    Shaun deserves every one of these great reviews. He is friendly, compassionate and professional. We’d have no hesitation whatsoever recommending him.

  • KCKristy C4 Mar 2026

    Shaun was great with his communication throughout our possum removal process. He explained the process, arrived when he said he would and was very easy to deal with.

    Super communicative, and Shaun's method (one way door method... constructed on site, and my home is on the higher side ie. two stories) of liberating your roof, of possum crews, is the best around. Couldn't recommend The Possum Professional any higher. Included a photo of the one way door set-up that was rigged up, specifically for my home. This set-up cleared out my roof in two nights - would have been a single night, if it wasn't for one (out of a crew of four) passive possum posse member.

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.
