General pest control is one of the most requested services we offer, but it doesn’t cover every pest. It’s the treatment for common household insects like ants, cockroaches, spiders and silverfish. Termites, rodents and bed bugs need their own separate treatment. Our Pest Control Melbourne team explains this clearly before we start, so you know exactly what you’re getting.
Trails in kitchens, bathrooms and around windows.
Common in kitchens, bathrooms and food storage areas.
Webs around eaves, windows and garden areas.
Found in cupboards, bookshelves and damp storage areas.
What’s Not Covered
These four need their own treatment, and a general spray won’t resolve them.
Need a proper inspection and a specific treatment plan, not a general spray.
Rats and mice need trapping and entry-point checks, which sit outside general treatment.
Need targeted treatment aimed at mattress seams and furniture, not a perimeter spray.
Usually treated as a separate, same-day job because of the safety risk involved.
Telling you this upfront means you get the right treatment the first time, instead of paying for a general spray that was never going to fix the actual problem.
When to Book
If what you’re dealing with sounds more serious, such as ongoing rodent activity or termite damage, let us know when you book so we can treat it properly.
Pests tend to settle in specific parts of a property. Common spots include entry points around doors and windows, damp areas like bathrooms and laundries, garden beds close to the house, and quiet storage areas such as cupboards and garages. Checking these areas properly is what separates a thorough treatment from a quick spray around the edges.
Same-day pest control might be very useful when you suffer from sudden activity of a large number of pests like ants, cockroaches, insects, or wasps. It might also be useful when pests start affecting your property areas like kitchens, bedrooms, offices, or any entrance areas. If there is a need to remove pests in urgent cases, such as when relatives or visitors arrive at your home, this service can be helpful.
Workplaces or businesses need a quick recognition of pest activity, and removing it immediately helps prevent future damage. This affects employees, daily activities, or customers. Our pest inspections in Melbourne help identify the exact location of pest activity and its entry and exit points to offer you suitable treatment.
We check entry points, eaves, garden beds and storage areas.
We confirm which pests are present or likely.
We apply APVMA-registered pesticides as an internal treatment and a barrier around the property.
We flag anything outside general treatment, like termites or an active nest, before assuming it’s covered.
A few small changes around the property remove the entry points and conditions common household pests rely on.
Small openings around doors and windows are common entry points.
Overgrown plants close to the house give pests easy access.
Damp areas attract pests like silverfish and cockroaches.
If something needs a different service, we’ll tell you before we start.
A proper barrier treatment takes more time than a quick spray, and it lasts longer.
From apartments to small offices, we adjust the treatment to suit the property.
If something doesn’t clear up, we’ll say so and recommend the right next step.
We provide reliable pest control services across Melbourne suburbs for both residential and commercial properties.
Share the details with us about the issue you are facing and the current location of your property. Once our team receives your request, they will get back to you about the next step to proceed.
