How Much Does Pest Control Cost in Sydney?

A general pest treatment for a Sydney house starts from $306.90 including GST ($279 plus GST), and apartments and units start from $218.90 including GST ($199 plus GST). The exact price depends on the size of the property, and we confirm it before we book you in. The treatment covers sprays, powders and gels inside and outside, including balconies, gardens, courtyards, terraces, garage and pool, and treats cockroaches, German cockroaches, ants, spiders and general pests.

Quotes are free, and in most cases we can quote over the phone once you describe the property and what you have seen. If you would like a technician to come out and look at a problem before you book a treatment, there can be an inspection fee, so ask about it when you call. Once a treatment is booked, the price we quote is the price you pay, with nothing added on top.

Because it is a different job. A termite inspection is a detailed inspection of the whole property with a written report, priced by property type, and our termite control page has those prices. Treatment is quoted after that inspection, because the price depends on the construction, how far the activity has spread and whether the answer is a chemical soil treatment, a baiting and monitoring system or a physical barrier. Termites cause structural damage, so the work has to be done to the relevant Australian Standard rather than done quickly.

Sometimes, and sometimes it is the most expensive option available. A very low advertised price usually covers an interior spray only, with no roof void, no subfloor and no perimeter treatment, which is where most of the problem actually lives. Before you compare prices, compare what is included, whether the technician is licensed and insured, and what the guarantee covers if the pest comes back. A cheap treatment you have to pay for twice costs more than a thorough one.

Yes. Every price on this page includes GST, so the figure shown is the figure you pay. We also show the ex-GST amount beside it, because businesses claiming the credit need that number. It is the single most common cause of a disagreement over a pest control invoice, so we would rather put both on the page than leave you guessing.

Usually, yes. Regular treatment stops populations rebuilding, so each visit is a maintenance job rather than a rescue. Homes that only call when there is a visible problem tend to pay more over a few years, because by the time a pest is visible the population is already established and takes more time and product to clear. Most Sydney homes do well on an annual treatment, with every six months suiting properties near bushland, water or with plenty of entry points.

Our work is backed by a workmanship guarantee. If the pest is still active within the guarantee period on the treatment we did, we come back and deal with it. Ask us about the specific period when you get your quote, because it varies with the pest and the treatment. Some jobs, particularly bed bugs and German cockroaches, are expected to need a follow-up visit as part of the plan rather than as a failure of the first treatment.

Commercial work is quoted per site rather than off a list, because it depends on floor area, the type of premises, which pests are in scope, how often you need servicing and how much documentation you require. A small cafe on a quarterly program is a very different job to a distribution centre with a mapped rodent station network. PestOz assesses the site and quotes the program up front, with the schedule and inclusions set out so there are no surprise invoices.
