Kitchen Pest Control in Newcastle
The kitchen is the heart of pest activity in most homes — food, water and warmth attract cockroaches, ants, pantry moths and stored product pests. Our kitchen pest treatment targets the specific pests and harbourage zones.
The Problem
Kitchens provide everything pests need — food, water, warmth and harbourage. Cockroaches hide behind appliances, ants trail to food sources, pantry moths infest dry goods, and stored product pests contaminate cereals and grains.
Our Solution
We treat kitchens with gel baits in harbourage zones (behind appliances, under cupboards, hinges), crack-and-crevice treatment, and targeted treatment for pantry pests. We advise on food storage and sanitation to prevent recurrence.

FAQ
Kitchen Pest Control — your questions answered
Is kitchen pest treatment safe for food areas?+
Yes. We use gel baits and targeted crack-and-crevice treatment, not broadcast spraying. We advise on any food preparation precautions and re-entry times. Treatments are safe for food preparation areas when used as directed.
Do I need to empty my kitchen cupboards?+
Not usually for gel bait treatment. We may request access to under-sink areas and behind appliances. For pantry pest treatment, we may ask you to remove infested products before treatment.
How do I prevent kitchen pests coming back?+
Store food in sealed containers, clean spills promptly, fix leaks, take out rubbish regularly, and seal cracks and gaps around the kitchen. An annual general pest treatment keeps kitchen pests under control.
