It depends on whether it is an apartment, a tenancy or a whole building, and you get a fixed price before anything is booked. A one-bedroom unit and a cafe with a commercial kitchen and a grease trap are not remotely the same job, so a published price would be meaningless here. For commercial work the quote also depends on frequency, because a quarterly schedule prices differently to a one-off. Ring 1300 545 489 and describe the space and what you are seeing, or send it through the enquiry form. Quotes are free. For businesses, see commercial pest control for what is included.

Yes, and it will give you relief, but be clear on what it does and does not solve. Almost all housing in Springfield Central is apartments, and German cockroaches move between units through shared walls, service risers and plumbing penetrations, breeding three to four generations a year. Treating one lot while the rest of the building goes untouched means the population refills over the following months. The right answer is to treat your unit now and then raise a building-wide program with your body corporate, which is cheaper per lot than every owner paying separately twice a year forever. We will give you a written figure for the whole building to take to the committee. See the body corporate page.

Yes, that is how most of the commercial work here is done. We attend after hours and on weekends so your doors stay open during trading, and the schedule is set monthly or quarterly and then runs without you having to remember it. You get food-safety compliant documentation the same day, with rodent stations mapped and numbered and cockroach monitors giving you trend data rather than a yes or no. For a food premises that means the paperwork is ready when an auditor or a council environmental health officer asks, not something we have to reconstruct afterwards. Full detail on the commercial pest control page, or ring 1300 545 489.

It depends on your lease and on what the pest is, and we will give you a straight read before you pay for anything. As a general shape: inside a commercial tenancy, day-to-day pest management usually sits with the tenant, while the building structure, the roof space, external areas and anything termite-related usually sits with the landlord or the body corporate. In an apartment the same logic applies, with the lot owner responsible inside and the body corporate responsible for common property. Ring 1300 545 489, tell us what you have found and where, and we will tell you which side of the line it falls on and quote whichever party needs the quote.

Yes, and it is a fair question here, because Springfield Central is genuinely new: the schools opened in 2011, the station in 2013 and the first apartment tower was completed in 2017. Every building has a termite management system to AS 3660.1 with a durable notice recording it. But the National Construction Code states plainly that a system will not stop termite activity occurring on the site, and the QBCC recommends annual inspections. On newer buildings the specific thing we check is whether planter boxes, irrigation and landscaping have been built hard against the slab edge, which bridges the barrier invisibly.

Same day or next day, with after-hours and weekend attendance available for businesses. We are based in and around Ipswich, so Springfield Central, Springfield Lakes, Brookwater and Augustine Heights are all short runs and we are through the town centre regularly. Ring 1300 545 489 and you get the actual next available slot rather than a callback promise. For a food premises with an active cockroach or rodent problem, say so on the call and we will prioritise it, because that is a compliance issue with a clock on it, not just an inconvenience. For scheduled commercial work we set the calendar once and stick to it.

Yes, and with German cockroaches in a unit or a kitchen, spraying is what makes the next treatment harder. Supermarket surface sprays are repellents, so they scatter the population instead of killing it, and the survivors move deeper into wall voids, cool room motors and appliance housings where a spray will never reach them. In a shared building they simply relocate a few metres through a riser and come back. Tell us what you used and where, because it genuinely tells us how far the population has been pushed, then we treat with gel baits and dusts into the harbourage rather than surfaces. That is what the general treatment and the commercial program are built to do.

Twelve months on every general pest treatment, and if the pests we treated for return inside that window we come back and re-treat at no cost. The cover follows the pests named on your certificate, which for a standard job means ants, cockroaches, spiders and silverfish. Termite work, rodent baiting programs and bed bugs are quoted and warranted separately because they run to their own cycles. Two things specific to this area. In an apartment the warranty covers the lot we treated, so cockroaches arriving from an untreated unit are a re-infestation from outside your boundary rather than a treatment failure. And scheduled commercial programs work differently again, on continuous service rather than a warranty period. Everything is written out in the terms and conditions.
