In homes and urban environments near Melbourne, the pests are the rodents, birds, insects and other organisms that share the habitat with humans, and that feed on and spoil possessions. Control of these pests is attempted through exclusion, repulsion, physical removal or chemical means. Alternatively, various methods of biological control can be used including sterilisation programmes.
A pest is any living organism, whether animal, plant or fungus, which is invasive or troublesome to plants or animals, human or human concerns, livestock, or human structures. It is a loose concept, as an organism can be a pest in one setting but beneficial, domesticated or acceptable in another.

Wayne PrestonPest-Zap is a great company. Local and reliable. A good price and a great result.
Rosemary DuncanI have had the pleasure of dealing with Pest-Zap. For many years I suffered with reoccurring cockroach and ant infestations. I contracted numerous companies over the years who all seemed more interested in taking my money than solving the problem. None of their treatments were effective and my problem remained unsolved. They were unhelpful when I called back, and insisted I pay for additional treatments at full price regardless of guarantees given to me. I then contacted Douglas from Pest-Zap. He was a pleasure to deal with. He formulated a pest management plan to suit my needs and conducted regular inspections afterwards to ensure the treatment was working. I was also given good advice on hygiene habits and storage and he gave me helpful tips on natural home remedies for controlling pests. I can highly recommend Pest-Zap.
Graham WinkelmanA Pest-Zap technician was on site within two hours of my initial phone inquiry. They resolved my pest problem efficiently and at a good price.
