Matched to what you've seen
Before a pest business can take jobs from Which Pest, we record the jobs it handles, so a termite job never goes to a business that only sprays for spiders.
Only one local pest business gets your number.
We pass your contact details to one local pest business so it can contact you about this job, and nobody else gets them.

Guides
Good to know before anyone calls
Termite or ant?
Winged termites and flying ants swarm at the same time of year. Here's how to tell them apart, and why it matters.


The timber pest inspection
What it covers, what it can't see, and how to fit it in before you sign.
Read the guide RentingEnd of lease pest control
When your lease or pet agreement asks for it, and when it can't, state by state.
Read the guide WildlifePossums and the law
Why a possum can't simply be taken away, and what a pest business can do instead.
Read the guide Before you bookChoosing a pest controller
The licence to look for in your state, and the questions that sort the careful from the quick.

Questions people ask first
Are you pest controllers?
No. Which Pest is a referral service. We pass what you've seen to one local pest business, and they quote, do the work and deal with you directly.
How many businesses get my details?
Only one local pest business gets your number.
I don't know what it is. Can I still ask?
Yes. Tap "Not sure what it is" and tell us what you've noticed: noises at night, droppings, bites, damaged timber or a nest. It goes to a pest business as an inspection to find out.
There's a wasp nest near the back door. What do I do?
Keep children and pets away and don't disturb the nest. If someone stung has trouble breathing, or swelling of the face or throat, call 000. Then tap "A wasp nest": we flag it as urgent for the pest business.
A swarm of bees landed on our fence. Who do I call?
Usually a local beekeeper, not a pest business: a resting swarm is often collected, and it may move on by itself. Don't spray it. If bees are going in and out of a gap in the house, that one is a job, so tap "Bees". Bee swarms.
What about kids and pets during a treatment?
Tell the pest business about children, pets, pregnancy, allergies, fish tanks and veggie gardens before they start. Ask for the full product name and its safety data sheet, and how long before everyone can go back in. Before and after a treatment.
Where can I use Which Pest?
Anywhere in Australia. Tell us your postcode with what you've seen, and we look for a local pest business near you that handles exactly that. Find your city.
Not sure what it is? Start with the signs.
Noises at night, droppings, bites, mud tubes, a nest. Tell us what you've noticed and a local pest business works out the rest.
