Pest Control Solutions for Body Corporates
Suburban Pest Management are leading experts in pest control solutions for body corporates including low to medium density complexes such as townhouses, units, duplexes, gated and over 50’s communities.
We are dedicated to ensuring the comfort and safety of residents and we understand the unique challenges faced in maintaining pest-controlled environments within shared spaces. With our expertise and tailored solutions, we aim to alleviate the burden of pest management while upholding the highest standards of safety and compliance.
Responsibility for Pest Management in Common Property Areas
In body corporate managed sites, the responsibility for pest control on common property falls squarely on the shoulders of the body corporate itself. Shared areas include reception, corridors, gardens, carparks, and recreational facilities. Effective pest control not only enhances the living experience for residents but also protects the integrity of the property and its assets.
Body corporates are also responsible for ensuring that pest control is carried out by a licensed and qualified pest technician.
Individual owners are responsible for pest control within their own properties.
Importance of Maintaining a Safe and Aesthetically Pleasing Site
A pest-controlled environment is not only essential for the well-being of residents but also contributes significantly to the overall appeal and market value of the property. We understand that maintaining a clean, safe, and aesthetically pleasing site is paramount to the satisfaction of residents and the reputation of the body corporate. Our comprehensive pest management solutions are designed to uphold these standards, ensuring a harmonious and enjoyable living environment for all.
We have a commitment to sustainable pest control. We use pesticides which have minimal impact on the environment, and we use safe pest management practices to maintain a safe and hygienic environment for your residents and staff.
We also employ a wide range of non-chemical methods which help with prevention and reduce the need to use pesticides.
Discreet Treatment Times to Minimise Disruption
We recognise the importance of discreet treatments so as not to inconvenience residents, which is why we offer flexible scheduling options. Our trained technicians work swiftly and efficiently to address pest issues while causing minimal disturbance to residents. With our proactive approach, we strive to ensure a seamless experience for all stakeholders involved.

Common Pests We Treat at Body Corporate Managed Sites
Over the many years we have been treating body corporate complexes in South-East Queensland, we’ve collected comprehensive information on pest control. The pests we commonly treat include:
Cockroaches – They can spread disease and can cause diarrhea, allergic reactions, and asthma. That’s some serious stuff. They often live in groups and during the day will hide in boxes, cracks, electronic devices, drains and sewers.
Spiders – Some can jump and bite. Some spiders are more harmful to humans than others; some inject toxins that can be fatal if left untreated. Some have fangs which give a painful sting which can cause local swelling.
Rodents – They destroy property, carry and spread diseases. Brisbane has two common types of pest rats, the Norway rat and the smaller grey or black, Roof Rat.
Ants – Some bite and some bite multiple times. They carry away food scraps. There are thousands of different ant varieties with black ants being the most common. They may seem harmless, but a severe ant infestation can cause property damage.
Termites – They can be an issue in some body corporate managed sites. It all depends on the building design, construction materials, building age, and other internal and external factors including frequency of termite inspections and treatments.

FREQUENTLY ASKED PEST CONTROL QUESTIONS
If you have any questions about pest control, we have provided answers to some frequently asked questions below:
Signs vary depending on the pest, however, the can include sightings, droppings, unusual odours, and damage. If you notice any of these, professional pest control may be needed.
To prevent pests, keep your home clean, store food in sealed containers, eliminate moisture sources, and seal entry points. Regular pest control treatments can provide long-term protection.
Modern pest control treatments use low-toxicity and environmentally friendly products that are safe for humans and pets when applied correctly. At Suburban Pest Management, we take extra precautions to ensure your tenant's safety. Keeping children and pets away from treated areas until they dry is recommended.
Preparing for pest control depends on the treatment. Generally, you should clear clutter, store food, vacuum floors, and move furniture away from walls if necessary. Our team will provide specific instructions based on your pest issue.
The time it takes for pest control to work varies. Some treatments, like cockroach sprays, show results within hours, while others, like termite baiting, can take weeks. Most infestations show a noticeable reduction within days.
Look for a licensed pest control provider with positive reviews, proof of experience, and who can clearly communicate the treatment being performed and service periods. At Suburban Pest Management, we offer safe, effective services performed by fully licensed pest control technicians.
Our plans cover all common areas of the property, including lobbies, car parks, bin rooms, gardens, and hallways. We recommend a regular service program for common areas and we can coordinate optional services for individual lots (apartments).
Our strategy involves treating the entire building as a single ecosystem. By focusing on common areas and entry points, especially bin rooms, we stop pests from moving between units, which is far more effective than treating apartments in isolation.
It is essential due diligence. With three decades of experience protecting properties, we know the cost of an inspection is minimal compared to repairing structural termite damage, a liability often shared by all owners.
We work with the Body Corporate to provide clear, timely notifications. We can supply notices for posting in common areas, detailing the date and scope of the service, ensuring all residents are well-informed.
This requires a coordinated response. We recommend treating the source unit thoroughly as well as adjacent units. We would also identify the conducive conditions contributing to the infestation to prevent future infestations. We would also treat all common areas to contain and eliminate the infestation, and implement a regular treatment program.
We use lockable, tamper-resistant rodent stations. These are securely placed by our certified technicians in discreet locations where they are effective against rodents but inaccessible to children and pets, ensuring the highest level of safety.
