Fact Sheets-PEST Consultants
We have posted some common fact sheets here for your convenience and general information.
Actual identification should always be undertaken by a Professional Pest Management Technician – one with the necessary qualifications and experience within the industry. If a Pest Manager is unable to make a successful pest identification they should have the ability to arrange for a correct third party identification to be undertaken, on your behalf.
If you have any specific pests that you would like included here, please advise us via the ‘Feedback' page and we will endeavour to oblige.
