Twelve jobs, one standard of care.
Diagnosed first, treated with the right chemistry for the pest and the site, then documented. Every product is APVMA-registered and applied to its label.
Termite inspection
A full AS 4349.3 timber pest inspection with photos, moisture readings and a written report you can act on.
Learn moreTermite treatment
Non-repellent chemical management systems installed to AS 3660.2, or baiting where that suits the site better.
Learn moreGeneral pest treatment
Cockroaches, spiders, silverfish and ants in one internal and external treatment. Six-month re-treatment promise.
Learn moreAnt management
Coastal brown ant super-colonies need slow-acting non-repellents and baits, not a quick spray. We treat the colony.
Learn moreCockroach management
German cockroaches in the kitchen or Australian cockroaches from the garden. Gel baits, IGRs and non-staining products indoors.
Learn moreRodent management
Species identified, entry points found, tamper-resistant stations placed and a sealing plan so they don't come back.
Learn moreSpider management
Redbacks, white-tails and huntsmen. External web-and-harbourage treatment with the internal spray only where it's needed.
Learn moreMosquito management
Breeding-site audit first, then a residual treatment of the shaded harbourages where adults rest. Timed for Perth's warm-season peak.
Learn moreVacate flea treatment
Moving out with a pet? Quoted from the address within the hour, certificate to you and your agent within the hour of treatment.
Learn moreWasp removal
Paper wasp nests under eaves and pergolas found, treated and removed, usually same day. Suspected European wasps are reported to DPIRD.

Our family has been in Perth pest management since 2011. DJ Pest is the second generation, run by a Chartered Accountant, and that shapes how it works: itemised quotes, a chemical application ledger for every job, and a re-treatment promise you can read in full before you book.
Quoted in writing before we start
No call-out fee, no deposit, no surprises on the invoice. Seven-day terms.
A record of every treatment
Product, active constituent, rate, areas treated and re-entry period, kept for three years as WA law requires and given to you.
A promise, not a slogan
If the pest we treated comes back inside the period on your invoice, we come back at no charge. Read the terms.
You get the paperwork nobody else gives you.
After every job you receive a report with three parts: where the pests were getting in, exactly what was applied and where, and what to fix so they stay out. It doubles as the treatment record WA regulations require us to keep.
Sample only. Details vary by job.

We look before we spray
A walk-through of the house, roof void or sub-floor where it's safe, and the yard. Photos of what we find, and a straight answer about whether you need treatment at all.
You get an itemised investment
Written on the spot or sent within the hour. What's being treated, with what, and the re-treatment period that applies. If you'd rather think about it, that's fine.
Treatment, then the report
Products applied to label with re-entry times explained. Your treatment report follows by email, and a reminder before your next inspection is due.
Four generations on the land at Coorow.
Now looking after yours.
Before pest management there was farming. Four generations of our family worked the land at Coorow in the WA wheatbelt, where your word is your handshake and a job is done properly or not at all. That's the standard we brought to Perth, and it's why we treat every house like it's our own.
Country people don't dress a job up. We tell you what we found, what it needs, what it doesn't, and we put it in writing. The way you'd want a neighbour to.
“Price is what you pay. Value is what you receive.”
You're not paying for a spray. You're investing in your biggest asset — and we treat it that way.
What's active right now in the northern suburbs.
Sandy coastal soils, warm summers and mild winters give Perth a predictable pest rhythm. Knowing it means treating at the right time, not after the damage.
Warmer soil brings coastal brown ants and redbacks out. Good time for a perimeter treatment before summer.
Subterranean termites swarm on warm, humid evenings. Sandy northern-suburb soils and garden timber raise the risk.
German and Australian cockroaches follow warmth and food into kitchens as nights cool.
Rats and mice look for warm voids. Sealing entry points now beats baiting later.
Based in Warwick. Fast across the northern corridor.
We deliberately keep the service area tight so response times stay short and we know the suburbs, soils and pests personally. Greenwood, Duncraig, Sorrento, Hillarys, Joondalup, Wanneroo and everything between.
Straight answers.
Do I need to leave the house during treatment?
For a standard general pest treatment, no. You and pets stay out of treated areas until surfaces are dry, usually two hours. We tell you the re-entry period for the specific product before we start.
What about kids and pets during treatment?
Every product we use is registered by the APVMA and applied at the label rate. We use non-staining, low-odour formulations indoors and keep people and pets out until the re-entry period has passed. If anyone in the home is pregnant, asthmatic or chemically sensitive, tell us and we adjust the plan.
What if the pests come back?
If the pest on your invoice is still active inside the treated area within the re-treatment period, we come back and re-treat at no charge. Periods are six months for general pest, three months for ants and rodents, 30 days for fleas and wasps. Full terms here.
How much does pest control cost in Perth?
It depends on the pest, the size of the property and how established the problem is. We publish a transparent investment guide so you know the range before you call, and every quote is itemised.
Are you licensed?
Yes. Every treatment is carried out by, or under the direct supervision of, a technician holding a WA pest management technician's licence under the Health (Pesticides) Regulations 2011, and the technician's name and licence number appear on your treatment record. DJ Pest Pty Ltd is a registered pest management business with the WA Department of Health (registration PMB 3000) under the Health (Pesticides) Regulations 2011.
