Pest control in Inner South

Knut is preparing pest control coverage in Inner South. Requests and bookings open at launch.

Pest control jobs you can request

The work you can request includes general pest control, rodent control, termite service, and wasp or bee treatment. When describing the problem, say what you have noticed and which areas of the property are affected. If you are unsure which type of service fits, explain the issue rather than guessing the treatment. A tradie can review the details and quote for work that suits the request. Property managers, real-estate agencies and facilities teams can also use Knut to arrange maintenance across many properties.

How to brief a pest control job

Describe what needs doing, where the issue is, and when you would like the work done. Include the type of pest if you know it, the areas where you have noticed activity, and any relevant details about the property or affected spaces. Photos can help explain what you have seen, if they are useful. If you are requesting work for a managed property, clarify which property the job concerns. Share the job once through Knut; it will be sent 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. Customers pay Knut one booking fee when they book: 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 when you book. Tradies keep 100% of their quoted price, and Knut does not charge them to quote. Knut compares the quotes it receives and recommends the one that best fits the job, on merit. You can review the quote before deciding whether to book.

Choosing and checking a tradie

Review the quotes you receive against the work you described, and check that the proposed service addresses the issue you raised. Ask the tradie to clarify anything you do not understand before booking, including what the quoted work covers. Some jobs in this trade need a licence or registration depending on the work and the state. Knut applies the relevant check from the job scope. Once you book through Knut, you can message the tradie and follow progress in one place.

Knut's booking fee

Requesting quotes is free. When you book, Knut adds one booking fee, shown before you pay, and never more than $150. The provider keeps 100% of their quote.
