Discover the top 5 most common household pests in Perth, WA and learn how to eliminate them for good—plus expert tips from Nest Free’s licensed pest control team.

The most expensive pest you’ll never hear coming.
Termites cause millions in damage across WA every year. Once they get into your timber structures—walls, floors, beams—it’s often too late. They work silently, 24/7, hidden inside your home.
What works:
We use moisture meters, thermal imaging, and expert inspection to detect them early. Then we eliminate the colony with targeted treatments, and if needed, install barrier systems to protect your entire structure long-term.

Let’s be real—if you’ve seen one, there are more.
German and American cockroaches love warm, damp spots like kitchens, bathrooms, and behind appliances. They carry bacteria, breed fast, and come out when you’re asleep.
What works:
DIY sprays kill a few stragglers. We kill the nest. Targeted gel baiting, residual sprays, and crack-and-crevice treatments get into the places they hide—and wipe them out at the source.

You wipe the trail. They’re back tomorrow. Sound familiar?
Coastal brown ants and black house ants are everywhere in Perth—pantries, paths, even power boxes.
What works:
We bait and kill the colony—not just the ones you see. Our non-repellent baiting systems are designed to be carried deep into the nest, destroying the queen and shutting down the operation completely.

It’s not just the redbacks under the kids’ swing set—it’s the egg sacs in your eaves, huntsmen in the ceiling, and white-tails in the laundry.
What works:
Web removal, perimeter spray, roof void dusting—we treat the hiding spots you never see. We also create a chemical barrier to keep them from coming back.

If you’re hearing scratching in the ceiling at night—it’s not your imagination.
Roof rats and house mice love roof voids, subfloors, and wall cavities. They chew wires, nest in insulation, and leave droppings that carry bacteria.
What works:
We don’t just throw traps around. Our rodent control includes site inspection, baiting, exclusion (entry-point sealing), and full follow-up. No squeaks, no re-infestation.
Why DIY Pest Control Fails
Store-bought sprays don’t hit the root of the problem. Most pests hide, nest, and breed in places you can’t reach. That’s why we always start with a full inspection—so we know exactly what we’re dealing with.
Then we build a custom treatment plan, using safe, proven methods—and back it with a guarantee. Because if pests come back, so do we.
