Common pest control jobs

The work available through Knut includes general pest control, rodent control, termite services and wasp or bee treatments. The right job type depends on what you have noticed and what you want addressed. If you are unsure which category fits, describe the issue in plain terms rather than trying to diagnose it yourself. Include where you have seen signs of activity and whether it is still happening. A clear description helps tradies understand the request and decide whether the work matches the service they offer. For property managers, real-estate agencies and facilities teams, Knut can also be used to request maintenance across many properties.

How to brief a pest control job

Describe what needs doing, where the issue is, and when you want the work considered. Mention whether the request is for general pest control, rodents, termites, or a wasp or bee treatment if you know. Explain what you have observed and which parts of the property are affected; photos can help show the situation. If you manage more than one property, identify which property each detail relates to. You only need to describe the job once through Knut. The clearer the information, the easier it is for suitable tradies to understand the scope and provide relevant quotes.

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. 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. Before booking, consider the quoted work alongside the job details you provided so you understand what the quote covers.

Choosing and checking a tradie

Compare the quotes you receive against the work you described, and check that each one addresses the same issue and scope. If anything is unclear, use Knut to message the tradie and ask what is included before booking. 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 connects customers with independent local tradies; the tradie provides the quoted work.
