Do I need to be home during an appointment?
It's in your best interest to be home during a scheduled appointment with our company, so that our technician can outline the service being performed and offer information on gaining the most benefit from the treatment. If there are any concerns regarding the service to be performed, these can be discussed. Your service can still be performed even if you cannot be home for the appointment, but if this is the case, please advise our office staff and let us know whether a spare key has been left available or if we need to collect a key from a real estate office / neighbour etc.

I work Monday to Friday - Do you offer weekend appointments?
​Yes we do. Our technicians are available for all manner of pest control & home services, however we strongly suggest contacting our admin team as weekend appointments are limited. Scheduling a weekend appointment allows you an opportunity to meet with our technician, discuss the needs of your home and have the work completed - all without having to squeeze in everything during your lunch-break.
* Public Holiday trading may differ - please contact our Head Office team for further information.

I'm vacating my rental property - what services should I schedule?
​Most Real Estate agents will require tenants to perform some form of pest control when they are vacating a rental property. You may need a General Pest control treatment (for cockroaches, ants, webbing spiders and silverfish) or a Flea treatment (if you have had pets) Some agents may ask for both. If you are unsure, please check with your property manager so that we can offer the right service to you.
