Concerned about really protecting your family and property?

Before you sign up for a pest inspection or treatment, make sure your pest manager is PestCert accredited.

Three things you should know

One

PestCert accreditation is only for pest managers who have:

  • passed tests of knowledge, skill, experience;and
  • demonstrate the highest standards of care and responsibility.

Two

To remain accredited, PestCert pest managers must prove they are continuing to study and continuing to keep up to date with all the latest pest management technologies.

Three

All PestCert pest managers sign a public, legally binding code of conduct which commits them to:

  • only provide ethical, quality service and professional care;
  • meet higher and more exacting performance standards than those required under legislation;
  • continue professional training and development; and
  • only operate work vehicles and equipment which meet strict, regularly audited safety and performance standards.

So why choose a PestCert accredited pest manager?

We all know professional pest management should be about:

  • caring for the safety,security and health of you and your family, friends, staff and customers; and
  • protecting you and your property from dangerous, disease-carrying, destructive or just plain annoying pests

But is it?

Professional pest management should require advanced knowledge about:

  • pests and their behavior;
  • latest, modern, target-specific technologies to manage and contain pests;and
  • stringent safeguards to protect you, your family and the environment.

But does it?

To provide the safety, security, service and performance you expect and deserve,today's pest managers not only need to be highly trained but also highly skilled in applying their knowledge. They also need to be fully up to date on latest scientific and environmental advances.

But are they?

So how do you know your pest manager has all the knowledge, the skills, the experience? And how do you know he or she is always right up to date? In other words, how do you know your pest manager is a true professional?

In the past, sadly, any operator with basic qualifications could obtain a pest manager's license. Even more sadly, they still can.

Is that good enough?  No!

That's is why we have established PestCert.

As part of PestCert, the best, most dedicated, highly trained and skilled pest managers have set themselves apart from non-accredited operators to help you and other customers:

  • quickly and easily recognise their PestCert commitment to care, safety, and quality of service;
  • feel secure knowing the pest manager you choose to protect you and your property is a dedicated professional, in every way; and
  • know you are getting real value for money, every time, on every job.

Experience the difference yourself!
