    Came home from a few days out of town and discovered I had new tenants in the roof: possums. These guys were able to help me almost immediately, and was amazed at how thorough they were. Made short work of "evicting" the possums and fixing things so they wouldn't be able to get back in. Thanks for the great work.

    I think they completely solved my mouse problem. 6 months now and no sign of the little critters. They got rid of the mice and found some areas that they probably used to get into the house. Sealed them up, and so far so good.

    I feel a little silly, I called Peter to my home expecting a hybrid man/possum. I can unequivocal confirm Peter is just a bloke; no possum whatsoever. I'll keep searching for human hybrids.😞

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.
