Since 2003, Universal Pest Control has been protecting homes and businesses across Newcastle, the Hunter and Central Coast. Over 20 years, we've built deep knowledge of local pest behaviour, construction styles, and the seasonal pressures that drive infestations in our region.

Built on local trust

We started as a small family-focused operation and have grown into one of the region's most relied-upon pest control providers. Thousands of homeowners, property managers, and businesses have trusted us with their pest problems — and many of them have stayed with us for years through our annual pest management plans.

Experience that matters

Pest control isn't just about applying chemicals. It's about knowing where pests hide, how they enter, and how to stop them coming back. Two decades of field experience means we've seen every kind of infestation our region throws up — from coastal termite colonies to restaurant German cockroach outbreaks — and we know what works.

A track record you can rely on

Our long history in the region is your assurance. We're not a fly-by-night operator — we're here for the long haul, and our reputation depends on every job we do. When you call Universal, you're getting the benefit of 20+ years of hands-on, local pest management expertise.
