosing 1800 Possums was definitely the right choice for us because: the service was prompt and highly professional possums' entrance access into our ceiling was quickly identified and the one way door proved very successful in eliminating further possum access possums have relocated and yes....we are now possum free. We are a very satisfied 1800 Possum customer and highly recommend the company to anyone who has a possum issue. Carmel

    Amazing service. Luke was prompt and extremely thorough in identifying possible entry points and getting them all closed off for me. It didn't take long for the possums to move out. The whole process was straight forward and easy. Would highly recommend.

    Very thorough. We had multiple possums, with a number of different access points and a tricky split-level roof. Luke from 1800 Possums sorted it for us and did a great job and I would highly recommend

    Sam was amazing and professional. We had a possum scurrying through out walls and ceiling. He quickly identified entry points that we had not seen, blocked other entrances/exits, installed a one-way door, and by the next night we did not hear any of the scratching that we had been hearing previously. After around 1 week, he came back and removed the one way door and sealed it up. It has been around one month now since the entrances were sealed up and there has been no sign that the Possum has found a way back into our roof! Highly recommend.

Frequently asked questions

How much do pest controllers typically charge?
Costs vary widely depending on the pest type, how extensive the infestation is, property access and whether follow-up visits are needed. Most pest controllers charge a call-out fee plus an hourly labour rate, with materials and repeat treatments adding to the total. The prices shown on this page update live to help you compare current rates.
Do pest controllers charge call-out fees?
Many pest controllers charge a call-out fee to attend and assess your property, which is usually separate from labour and materials. After-hours, weekend or emergency attendance often attracts higher rates. It's worth confirming any call-out or minimum fees when requesting quotes.
Do pest controllers need a licence in Australia?
Yes. Pest control work generally must be carried out by a licensed pest controller in every Australian state and territory, and in NSW licensing is administered by the NSW Environment Protection Authority (NSW). Providers should display a valid state pest management licence and often hold industry credentials such as AEPMA membership or PestCert accreditation, public liability insurance and an ABN with GST registration. Many also provide a written service report and chemical usage log after treatment.
