Termite Control and Inspections in St George

By Nick, Active Termite Control, licensed pest controller (NSW licence 5074559), Earlwood. Updated 2 November 2026.

The short answer: I do termite inspections, termite treatment and general pest control across St George, from my base in Earlwood next door. Inspections are from $330 single storey or $350 two storey, with the report written on site. Most chemical barrier and baiting systems come in at around $5,000. General pest is $270 or $300 within 7 km of Earlwood.

Who does termite inspections in St George?

I do. I'm Nick, and I run Active Termite Control out of Earlwood, which borders St George. I've been doing this for over ten years, the business is licensed and insured, and I do the inspections myself.

How much is a termite inspection in St George?

A termite inspection in St George is from $330 for a single storey home and $350 for a two storey home. I check the house with a thermal camera and moisture meter, write the report on site on the AS 4349.3-2010 timber pest form, and hand it to you before I leave.

How much is pest control in St George?

General pest control is $270 for a single storey home and $300 for a two storey home within 7 km of Earlwood, and $50 more each beyond that. The northern half of St George, around Arncliffe, Bexley, Rockdale and Kogarah, is mostly inside 7 km. The southern suburbs along the Georges River, like Oatley, Lugarno, Blakehurst and Sans Souci, are mostly further. I'll confirm the price when you book.

A general treatment covers spiders, large cockroaches and ants, with a 6-month guarantee. More on my pest control page.

What termite treatments do you do in St George?

I install chemical barriers (Termidor), monitoring and baiting systems (Nemesis and Trelona), and, on new builds, TermSeal and Green Zone physical barriers and reticulation. If there are live termites, the colony gets baited first.

How I decide between a barrier and monitoring: chemical barrier or monitoring system. All the options: termite barriers.

Not sure what you've found?

Send me a photo for a likely answer. Only an inspection can tell you whether a house has termites.

Book an inspection

Call me or book a termite inspection. Give me the suburb and whether it's single or two storey.

Only in St George

A barrier I look after. One of my chemical treated zones in Bexley North had its annual check in November 2025. It came up clear of termites; the advice was about the yard, not the house.

Where else I've been. Timber pest inspections in Penshurst (September 2026, plus a visual inspection in November 2025), Peakhurst (July 2026), Bardwell Valley (May 2026), Kingsgrove (April 2026), Bardwell Park (January and April 2026) and Arncliffe (September 2025).

What "St George" covers. All of Georges River Council plus the former Rockdale City part of Bayside Council, bounded by Salt Pan Creek, the Georges River, Botany Bay and Wolli Creek (Wikipedia). Georges River Council was formed on 12 May 2016 from the Hurstville and Kogarah councils (Wikipedia).
