Pest Droppings & Identification in Newcastle
Found droppings or pest signs but not sure what pest you have? Correct identification is the first step to effective treatment. Our pest identification service determines what you're dealing with and recommends the right approach.
The Problem
Different pests leave different signs — droppings, gnaw marks, tracks, nests and damage. Misidentifying the pest leads to ineffective treatment. Rodent droppings, cockroach droppings, possum droppings and bird droppings all look different and require different treatments.
Our Solution
We inspect your property, identify pest signs and droppings, determine the pest species, and recommend the right treatment. Our pest identification guide online can help you narrow it down, but a professional inspection confirms the identification.

Pest Droppings & Identification — your questions answered
How can I tell what pest I have from droppings?+

Pest identification is included as part of a treatment inspection. If you just want identification without treatment, we can arrange a site assessment. Call us to discuss your situation.
