Why Adelaide homeowners trust us
Not every pest problem has a neat name. Something is biting the kids' ankles, there are small holes appearing in a wool rug, or silverfish keep turning up in the linen cupboard. These are the jobs our general pest treatment exists for.
It covers fleas, carpet and pantry beetles, silverfish, bed bugs and the general crawling insects that get into a home. Our five specialist treatments — spiders, ants, cockroaches, rodents and termites — sit separately because each needs different products and a different method.
General pest treatment starts from $260 with the price confirmed before we book. We are a local family-owned business based in Seaford, serving homes across Adelaide's southern suburbs, with same-day service sometimes available — please call to check.
How a General Pest Treatment Works
Identify what is actually there, treat where it breeds, and be straight with you about what a general visit will not fix.
Identify What You Actually Have
Different pests need different treatments, and the insect described on the phone is frequently not the one we find. Carpet beetle larvae get mistaken for bed bugs, and fleas for mites. We identify the species first so the treatment matches the problem.
Treat the Harbourage, Not the Sighting
Fleas breed in carpet fibres and pet bedding, carpet beetles in wardrobes and under furniture edges, silverfish in cupboards and roof voids. We treat where they are breeding rather than where you happened to notice one.
Interior and Exterior Coverage
The treatment covers internal harbourage points plus an external perimeter band, so the insects already inside are dealt with and the route in is treated at the same time.
Honest Advice About What Is Not Covered
Some problems genuinely need more than a general visit — a heavy bed bug infestation being the usual example. If that is what you have, we say so and quote it properly rather than sell you a treatment that will not hold.

What the General Treatment Covers
Four problems make up most of what we are called out for under this treatment.
Fleas
Bites around ankles and lower legs, usually worst near carpeted areas and pet bedding. Eggs and larvae sit deep in carpet fibres, which is why treating the animal alone never clears it.
Carpet & Pantry Beetles
Small holes in wool rugs, clothing or upholstery, or tiny beetles in stored flour and grain. The larvae do the damage, working out of sight under furniture and at the back of cupboards.
Silverfish
Found in linen cupboards, bookshelves, roof voids and around skirting. They feed on paper, starch and natural fibres, and they favour the humid spots older southern-suburbs homes tend to have.
Bed Bugs — Light Activity
Early or light activity is covered by the general treatment. A heavy, established infestation needs an intensive repeated program instead — we will inspect, tell you which you have, and quote it properly.
We haven't seen an ant in 2 years. Before they even finish spraying, you can see the results.
