Report
We have been using Denis for our home pest control for over a decade. On our most recent inspection, Denis was suprised to find out that the babies were now 14 and 12 years old! If I'm not home, I leave the key out for him. Denis is trustworthy, professional, friendly and reliable. I have recommended him to my neighbors and friends over the years. He is thorough and always discusses his findings once he has finished. Best of all, I don't need to wash the plates, cutlery etc afterwards. It's all safe without any smell whatsoever. Highly recomend RDS Pest Control!

We just used Denis for the first time. He came recommended from the community when I put out a Facebook message asking for recommendations. I got a number of recommendations in return and made the decision on RDS. I received a text reminder the evening before (it was busy season and I'd booked a couple of weeks in advance). Denis was right on time and was both knowledgeable and personable through the treatment. I was working from home at the time, and it was really unobtrusive. Highly recommended, and book in advance as I think RDS will always be in high demand. If you need a pleasant contractor

Denis is a very thorough pest control contractor and also very personable. We feel very confident of Denis's abilities . He has provided us with pest control services for around 10 years and we would not hesitate in recommending Denis to home owners, bodies corporates, commercial premises . It would be very difficult to get better service from another operator.
