My Pest Control Brisbane offers a wide range of tailored termite and pest management solutions.
We use the latest methods and techniques to provide you with safe, effective and environmentally friendly solutions.
We hold full Queensland Building Services Authority (BSA) licensing, Queensland Health Pest Management Technician Licensing and General and Public Liability and Professional Indemnity Insurance.
Our goal is to solve your pest management problem while minimizing the risks to you, your family and the environment.
We subscribe to the integrated pest management (IPM) approach to pest control
There are three main elements to this approach:
1. Cultural Control
2. Physical Control
3. Chemical Control
The first thing we do is conduct an inspection of the site in order to determine the pest(s) causing your problem, the extent of the infestation, and the reasons for the problem.
We use this information, along with information you provide us, to formulate a pest management plan to solve your problem
We only use the highest quality branded termiticides and pesticides. They are odourless and you will not have to vacate your property for days waiting for the smell to go away.
Prevention is better than cure where termites are concerned.
1 in every 3 homes in Australia is attacked by termites at some stage in its economic life. And latest figures indicate that the annual cost of termite damage now exceeds $1 billion dollars! This is greater than floods, fire and storms put together.
It should be noted that household insurance does not cover the costs of this damage.
In severe cases it can take as little as 3 months for a colony to severely damage the timber in a home.
Australia’s subterranean termites are the most destructive timber pests in the world and include:
Coptotermes acinaciformis
Schedorhinotermes
Mastotermes darwiniensis

Fleas are small parasitic insects that rely on blood for their nutrition, but can survive for several months without it.
There are over 70 species of fleas in Australia.
They prefer warm and humid climates and typically become a serious pest in the summer months.
A Flea Control program will include:
Internally-treat harbourages such as carpets and those areas where pets rest or sleep with a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide spray containing an insect growth regulator.
Externally-treat all external areas such as subfloors, gardens, lawns, verandahs, window frames, eaves, patios, garages, pet areas etc.
Silverfish prefer damp, moderate temperature places such as basements, laundry rooms and under sinks.
They will almost anything, such as, dried beef, flour, starch, paper, gum, glue, cotton, linen, rayon, silk, sugar, molds, breakfast cereals, wall paper paste, books and papers.
Wasps are most active in the warmer summer months.
Take care with open soft drink cans, especially during summer. Wasps love sweet liquid and this may lead to stinging of the mouth or throat with potentially serious consequences including respiratory obstruction.
Never approach a wasp nest, as they are more likely to be aggressive when defending the nest.
A Wasp nest eradication will include:
A liquid spray to nest
A dusting to nest
