What customers say
Based on genuine customer reviews
A non-profit community organisation using Competitive Pest Services on a quarterly contract to treat its work vehicles, infested with cockroaches through heavy daily use, is among the more distinctive reviews for this Sydney business.
Technician Charlie is named repeatedly for taking time to confirm specific problem areas before starting and for explaining the work afterward. Reviewers who needed a follow-up visit for a heavier infestation describe the company as upfront about needing a second treatment rather than promising a one-visit fix.

What a refreshing company to deal with. Emailed to confirm my booking and on the day I was also sent a text message to let me know when Charlie, the technician was on his way with an ETA. On arrival I was asked about any issues that needed dealing with and I was pleased to see this was taken on board with specific attention paid to my comments. I was also grateful for the advice given to improve things to reduce the chances of pests coming in. In all professional and thorough. I would recommend Competitive Pest Services to all.
I have been a customer for a long time and have seen some highs and lows with the service. Of late, I am glad to say it's all been highs with great service. Huge call out to Charlie, who attended and completed my treatment. He was thorough and took his time to ensure I was happy and explained what he was doing. Big, big thank you and well done. You can send Charlie to my property any time.
...a joy and relief for the excellent work by your company...attentiveness, knowledge and customer service are really tops! ... and of course, no more rats in my roof...thank you.
I have been using Competitive Pest Services for years. They get the job done.
They did a very good job. I had a lot of of cockroaches and I have a very few now they will have to do a follow-up which I understand and I will accept the follow-up when they ring me and ask. I will use this mob again. The pest control they are very good. They turned up on time right on 2 o’clock very appreciated so I hope other people will use them as well. Please do. It was all pet friendly and human friendly stuff they use which was very good 😊 Both the pest controllers were here again today. I’ve done another fantastic job. I would recommend pest control to anybody. As they do very good service and very good on management skills And yes, I will use them again if I need to. I’ll see how I go over the next few days. If I see more then I will ring them and see if I can have another job done as they do very excellent work. I hope more people use you. Kind Regards Shane
Hannah from CPS made a great effort to find someone ~ ie the amazing pro Saied ~ to do a last minute inspection (of my property) whom also did a thorough and honest job too!!! Thank you both so much, ie extremely appreciated (and relieved that all was ok/clear), I felt very reassured by the professionalism of such an experienced pro !!! 🙏
CPS treat our office every 3 months. We are an Aboriginal non-profit community organisation. This time they treated our work vehicles - 4 vans - which unfortunately were infested with German cockroaches & eggs as they are hard working vehicles transporting our community members to programs & events which we run. CPS are very professional, thorough & knowledgeable. They will come back in 2 weeks to treat the vans again, and we are very grateful for their continued support of our organisation & the meaningful work we do.
