Very happy with the service we received from Robert and Rockypest! Inspection was arranged very quickly and the report was sent to us day of. Texted Rob with some questions and he called immediately and explained everything to me. Professional, prompt, honest and reliable. We would not hesitate to call them again when we buy our next property 😊

We have used Rocky Pest previously and found them to be very good They have done termite and general pest treatments at our home but what impressed me was the detailed report provided following the termite treatment Today we have had them back to do another general pest treatment after having had some carpet moths in the house from a woolen rug I never heard of these pests before but Rocky Pest have dealt with them as a part of the general treatment

We had Eddie out to complete a pest spray on our property and he went above and beyond to help us. I wasn’t home at the time and he found keys and helped sort cats so they were secure for the duration of the spray due to me not being home. Nothing was too much trouble and I’m so impressed. Thanks so much, see you for the next spray when we’re due 🙂

“ I contacted the team at Rockypest after finding evidence of termite infestation in our home. An inspection was promptly arranged and when completed by Rob a Director of Rockypest, confirmed it. Rob clearly explained what needed to be done to eliminate the termites and safeguard our home from future infestation. A comprehensive written report was provided and we chose to have the treatment Rob recommended. The treatment was carried out by Rob and his son Chase both of whom worked a very hard and long day to complete the work. Rob has just completed a follow up inspection and confirmed the elimination of the termites. As a Rockingham resident I always try to find local businesses when I need professional work done in and around our home. I have no hesitation in recommending Rob and his team for their professional, efficient and thorough approach to dealing with Pest Control. 5 stars.”

Wouldn’t recommend… for $275 very unimpressed… I was given no information regarding the process, other than to not be in the house for 4hrs post spray. I came home 7hrs post spray and all the spiders were alive and agitated. I had to arrange somewhere else to sleep and this was very distressing… after leaving multiple calls an a email, I wasn’t contacted for another 48hrs… It has now been 2 weeks and the spiders are still alive…. I don’t think it’s worth them coming back, as they didn’t die the first time… now I just have spiders and poison to clean up…

We recently engaged RockyPest for a pre-purchase timber pest inspection and were very satisfied with the service provided. The inspection was thorough, the communication was clear, and the report was delivered promptly. While there was a small miscommunication involving a third-party building inspection, the way it was handled by the director, Rebecca, truly stood out. She responded with honesty, professionalism, and integrity—taking full accountability and helping to resolve the matter amicably. It’s clear that RockyPest genuinely values their clients and operates with transparency and care. We will gladly consider them again for any future pest control needs across Perth and recommend them to others looking for a reliable service. — Raiden, on behalf of RR Professional Services

I recently had Rockypest Control come out to my home, and I couldn’t be happier with their service. The team was professional, punctual, and thorough in treating my property. They took the time to explain the process and provided great advice for keeping pests under control. I really appreciate their attention to detail and friendly service. Highly recommend them to anyone needing reliable pest control!

Professional Termite Treatment in Perth

Termites cause over $1.5 billion in property damage across Australia every year – and Perth homeowners are at particularly high risk. Western Australia is home to aggressive subterranean species including Coptotermes acinaciformis and Schedorhinotermes intermedius, which can eat through a home’s structural timber in as little as three months without any visible warning.

Unlike ants, termites don’t just invade your kitchen – they silently destroy the structural integrity of your home from the inside out. By the time most homeowners notice the damage, repair costs can run into the tens of thousands. A professional termite inspection is the only reliable way to catch an infestation early.

Rockypest has been protecting Perth homes from termites for over two decades. We’re fully licensed, comply with Australian Standard AS 3660.2-2000, and service all areas from Mandurah and Rockingham to Fremantle, Baldivis, Kwinana and across the metropolitan area.

Termite Treatment Options in Perth

The treatment depends on the size and nature of the infestation. The longer the pest problem continues, the higher the cost of termite treatment to you. We recommend getting us in as soon as you feel you have a problem.

We also offer an affordable annual check so that you can nip infestations in the bud.

Treatment solutions fall into one of two primary categories:

  • Creating a chemical barrier to protect the building       
  • Baiting to eradicate the colony

Chemical Barriers

Chemical barriers can be highly effective if you don’t have a problem already. This technique works on a prevention-is-better-than-cure strategy. It’s effective but has limitations.

