Top Tips For Finding The Best Pest Control Experts

December 22, 2021

Have you got an infestation that needs a prompt, effective solution? Perhaps you want some preventative pest measures to reduce the chances of unwelcome visitors in the future.


Whatever your pest control needs may be, it's important to find a suitable company to complete the work correctly and reliably. To aid your search for the best
pest control on the Sunshine Coast, we've put together five key tips for finding the best pest control experts for your needs.

Experienced in Certain Pests

Whilst some pest controllers offer generic services, others will have particular expertise in certain types of pests, such as birds, cockroaches or termites. It makes sense to use a provider that specialises in the type of pest you suspect has invaded your property, or that you wish to prevent from gaining entry.


If you're not sure what type of pest you have (for example, different beetles require varied elimination methods, but the signs of beetle infestation may make it difficult to differentiate), a good pest controller can provide accurate diagnostic services in addition to treatment and prevention.

Focused on Prevention

Contemporary pest control focuses on prevention, in addition to elimination. The thinking behind this is that it's easier to deter pests by making your premises "pest-proof" than it is to eliminate them. Elimination without prevention also means it's likely the pests will just come back once the coast is clear. 


The best pest control experts will offer a range of preventative services, as well as regular inspection schedules to make sure your defences are in order and that there are no early signs that a pest has managed to evade them.

Modern Pest Control Methods

Whilst poison and traps are still used where appropriate, modern methods focus on more than this. Up-to-date pest controllers have a good knowledge of the pest's lifecycle. As a result, they will introduce a range of measures that will provide a permanent solution to elimination and prevent the pest from returning.


Modern solutions are geared to be sustainable, environmentally friendly and safe to use around pets and children. 

Customised Pest Control Solutions

Pests are inventive creatures, which means they can end up in all sorts of locations. In some circumstances, pest controllers will need a creative solution to successfully pest-proof an awkwardly situated property.


This is where experience and a good knowledge of modern techniques can pay dividends, as an expert pest controller can deal effectively with almost any pest problem. 

Discreet Service

Particularly if you own a food & beverage business, or provide some other public-facing service, the last thing you want is your pest problem being widely advertised!


An expert pest controller won't just have excellent pest elimination and prevention skills, they'll also be the sort of person you want to do business with. Dependable, punctual, discreet, honest and affordably priced, your pest control service should put customer care at the heart of what they do.
