What we treat
Full-scope pest control, built around Sydney's climate
Coastal humidity, older timber housing stock and warm summers make Sydney one of the highest pest-pressure regions in Australia. Every treatment plan is matched to your suburb's risk profile.
Cockroach control
Gel baiting and targeted spraying for German and American cockroaches, with follow-up monitoring included in every plan.
From $220Spider treatment
Perimeter and eave treatment targeting redbacks, huntsman and funnel-web activity around entry points and outdoor living areas.
From $240Ant control
Non-repellent barrier treatments that eliminate colonies at the source rather than scattering nests further into the property.
From $210Rodent management
Roof void and subfloor baiting, entry-point proofing and tamper-resistant external stations for rats and mice.
From $260Commercial & strata
Scheduled compliance programs for cafes, offices and strata buildings, with digital service reports for audits.

Common questions
Pest control, explained plainly
How much does pest control cost in Sydney? +
A general pest treatment for a standard Sydney home typically runs from $220 to $380, depending on property size and pest pressure. Termite inspections are priced separately, usually from $275, and combined pest and termite packages are available at a reduced rate.
How often should I get a termite inspection? +
The Australian Standard AS 3660 recommends an inspection at least once every 12 months for most Sydney properties, and every 6 months in high-risk suburbs near bushland, waterways or older timber housing stock.
Is treatment safe for children and pets? +
Yes. Technicians use APVMA-registered, low-odour formulations applied to targeted areas such as skirting boards, entry points and roof voids. Treated areas are safe to re-enter once the product has dried, typically within one to two hours.
What suburbs do you service? +
ShieldPest services Greater Sydney including the Inner West, Eastern Suburbs, North Shore, Northern Beaches, Western Sydney, Hills District and the Sutherland Shire, with technicians dispatched from three depots.
Do you guarantee your work? +
Every general pest treatment is backed by a 12-month re-treatment guarantee, and termite works are covered by a written warranty of up to 5 years depending on the system installed.