If, for example, you’ve already got termites, all you’re doing is trapping them in the home.

Another concern is that the chemical barrier can’t cover all routes of ingress. A shrub planted too near the house could provide the insects with an entry point, for example.

Chemical barriers are highly effective when used in conjunction with baiting.

Baiting

This technique requires a little more effort. The technician comes in and determines where the main colonies are. They’ll then install a bait box at a convenient location for the termites. About once a month or so, they’ll come back to check the traps and add more bait. 

The bait draws the colony out of hiding and gives them something else to eat. The termites are then easily removed. It takes around about three months, but it’s a permanent solution.

Not sure which option suits your home?

Option 1: Repellent Chemical Barrier 

Rockypest will install a protective zone using a Repellent Chemical (bifenthrin active ingredient) around the exterior of your Home in accordance with AS 3660.2-2000 and the chemical manufacturer’s label.

This would involve either trenching to a depth of 80mm below the top of the footing or drilling 10mm holes at distances no greater than 200mm apart in concrete, brick or tiled areas and injecting emulsion into these holes.

The protective zone, if undisturbed and continuous, will provide eight (5) years of protection according to the product manufacturer’s label.

We can not give prices without seeing the property in person. Call the office to arrange a time.

Comes with 12 Months free Service Period with option to renew every 12 months with an annual Termite Inspection up to 5 years (Must be carried out by Rockypest Pty Ltd)

Option 2: Non-Repellent Chemical Barrier 

Rockypest will install a protective zone using a Non-Repellent Chemical (fipronil active ingredient) around the exterior of your Home in accordance with AS 3660.2-2000 and the chemical manufacturer’s label.

This would involve either trenching to a depth of 80mm below the top of the footing or drilling 10mm holes at distances no greater than 200mm apart in concrete, brick or tiled areas and injecting emulsion into these holes.

The protective zone, if undisturbed and continuous, will provide eight (8) years of protection according to the product manufacturer’s label.

Comes with 12 Months free Service Period with option to renew every 12 months with an annual Termite Inspection up to 8 years (Must be carried out by Rockypest Pty Ltd)

Option 3: Non-chemical Termite Interception and Monitoring System

Rockypest will install a Termite Interception and Monitoring System around the perimeter of your home and within your garden.  Approximately 25 monitoring stations will need to be installed.

Some stations will be required to be installed beneath paved areas out of sight.  To do this, we may need to drill lifting holes within one paving brick every 3 metres or core holes within the pavers.  Additionally, should we have to core holes within concrete path or driveway areas.

These monitoring stations would be inspected every six – eight weeks at a mutually agreeable time for termite activity during the first year.  Subsequent years would have inspections carried out on a quarterly basis.  On discovery of any termite activity we’ll treat the activity within the stations free of charge.

The investment required for this termite management system as stated in this option for the first twelve months. This includes placement of all monitoring stations including above ground stations placed directly over where termite activity is and all required bait.

We can not give prices without seeing the property in person, call the office to arrange a time.


Warning Signs of Termites in Your Perth Home

Perth’s warm, humid climate makes it one of Australia’s highest-risk areas for termite activity — particularly subterranean species like Coptotermes acinaciformis, the most destructive termite in WA. Here are the key signs to look for:

🪵

Hollow-sounding timber

Tap wooden door frames, skirting boards or flooring — a dull thud instead of a solid knock is a red flag.

🪜

Mud tubes on walls

Subterranean termites build pencil-wide mud shelter tubes along foundations, walls and pipes to travel undetected.

🚪

Stiff Doors & Windows

Termite damage causes timber to swell. Doors and windows that suddenly become hard to open can be an early sign.

🐜

Discarded Wings

Flying termites (alates) shed their wings after swarming. Finding small piles of wings near light sources or window sills is a warning sign.

🔌

Earthy Deposits Near Power Points

Mud deposits around power points and light switches are a tell-tale sign of termite activity inside your walls.

🖌️

Blistering or Peeling Paint

Paint that looks water-damaged but there’s been no leak? Termites produce moisture as they work, which causes paint to bubble and crack.

Perth Tip: Termite swarms in Perth most commonly occur in spring (September–November) when temperatures rise. If you see flying insects indoors during this period, call us immediately — swarming indicates an established nearby colony.
