    I recently had the pleasure of working with Rick from Home Pest Services for a termite inspection, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. As someone with autism, I often find situations like this overwhelming, especially when plans change suddenly. I initially had a different provider booked, but they cancelled abruptly, leaving me in a very stressful situation. Rick stepped in at short notice, and from the moment he arrived, he put me at ease with his professionalism and understanding. Rick was incredibly thorough during the inspection, taking the time to explain what he was doing at each step. His clear communication and calm demeanor made the entire process much more manageable for me. He didn’t just rush through the job; he took the time to ensure I understood his findings and answered all my questions patiently. It was clear that he genuinely cared about providing excellent service, not just completing the job. What stood out most was Rick’s ability to adapt and make me feel comfortable. For someone like me, who relies on structure and clarity, his kindness and willingness to accommodate my needs made a world of difference. It’s rare to find someone who combines expertise with such compassion and understanding. I’m incredibly grateful for Rick’s help and highly recommend Home Pest Services to anyone needing reliable and empathetic pest control. Whether you’re dealing with termites or any other issue, you’ll be in great hands with Rick

    Rick did a fantastic job on our house. Originally he inspected it. And now a few month later, he sprayed the house for insects/pests. Very prompt and reliable service. The guy knows what he is talking about. I can definitely recommend him strongly.

    I was very happy with the job undertaken and the professional manner it was handled. Rick was very thorough and made sure all areas were covered, even though some were very hard to access. I feel confident he eradicated all termites. I would tick all the boxes - good quality, good value, professional, responsive and on time.

    I called Rick because I hadn’t been able to get on top of an ant problem since we moved into our new house. I’d tried all the baits, gels, natural options etc. He came the very next morning, talked through all our options, was very empathetic when I explained I wasn’t keen on killing all the bug life around us, found a solution that targeted just the ants, and the whole service was done within about 12 hours of calling him! He was also great with the very barky dog and my 2 small, curious children. He also very non judgementally helped move the kids toys and general detritus to be able to spray, which was very kind of him. Super friendly, professional, quick and knowledgeable. 10/10, would recommend to family and friends.

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.
