Radar Pest Control is one bloke from Bli Bli with 10+ years on the Coast, a Termatrac radar in the ute and a simple rule: the person you call is the person who turns up.
The 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 path into pest control began after years working in greenkeeping, where I developed a deep understanding of how pests interact with outdoor environments. That background gives me insights most pest controllers don't have: I understand both indoor and outdoor pest challenges, from the lawn to the roof void.
Being Bli Bli based means I'm not just your pest controller. I'm your neighbour. I know the pest challenges we face here, from the coastal humidity that attracts termites to the seasonal patterns that bring different pests into our homes.
When you call 0401 166 155, you're talking directly to me, not a call centre or a sales team. And when the ute pulls up, you know exactly who's responsible for your pest protection. My reputation depends on every single job, so I never compromise on quality or service.
You'll know the ute when it pulls up, same one on every job.

Credentials
Over a decade protecting Sunshine Coast homes and businesses from pests. I've seen every pest challenge our region faces and know how to solve them effectively.
That covers everything from complex termite barrier installations to emergency pest responses in Buderim, Nambour and surrounding areas.
A unique background in greenkeeping gives me a comprehensive understanding of outdoor pest environments that most pest controllers lack.
It lets me offer specialised lawn and garden pest solutions: identifying breeding areas and running integrated pest management inside and outside your property.
Technology
The radar in our name is more than branding. The Termatrac T3i uses radar to detect termite movement through walls, floors and other structures, without any damage to your property.
The Termatrac T3i on the job: radar detection through the wall, no drilling, no damage.
Unlike traditional methods that rely on visual inspection alone, Termatrac radar technology lets me:
Beyond the radar, I invest in the most advanced pest control equipment available: digital moisture meters for termite habitat assessment, professional-grade treatment equipment for precise application, and environmental monitoring tools for ongoing protection verification.
