Meet Mick – Your Local Sunshine Coast Pest Control Expert
The Radar Pest Control Story
G’day! I’m Mick, the owner and operator of Radar Pest Control. I started this business with a simple mission: to protect Sunshine Coast families from pests using the safest, most effective methods available.
My journey into pest control began after years working in greenkeeping, where I developed a deep understanding of how pests interact with outdoor environments. This unique background gives me insights that most pest controllers don’t have – I understand both indoor and outdoor pest challenges.
What drives me every day is knowing that the families I help can sleep peacefully, knowing their homes are protected by professional termite barrier systems and family-safe treatments.
Being Bli Bli based means I’m not just your pest controller – I’m your neighbour. I understand the unique pest challenges we face here on the Sunshine Coast, from the coastal humidity that attracts termites to the seasonal patterns that bring different pests into our homes.

Advanced Technology for Superior Results
🔬 Termatrac T3i Radar Technology
I use the latest Termatrac T3i radar technology – the most advanced termite detection system available. This revolutionary technology can detect termite movement through walls, floors, and other structures without any damage to your property.
Unlike traditional methods that rely on visual inspection alone, Termatrac radar technology allows me to:
- Locate termite activity before visible damage occurs
- Track termite movement patterns precisely
- Design more effective termite barrier placement
- Monitor treatment effectiveness over time
💡 This technology advantage means more accurate inspections, better treatment placement, and superior long-term protection for your property.
🔧 Latest Equipment & Techniques
Beyond radar technology, I invest in the most advanced pest control equipment available:
- Digital moisture meters for accurate termite habitat assessment
- Thermal imaging cameras for comprehensive property analysis
- Professional-grade treatment equipment for precise application
- Environmental monitoring tools for ongoing protection verification
