Unprofessional Service + Poor Quality Report
First time post review here. I did feel threatening. Therefore, it took me so long to post this review. For safety reason, I have moved to other suburb. Since then, I have changed my credit card and contact details. In order to protect any other potential and innocent customers, I decided to post this review for your decision making.
On 21/03/18, I found a pest control company on the internet called “Proven Pest Control”. Website: www.provenpest.net/. I requested a quote to do the Termite Inspection plus Refill of Termite Reticulation System (...Read more
TermGuard System). The quote was $450 ($150 inspection + $300 chemical refill) in total. I wanted to make sure the service that I am getting is equivalent with the previous service provider. I was trying to get all the details such as chemical used, licence number etc. [name removed] (sales representative) had confirmed that the chemical used is Bifenthrin just a brand difference like Coles vs Worthworth. In order to satisfy my building structure warranty, I need to do the termite inspection every year and refill the reticulation barrier system every 3 years by licence pest control. And I have to do what the licence pest control recommends to do. Otherwise, my building structure would be void of warranty. After two days consideration on 23/03/18, I had decided to make a booking for the service at 3pm on 4/4/18. On 4/4/18, I received a phone call at approximately 11.45am from Proven Pest Control saying the booking had changed to 1pm. I quickly rush home for them. Unfortunately, no one turned up until 3.15pm. I didn’t even receive any apologies when the inspector turn up late since they had been changing the time slot for a few times in a day. The inspector ([name removed]) carried out the inspection and asked me to open the meter box to find out the details of the Termite Reticulation System. Approximately 4pm, [name removed] carried out the chemical refilling work. I witnessed that the chemical spilled all around the footpath next to the building at the second nozzle head. It was quite excessive amount that I was so concerned and asked the chemical was harmful. He said it was not harmful and added it will dry by itself. I was so worried about the spill then I kept asking to do something. He told me to use the hose to clean it up after the work. At around 4.45pm, chemical refill and inspection works were completed. [name removed] said everything was fine as expected. He asked for the payment and said the report will be sent to me in a few days later. I paid full amount $450 by credit card. And he asked me to use my finger to sign on his phone. Within a second, the receipt was sent to my email with my signature attached on their standard receipt template with a lot of term and conditions that was not seen before I signed. After 5 days later on 9/04/18, I received the pest control report. I was shocked with recommendation on the report. Please see the following.Similar opinion? Write a review on ProductReview.com.au!

Awful. Lies and didn’t do what I paid for.
I paid for a full spray of my carpet. They only did the edges. When the bugs came back the receptionist told my rental agent I was the one that only asked them to do the edges! She said they sent the man back out as a goodwill gesture - meanwhile telling me they are sorry they didn’t give me what I paid for. Their notes after both jobs didn’t reflect the truth nor what they told me. They told my agent they only saw bugs under one table leg - total lies! They did a crap job and tried to work their way out of it. DO NOT USE THEM!

No impressed
They treated my mother in laws place 3 months ago and it still has cockroaches running around. Not a very good service. The guy put chemicals all around the house and still couldn't get rid of them. I wouldn't waste my money on this company.

Happy that the fleas are gone
I went on holiday and when I came back there were fleas everywhere.
After the treatment it took about 2 weeks for all the fleas to die
Very good

Useless bunch of so and so's!!! Do not go near this company, This week I've had 6 calls in 4 days.The next time you ring I will have a sports whistle handy and I will blow it into the phone so be prepared. It's your choice. Ring and be deaf or leave me alone!!!
This is the worst pest control company in Australia. I did not listen to the reviews I read and went ahead to use them but learned a big lesson. The spray for the cockroaches did not work and when I called for the second respray oh my the man came to my house and was extremely rude. He ...Read more

Will use again most definitely. Thanks for doing such a great job! They gave helpful information and
offered several different options for treatment and wasn't pushy with the sale.

Brilliant Service!
I had bad German Cockroaches infestation it was embarrassing, annoying and dirty roaches everywhere. After trying a different pest control company , who failed to get rid of them, they came out once and refused to come out again!
I then rang Proven Pest Control and the lady in the office explained that German Cockroach treatments require 2 treatments to fully eradicate them and to break their breeding cycle and most pest control companies don't do it correctly. They gave me a quote which was cheaper than the other guys and it included the...Read more
2nd treatment FREE! They came out and did the treatment and were very thorough. 2 weeks later I saw a HUGE improvement. Their technician then came out again and did the 2nd treatment. 2weeks later all the cockroaches were gone!Similar opinion? Write a review on ProductReview.com.au!
