Pest control in Sydney CBD and Inner East
Knut is preparing pest control coverage in Sydney CBD and Inner East. Requests and bookings open at launch.
Pest control jobs you can request
The pest control jobs available through Knut include general pest control, rodent control, termite service and wasp or bee treatment. Describe the pest issue you’ve noticed and what you want addressed; the right service can depend on the job. If you’re unsure which job type fits, explain what you’ve seen rather than guessing. Knut sends your request to suitable local tradies who cover the area and offer that service. You can request quotes without charge, then compare the quotes received before deciding whether to book through Knut.
How to brief a pest control job
Give a clear description of what needs doing and where the issue is. Include when you’d like the work done, and add photos if they’re useful for showing what you’ve seen. For a rodent, termite, wasp or bee concern, name the issue if you know it; otherwise, describe the signs or situation without assuming the cause. Useful detail helps suitable tradies understand the scope and prepare a quote. You only need to describe the job once through Knut, then you can message the tradie and follow progress in one place if you book.
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; that price is separate from Knut’s booking fee. Tradies keep 100% of their quoted price, and Knut does not charge them to quote. Compare the quotes you receive and make sure you understand the proposed work and quoted price before booking.
Choosing and checking a tradie
Knut compares the quotes it receives and recommends the one that best fits the job, on merit. Review what each quote covers and consider whether it matches the issue you described. Some pest control jobs need a licence or registration depending on the work and the state. Knut applies the relevant check from the job scope, so the check depends on the work requested. Before booking, clarify any part of the proposed scope or quote that you don’t understand. Once booked 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.
