General Pest Control Moreton Bay

A complete internal and external treatment for the pests that actually turn up in South East Queensland homes. From $195, with a six month free service period. Narangba based, evening and Saturday appointments.

We treat the whole property, not just the room you saw something in

Most people call because they have seen cockroaches in the kitchen or ants on the bench. That is where the problem is showing, but it is almost never where the problem lives.

A general pest treatment covers the whole house, inside and out. Here is what that involves.

External spray
A water based application to external areas of the building where it is safe to apply. This is the layer that matters most, because it treats the pests before they get inside.
Internal spray
Through the interior of the home, targeting harbourage areas rather than just open floor space.
Cockroach gel to cupboards
Gel baits placed in kitchen and bathroom cupboards, where cockroaches actually harbour and feed. Cockroaches carry the bait back, which reaches the ones you never see.
Dust to weepholes and roof void
Dust gets into the voids and cavities a spray cannot reach, and it stays active in those spaces far longer than a liquid would.
Ant gels as required
Placed where we identify ant activity, based on the species and the trail.

That combination is the difference between knocking down what you can see and actually reducing the population.

Ants are their own problem

Ants are the one pest people most often think has been dealt with when it has not.

A standard general pest treatment will knock ants down where they are trailing, but the nest is usually outside in the garden or the soil around the house, and a treatment inside the home does not reach it. That is why ants come back when everything else stays gone.

Our premium ant treatment adds a granule treatment through gardens and surrounding soil areas, which targets the colonies rather than the trail. If ants are your main reason for calling, this is the option to take.

It also carries a 60 day reinvasion free service period. The standard treatment does not include any ant cover, and we would rather tell you that upfront than have you find out in eight weeks. You can add the premium ant treatment when you book.

The six month free service period, and what it actually covers

We include a six month free service period on reinfestation of cockroaches, web spinning spiders and silverfish. Here is exactly how it works.

What it covers
If you get a reinfestation of cockroaches, web spinning spiders or silverfish within six months, we come back and treat it at no charge.
What it does not cover
The odd sighting. If one cockroach wanders in the back door on a hot night, that is a casual intruder from outside, not a failure of the treatment, and no treatment on earth prevents it. We are looking for an actual infestation, not a single insect.
Ants
Not included unless you have taken the premium ant treatment, which carries its own 60 day period.
Ground dwelling and hunting spiders
Not included. Huntsman and wolf spiders do not build webs in treated areas, so a residual treatment does not control them the way it does web spinning species.
German cockroaches
Not included. German cockroaches are a fundamentally different problem to the species that wander in from outside. They breed indoors, they build up fast, and they need a dedicated treatment program rather than a general pest service. If you have German cockroaches we will tell you and quote accordingly.

Being straight about the boundaries is the point. You know what is covered before you book, not after you call. Full details are in our service guarantee.

Pets, kids and getting back into the house

The most common question we get, and the answer is more relaxed than most people expect.

The products we use are water based. You do not need to pack the family up and leave for the day. We ask you to stay off treated areas for about an hour while they dry, and after that you are back to normal.

We will talk you through anything specific to your place before we start. If you have fish tanks, birds, reptiles or anything else that needs consideration, tell us when you book and we will plan around it.

What we treat

The common household pests of South East Queensland:

Cockroaches
Ants
Spiders
Silverfish

For rodents, we run a separate structured program rather than including it here, because rats and mice need repeat visits and bait station monitoring to actually resolve. See rodent control.

What it costs

General pest control starts at $195, priced upfront based on your property. The premium ant treatment is available as an add-on when you book, and you will see the price before you confirm.

If you also need a termite inspection, our pest packages combine both and work out cheaper than booking them separately. Most Moreton Bay homes should be having a termite inspection annually regardless, so it is worth looking at.
