Pest control jobs you can request

You can use Knut to request general pest control, rodent control, a termite service, or treatment for wasps or bees. When describing the job, explain what you have noticed and where it is happening. If you are unsure which type of service fits, describe the issue rather than guessing; suitable local tradies can consider the details when quoting. Property managers, real-estate agencies and facilities teams can also use Knut to organise maintenance across many properties. For several locations, make clear which properties need attention and what work is being requested at each one.

How to brief a pest control job

A useful request tells the tradie what needs doing, where the issue is, and when you want the work carried out. Include the affected property or area and describe what you have seen, how often it has occurred, and whether you know what type of pest is involved. Add photos if they help show the problem. Mention any relevant access details or constraints so tradies can assess the scope when preparing a quote. Knut lets you provide the job description once, then sends it to suitable local tradies who cover the area and offer that service.

Costs and Knut's booking fee

There is no charge to request quotes. When you book through Knut, you pay Knut one booking fee: 5% on smaller jobs, tapering to 2.5% on large jobs, and never more than $150.00. You also pay the tradie's quoted price for the work. The tradie keeps 100% of their quoted price, and Knut does not charge them to quote. Compare the quotes you receive and check what work each one covers before booking, so you understand the proposed scope and the separate booking fee.

Choosing and checking a tradie

Knut compares the quotes it receives and recommends the one that best fits the job, on merit. Before choosing, read each quote and check that it addresses the issue and scope you described. Some pest control work needs a licence or registration depending on the work and the state; Knut applies the relevant check from the job scope. If you need clarification, you can message the tradie through Knut. After booking, you can also follow progress in one place.
