Why it matters
Pests are more than a nuisance
Left alone, the common Brisbane pests do real damage, to your property, your health, and, for a business, your reputation. Early treatment is almost always cheaper than the repair.
- Termites cause hidden structural damage to timber, often before there is a visible sign
- Rodents chew wiring and insulation and contaminate food and surfaces
- Cockroaches and ants spread through kitchens fast and carry bacteria onto food areas
- Spiders and wasps gather around eaves and entries where families spend time
- Mosquitoes breed in standing water and make the yard unusable through summer
- Commercial pests put food-safety compliance and customer trust at risk
Bruin treats the cause, not just the symptom. We identify the pest, deal with the source, and show you the small changes that keep it from coming back, for homes and businesses across North Brisbane.
Why Bruin
Why North Brisbane households choose Bruin
We are a family-owned Brisbane team, and we treat the cause rather than the symptom. That means finding where the pests are coming from, dealing with the source, and showing you the small changes that keep them from coming back.
The work runs from a single ant trail in the kitchen to a full termite management plan on an older Queenslander. Homes, rentals, and commercial sites all get the same careful approach and honest advice about what actually needs doing.
Every treatment is carried out by a licensed, accredited technician using systems we can stand behind. General pest packages include a free service period, so if the treated pests return within that window we come back at no extra charge.

General pest treatments
In focus
The work most Brisbane homes ask us about
01
Termite inspection and management
Termites reach roughly one in five Australian homes, and Brisbane's warm climate suits them. We inspect to AS 3660, then protect your home with an accredited system: Trelona ATBS baiting, or a Termidor treated zone. You get a written report and a plan, not a scare and a hard sell.
02
General pest control
One visit covers the ants, cockroaches, spiders, and silverfish that most Brisbane homes deal with through the warmer months. Treatments start from $180 and include a free service period, so the treated pests are covered if they return. We work inside, outside, and around the subfloor and exterior perimeter.
03
Commercial pest management
Cafes, offices, warehouses, and rental portfolios need pest control that protects both people and reputation. We treat discreetly, work around your trading hours, and keep the records you need for food-safety and hygiene audits. One point of contact looks after every site on your books.

What locals say
Brisbane households trust Bruin
Cody was very efficient, professional and transparent. Very grateful to have him come out and help us out! Best of luck with your ventures
Cody was great at communicating let know when he going to arrive and was on time. He and Tom did a very through job and went above and beyond. They both explained what they were doing every time I asked. Cody fixed a minor drainage issue while on site. I will have no hesitation recommending Bruin to anyone. I look forward to see them in a years time.
A fantastic service completed by Cody and Tom from Bruin Pest Management. Very friendly staff who were punctual, professional and went above what was expected to get the job done. Many thanks
Great service from start to finish! They were able to squeeze me in quickly instead of making me wait for an appointment, which I really appreciated. The technician was friendly, professional and explained everything clearly. Highly recommend!
Can highly recommend Cody and the team. Great communication, speedy service, and minimal disruption. They were also very flexible when we had to reschedule our initial appointment.
Great service, the website is very easy to book in what you need and is user friendly. Very professional and good pricing. I highly recommend using these guys
Awesome professional work completed by Nat as a representative of Bruin Pest Management. Also very polite. I noticed the whole set up with Ute and back canopy neatly stacked all the equipment inside and safe.
Friendly. Professional. Helpful advice. Prompt. Recommended.
Top service from these guys, reliable, fast and do the perfect job. Onya boys.
Thanks to Tom, great job, highly recommend.
Andy completed a pest inspection at our property in Brisbane and his knowledge is second to none. He is very friendly and genuine and provided a great service. At the end of the pest inspection, he showed us through his findings and talked through different pest control methods and some things we could do to help lessen the chance of any termites finding the property attractive.
Myself and my husband highly recommend Andy and Sarah, this is our 2nd time using their pest control services and we have had no problems with pests returning until we were due our next yearly service. They take extreme pride in their work and are very informative on the types of pests and what to use and not use.
Excellent service for a pre purchase pest inspection in Brisbane. Communication was fast and professional. The report was comprehensive, received the day of the inspection, and Andy was available to explain plainly any questions I had. I would definitely use Bruin again in future.
Engaged Bruin to do a pest inspection and they were fantastic. They were available very quickly (next day) and were so easy to deal with. The inspector was professional and very polite. The report was available that day and was easy to understand. Their advice was so helpful, not just for our house purchase, but for dealing with the property into the future.
My husband and I engaged Bruin to complete our pre-purchase pest inspection. We were extremely happy with the service offered by both the office staff and Andy. All were friendly, professional and thorough. Andy met my husband Wayne onsite and explained things clearly. We had our report later the same day. We highly recommend the Bruin team.
Common questions
Pest and termite questions, answered
How much does pest control cost in Brisbane?
A general pest treatment for a standard home starts from $180 and includes our free service period. Smaller jobs, like setting rodent baits or a flea spray, can start as low as our $150 minimum call-out. The exact price is set by the property size, the pests involved, and how established the problem is. Termite work and German cockroach treatments are quoted separately.
Can I treat a termite problem myself?
Disturbing termites yourself usually makes things worse, because the colony moves and the damage keeps going out of sight. Termites need a licensed technician, a proper inspection to AS 3660, and a managed treatment plan using a system like Trelona ATBS or Termidor. A DIY spray at the entry point rarely reaches the nest that is causing the harm.
Is your pest treatment safe for children and pets?
Yes. We use registered products applied by licensed technicians, placed and dosed for a home with kids and pets in mind. We explain any short re-entry time before we treat, tell you which areas to keep clear and for how long, and choose baits or targeted applications over broad spraying wherever the job allows.
Which North Brisbane suburbs do you service?
We work across North Brisbane and the Moreton Bay corridor from our Wavell Heights base, including Chermside, Kedron, Aspley, Carseldine, Bridgeman Downs, Bald Hills, Bracken Ridge, Brighton, Sandgate, Albany Creek, Eatons Hill, North Lakes, Mango Hill, Griffin, and Murrumba Downs. If your suburb is nearby and not listed, call us and we will confirm.
What happens during a termite inspection?
A technician checks the inside, subfloor, and the perimeter of your property, using moisture and movement readings where timber is at risk. We identify any active termites, note conducive conditions, and give you a written report to AS 3660 with clear options. The visit is methodical rather than rushed, because missed activity is what leads to damage.
How often should a Brisbane home be treated for pests?
For general pests, an annual treatment keeps most Brisbane homes protected through the warmer months when ants, cockroaches, and spiders are most active. Termite inspections are recommended at least once a year, and more often for homes near bushland or with a past history of activity. We can set a reminder so a treatment is never left too long.
Are your termite treatments backed by a warranty?
Yes. Accredited systems such as Trelona ATBS may be eligible for manufacturer-backed warranty programs when installed and maintained to the manufacturer's requirements, and we set out the terms in writing before any work begins. General pest packages include a free service period, so if the treated pests return within that window we come back at no extra charge.
Do you treat rental properties and commercial premises?
Yes. We work with homeowners, tenants, property managers, and business owners, and we can liaise with agents and bill the managing party where that suits everyone. For commercial sites we treat discreetly and around your trading hours, and we keep the records you need for food-safety and workplace-hygiene compliance.
