A general pest control visit suits homes in the Western Suburbs that are seeing a bit of everything. Cockroaches under the sink, ants in the pantry and spiders in the window frames can all be handled in the one trip. It saves booking a new visit each time another pest turns up, and it lets the crew look over the whole property instead of one room at a time.
When you call, we ask what you have spotted and where, plus a few things about the home. Is it a cottage with a subfloor, a brick veneer house with a big yard, or an apartment in a shared block? Is there a shed, a woodpile or a roof space you can reach? Those details shape the job and the price. You hear the upfront price on the call, and if it suits, we book an independent crew that works nearby.
- Indoor treatment of kitchens, bathrooms and laundries for cockroaches
- Spraying around eaves, window frames, fences and sheds for spiders
- Ant treatment along paths, slab edges and door frames
- Dusting of the roof space where the crew can reach it
- A look around the yard to point out what might be drawing pests in
Before the visit, clear the benches and the cupboard under the sink, and move pet bowls out of the way. Keep children and pets out of treated rooms until the crew says surfaces are dry. If anyone becomes unwell, call 000 in an emergency or ring the Poisons Information Centre on 13 11 26.
Many households book a general treatment once a year, often in spring as the weather warms up. Homes near the Maribyrnong River or Stony Creek sometimes add an autumn visit when rodents start moving indoors. Call 03 7053 9832 to get a price and a time for your home in the Western Suburbs.
