Who we are

Newcastle's own pair of eyes on pests.

Nobbys is the headland that's kept watch over this harbour for generations. We borrowed the idea: know the coast, watch it closely, and catch the trouble before it becomes one.

Built for Newcastle homes.

Pest control isn't the same job everywhere. A dry inland town, a humid coastal city and a bush-fringe suburb each face a different set of pests, at different times of year, getting in through different parts of the house. We built this business around Newcastle's version of that picture — coastal humidity, a lot of old timber housing, and the bush pressing in from the west.

That local focus is the whole point. It's why we can tell you why a Merewether subfloor and a Wallsend back fence need watching for completely different reasons — and why the fix for each is different too.

How we work.

Three things we hold to:

  • Inspect first, always. Nobody can diagnose termites down a phone line, and we won't pretend to. A recommendation only means something after a proper look.
  • Explain it plainly. We'll tell you what we found, what it means, and what the options are — barrier or bait, treat or monitor — in words that make sense.
  • Quote after we've seen it. Every home's different, so we price the job once we understand it. That's why you won't find dollar figures on this site — an honest number needs a real look first.

Pest control is a licensed trade in New South Wales. The treatments are carried out by licensed pest technicians, and timber-pest work is done to the Australian Standards — AS 3660 for termite management and AS 4349.3 for inspections.

The honest version

No scare tactics. Just a clear look.

Pests are stressful enough without a hard sell. We'd rather do the calm, careful thing — inspect the home, tell you straight what's going on, and sort what actually needs sorting. That's the job.
