If this were my house, what would I do?
It's the question I stop and ask on every job, before anything comes off the ute. The answer decides the treatment.
Where your family lives
Inside, it's non-staining, low-odour products, and only where they're needed. The same call I'd make for my own kids.
The cause, not just the symptom
If sealing a gap or cutting back a climber does more than another spray, that's what you'll hear from us first.
Sometimes the answer is no treatment
If you don't need us, we tell you and leave. I wouldn't pay for a treatment my own house didn't need, either.

Raised on a farm.
Two generations in Perth pest management since 2011, and four before that on the land at Coorow. Our grandfather's rule still runs the business: Do a job right the first time and you will never have to do it again.
Quoted in writing before we start
No call-out fee, no deposit, no surprises on the invoice.
A record of every treatment
Product, rate, areas and re-entry period, kept as WA law requires and given to you.
A promise, not a slogan
If the pest comes back inside the period on your invoice, so do we, at no charge. The terms.
The paperwork nobody else gives you.
Where they got in, what was applied and where, and what to fix so they stay out. It doubles as the record WA regulations require.
Excellent customer service, very knowledgeable and explained thoroughly what he was going to do and what each chemical did. Punctual, happy to discuss your needs and no nasty surprises for price. You get what…

We look before we spray
House, roof void, sub-floor and yard, with photos, and one question: what would we do if it were ours? If you don't need treatment, we say so.

On the spot or within the hour: what, with what, and the re-treatment period. Think it over if you like.
Treatment, then the report
Applied to label, re-entry explained, report by email, and a reminder before the next inspection is due.
Take your time and do it right.
That was the headline over a 1977 interview with our senior advisor, then a young farmer at Coorow. Fifty years on, it is still how we work.
“My father says do a job right first time and you will never have to do it again.”Danny Johns · Elders Weekly, 15 December 1977
Straight answers.
Do I need to leave the house during treatment?
For a standard general pest treatment, no. You and pets stay out of treated areas until surfaces are dry, usually two hours. We tell you the re-entry period for the specific product before we start.
What about kids and pets during treatment?
Every product we use is registered by the APVMA and applied at the label rate. We use non-staining, low-odour formulations indoors and keep people and pets out until the re-entry period has passed. If anyone in the home is pregnant, asthmatic or chemically sensitive, tell us and we adjust the plan.
What if the pests come back?
If the pest on your invoice is still active inside the treated area within the re-treatment period, we come back and re-treat at no charge. Periods are six months for general pest, three months for ants and rodents, 30 days for fleas and wasps. Full terms here.
How much does pest control cost in Perth?
It depends on the pest, the size of the property and how established the problem is. We publish a transparent investment guide so you know the range before you call, and a cost estimator that narrows it to your home, and every quote is itemised.
Are you licensed?
Yes. Every treatment is carried out by, or under the direct supervision of, a technician holding a WA pest management technician's licence under the Health (Pesticides) Regulations 2011, and the technician's name and licence number appear on your treatment record. DJ Pest Pty Ltd is a registered pest management business with the WA Department of Health (registration PMB 3000) under the Health (Pesticides) Regulations 2011.

Couldn’t recommend Dane highly enough! We’d been having an ongoing issue with ants around the house and nothing we tried seemed to keep them away. Dane came out, was incredibly thorough, explained exactly what he was doing and got the problem under control straight away. We’ve noticed such a huge difference since! Professional, reliable and genuinely cares about doing the job properly. Phenomenal service from start to finish and we’ll definitely be using him again!
Thanks Trish! You sure did have an ant problem but I’m glad we found the source. I may have to call in for a haircut soon, I hear you are world class! Until next next time 🕷️🐀🦂🦟🪳
Excellent customer service, very knowledgeable and explained thoroughly what he was going to do and what each chemical did. Punctual, happy to discuss your needs and no nasty surprises for price. You get what you pay for, and this was a service that really was more than I paid for. Highly recommended!!
Scott you are a world class sparky and even better bloke. Appreciate you and your support. Wishing Collingwood Magpies better luck next year!
I can’t recommend DJ Pest highly enough! Response time was excellent, Dane was very friendly and professional and was able to eradicate a persistent ant problem that another pest company hadn’t been able to!
Thanks Liv! You have a beautiful property! I love what you’ve done with your new pool and bbq area! Honoured you chose DJ Pest 🕷️🪳🐜🐀🦟
