Per Australian Standards (AS 3660.2), you should schedule a comprehensive professional termite inspection at least once every 12 months. However, the ideal frequency for general pest control depends entirely on your property type, industry, and environmental risk factors.

Here is the recommended schedule for effective pest management for homes:

  • Residential properties: Annual inspections and proactive treatments are recommended to maintain a defensive barrier against seasonal spider or cockroach surges and high-risk timber pests.
  • High-risk environments: Homes and businesses located in humid coastal regions or bordering bushland face higher pest pressure and often require semi-annual (6-monthly) inspections.
