Quick answer

What does general pest control include?

General pest control is one visit that inspects and treats a home for the four pests Melbourne households see most: cockroaches, spiders, ants and silverfish. It covers the inside of the home, the roof void where needed, and the outside perimeter, eaves, windows and doors where these pests shelter and get in.

Specialist pests are quoted separately because they need different methods: termites, rodents, possums, bees and wasps, bed bugs, fleas and birds. If our pest inspection finds any of them, we tell you on the day and explain the options before any extra work.

What is covered

Four pests covered by general pest control

These are the pests a general treatment is designed for. Each gets the right product in the right place.

Cockroaches

Kitchen, bathroom and laundry gaps, appliances and sub floor treated.

Spiders

Eaves, windows, fences and outdoor furniture sprayed; webs brushed down.

Ants

Trails, nests and entry points treated so ants carry it back.

Silverfish

Roof void dusting plus wardrobes, bookshelves and wet areas.

Inside the home

Skirting, cupboards and wet areas where pests hide.

Outside the home

Perimeter, weep holes, doors and window frames.

Roof void

Dusting where silverfish and cockroaches live out of sight.

Pest inspection

Signs of termites, rodents or other pests reported to you.

How our general pest control visit works

Every general pest control visit starts with a pest inspection. We walk through the home and around the outside, check the kitchen, bathrooms, laundry, sub floor vents and roof void, and look for droppings, webs, trails, damage and entry points. That tells us where to treat and whether anything else needs attention.

Then we treat: targeted gel and dust inside where cockroaches and silverfish hide, a residual spray around the outside perimeter, eaves, windows and doors for spiders and ants, and roof void dusting where needed. You get a short job record with what we did, what we found and when to book again.

Pest control cost

Affordable pest control without cutting corners

Cheap pest control Melbourne ads often mean a quick spray at the front door. Affordable pest control Melbourne families can rely on means the right treatment at a fair, clear price.

Price in writing first

You know the pest control cost before we start, not after.

Proper coverage

Inside, outside and roof void where needed, not just a front step spray.

Extras explained first

If we find something extra, we explain it and quote it before doing it.

Inspection included

Every treatment starts with a look at where the pests are coming from.

Annual is enough

Most Melbourne homes only need a general treatment once a year.

One visit, four pests

One booking covers cockroaches, spiders, ants and silverfish together.

Spraying pests yourself every week? There is a better way.

Shop sprays kill what they touch and scatter the rest. A general pest control treatment lasts for months, reaches where pests breed and saves buying can after can.

Final price confirmed in writing

These are starting prices. Your final price depends on the factors below. We confirm it in writing before any work starts, and nothing goes ahead until you approve it.

What sets your final pest control price

  1. Size of the home. More rooms and a bigger perimeter mean more to treat.
  2. Storeys. Two storey homes need more time for eaves and windows.
  3. Roof void. Roof dusting is added where silverfish or cockroaches need it.
  4. How heavy it is. Heavy cockroach or ant activity may need a follow up.
  5. Outbuildings. Garages, sheds and granny flats can be added.
  6. Other pests. Specialist pests found are quoted separately.
Your questions first

Is general pest control safe, and how long does it last?

The two questions people ask before booking general pest control.

Family and pets

Licensed technicians apply every product exactly as the label directs. Inside, we use targeted gels and dusts in cracks and voids rather than spraying open rooms.

We tell you where pets and children should stay until sprayed areas outside are dry.

How long it lasts

A general treatment keeps working for months. Most Melbourne homes book once a year, often in spring before pests peak.

The treatment is covered by written warranty terms on your job record, explained before you agree.

How much does pest control cost in Melbourne?

A pest inspection starts from $129, a general treatment from $189, and larger or multi storey homes from $289. The final price depends on the home, and you get it in writing before we start.

What pests does general pest control cover?

Cockroaches, spiders, ants and silverfish. Termites, rodents, possums, bees and wasps, bed bugs, fleas and birds are specialist jobs quoted separately.

How often should I have pest control?

Once a year is enough for most Melbourne homes. Homes with heavy cockroach or spider pressure, or near bushland, may benefit from a second visit.

Do I need to leave the house?

Usually not for long. We explain before we start which areas to stay out of and for how long, based on the products used.

What happens at a pest inspection?

We check inside, outside, the sub floor and roof void for signs of pests and entry points, then explain what we found and what we recommend.

Is cheap pest control worth it?

A very cheap job often means a quick outdoor spray only. Ask what is included: inside treatment, roof void, perimeter and a written job record make the difference.
