• Targeted chemical treatments using low-toxicity, professional-grade products
• Physical exclusion and proofing to prevent pest entry
• Mechanical controls such as traps and monitoring stations
• Biological controls where appropriate
• Environmental modifications to reduce pest-friendly conditions
• Dust applications for wall voids and roof spaces

• Residual barrier treatments for ongoing protection

Our approach focuses on using the most effective method for each specific pest while minimising environmental impact and prioritising the safety of your family, pets, and property.

The effectiveness duration of pest treatments in Mount Evelyn varies based on several factors:

• General pest treatments typically provide 3-6 months of protection
• External treatments may have reduced longevity during Mount Evelyn’s rainy periods
• Termite barriers can last 5-8 years depending on the product used
• Rodent baiting programs require monthly monitoring for optimal effectiveness
• Possum exclusion works provide permanent solutions when properly maintained

Mount Evelyn’s unique microclimate, with its higher rainfall and proximity to bushland, can influence treatment longevity. Our technicians account for these local conditions when recommending treatment schedules. We also offer maintenance programs designed specifically for Mount Evelyn properties to maintain continuous protection against seasonal pest pressures.

Whether you need to vacate your Mount Evelyn property during treatment depends on the type of service being performed:

• For standard general pest treatments, you typically only need to be out of the treated areas for 2-4 hours while surfaces dry
• Flea treatments require vacating the premises for 4-6 hours
• German cockroach gel baiting treatments don’t require you to leave
• Rodent baiting and external treatments generally don’t require evacuation
• Fumigation treatments (rare) would require complete vacation for 24-48 hours

Our technicians will provide specific instructions based on your treatment plan, considering factors such as the presence of children, pets, pregnant women, or individuals with respiratory conditions or chemical sensitivities. We prioritise using low-odour, low-toxicity products whenever possible to minimise disruption to your household.
