⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I highly recommend Total Care Pest Control. We have been using their services for the last 3–4 years, and their service has always been excellent.

They are very reliable and can also accommodate urgent jobs. They are flexible with timing and will schedule the service according to your availability, including early-morning appointments. I have used them for both rat and cockroach problems, especially German cockroaches.

What really impressed me was their pricing. Other companies were quoting around $1,600 for the job, while Total Care Pest Control provided the same service at a very reasonable price. They are professional, cooperative, and genuinely care about helping their customers.

If you need pest control for your home or restaurant, I would definitely recommend Total Care Pest Control. Great service, reasonable prices, and very reliable!

Thank you, Total Care Pest Control! 🙏

Where Pest Proofing Can Make A Practical Difference

Every property has different access points and environmental conditions. Our recommendations focus on areas that may create opportunities for pest entry or harbourage.

01

Doors & Entryways

Gaps around doors, frames and entry points can be reviewed for potential pest access.

02

Windows & Screens

Damaged seals, gaps and openings around windows may provide routes for insects and other pests.

03

Service Openings

Utility and service penetrations can be assessed where they create possible access into the building.

04

Roof & Wall Areas

Rooflines, wall penetrations and external building interfaces can be reviewed for possible pest access.

05

Moisture-Prone Areas

Damp areas may contribute to conditions that support certain pest activity.

06

Harbourage Areas

Cluttered or sheltered areas can be reviewed for conditions that may provide pest harbourage.

Proofing works alongside pest management. Addressing potential access and harbourage points can help support a broader preventative pest management approach.

Pest Proofing FAQs

Everything You Need to Know About Pest Proofing Recommendations

Find answers to common questions about pest-proofing your property, exclusion work and preventative maintenance for Melbourne homes and businesses.

Pest proofing is the process of sealing entry points and removing conditions that attract pests, such as gaps, cracks, moisture and clutter, so your property is naturally harder for pests to access and settle in.
We assess doors, windows, weep holes, roofline gaps, vents, plumbing penetrations and subfloor access points, as these are the most common entry routes for rodents, insects and other pests.
No. Pest proofing reduces the risk of new activity but works best alongside regular inspections, monitoring or treatment, especially for pests like termites that can enter through the soil.
Depending on the entry point, we use door seals, mesh screens, expanding foam, weatherproof sealants and steel wool, chosen to withstand weather and prevent pests from chewing or forcing their way through.
Yes. Moisture is a major pest attractant, so recommendations often include improving subfloor ventilation, fixing leaks and correcting drainage alongside physical sealing work.
Yes. You'll receive a written report with photos highlighting each vulnerable area, the recommended fix, and which items can be actioned by our team versus a builder or handyman.
We recommend reviewing seals and exclusion points annually, or after renovations, storms or landscaping changes, since new gaps and access points can appear as a property ages or changes over time.
