Possums in the roof (licensed handlers only)

Possums are protected native animals in Queensland. The Queensland Government suggests finding the entry point, sealing it at night while the possum is out feeding, and putting up a nest box nearby. If that doesn't work, some pest controllers are licensed to use harmless traps. A trapped possum must be released within 25 m of where it was caught. Trapping without the right permit isn't allowed. We only pass possum requests to an operator who says they hold the licence or permit needed. See the FAQ.

Termites in Rockhampton: what the climate means

Rockhampton sits on the Tropic of Capricorn, with hot, humid summers and most of its rain from December to March. Bureau of Meteorology records for Rockhampton Aero average about 803 mm of rain a year. Heat and wet-season moisture suit termites, and CSIRO and Queensland Government advice puts Central Queensland in a high-risk part of the country.

CSIRO says termite risk on the Australian mainland generally increases further north, with the highest risk in the subtropics and tropics, and most states have a moderate to very high risk of attack. The QBCC recommends a termite inspection at least every 12 months, and more often in high-risk areas. CSIRO also recommends inspections at least once a year.

Signs to look for: mud tubes on stumps, slab edges or walls, timber that sounds hollow when tapped, mud packed into joints, and damp or stained areas. If you find termites, don't spray or break into the workings yourself. Leave them for the technician to identify.

Pest control licensing in Queensland

Last updated: 24 October 2026

In Queensland, pest management technicians need a pest management licence from Queensland Health under the Medicines and Poisons Act 2019. The licence lists what the holder is authorised to do, such as urban pests or timber pests. Chemical termite work also needs a Termite Management—Chemical licence from the QBCC.

We only pass your request to an operator who holds the licence the job needs, but always check the licence yourself before work starts.

Does a pest controller need a licence?

The licence lists what the holder is authorised to do, such as urban pests or timber pests. Chemical termite work also needs a Termite Management—Chemical licence from the QBCC.

The pest, how widespread it is, the size and construction of the building, roof and subfloor access, and the treatment method.

Pest control FAQ for Rockhampton

Is Rockhampton Pest Quotes a pest control company?

No. Rockhampton Pest Quotes is a free referral service run by Raf Web Studio. We don't do pest control ourselves. We pass your request to one licensed local pest management operator, who quotes and does the work.

How much does pest control cost in Rockhampton?

It depends on the pest, the size and construction of the property, access to the roof and subfloor, and the treatment used. We don't publish prices. Tell us about your job and a local operator will quote for it.

Who will do the work?

One licensed local pest management operator who services your suburb. They contact you, quote, carry out the inspection or treatment and set their own terms. You only book if the quote suits.

What licence should a pest controller in Rockhampton have?

In Queensland, the technician needs a Queensland Health pest management licence that covers the job (for example urban pests or timber pests). For chemical termite treatment, the QBCC also requires a Termite Management—Chemical licence for work of any value. Ask for both licence numbers before you book.

How often should I get a termite inspection?

The QBCC recommends a termite inspection at least every 12 months, and more often in high-risk areas. CSIRO also recommends inspections at least once a year.

Do I need a pest inspection when buying a home in Rockhampton?

It's strongly advised. A timber pest inspection to AS 4349.3 looks for termites, borers and timber decay, and the things that make an attack more likely. In Queensland, termite inspection reports and advice are covered by QBCC termite management licences, so ask whoever does a pre-purchase timber pest inspection for their QBCC licence number. Book it early, because the time to finish inspections under a contract can be short.

What are the signs of termites?

Mud tubes on stumps, slab edges or walls, timber that sounds hollow when tapped, mud packed into cracks and joints, damp or stained areas, and swarms of winged termites. Don't disturb them. Leave them for the technician to identify.

Can you help with a possum in the roof?

Possums are protected native animals in Queensland. The Queensland Government suggests finding the entry point, sealing it at night while the possum is out feeding, and putting up a nest box nearby. If that doesn't work, some pest controllers are licensed to use harmless traps. A trapped possum must be released within 25 m of where it was caught. Trapping without the right permit isn't allowed. We only pass possum requests to an operator who says they hold the licence or permit needed.

Do I need to leave the house during a treatment?

It depends on the treatment. The technician should tell you which chemicals they use, how they apply them, whether windows need to be closed, what to do about pets, and how long to wait before going back into treated areas. Ask before the job starts.

Which areas do you cover?

We take requests from Rockhampton and nearby areas, including Rockhampton City, Allenstown, Wandal, West Rockhampton, The Range, Depot Hill, Park Avenue, Berserker, Frenchville, Koongal, Lakes Creek, Kawana, Norman Gardens, Parkhurst, Gracemere, Bouldercombe, Alton Downs, Mount Morgan. The operator confirms whether they can service your address.

What should I put in the quote form?

Your suburb, the pest, the type of property and a short description, such as where you've seen activity, whether it's a slab or raised floor, and any earlier termite treatment. You can add a preferred date.

Is the service free?

Yes. Requesting a quote is free and there's no obligation to book. We don't take payments. Any price is agreed directly between you and the operator.
