Rebel Pest Professionals is locally owned and operated, servicing the Hunter Region, including the Upper Hunter Valley Council area for over 25 years.

In the Upper Hunter, we cover the all the key suburbs, but in particular Scone, Aberdeen, Murrurundi, as well as surrounding areas.

We deliver personalised and trustworthy pest control services to homes and businesses across the Upper Hunter Valley area.

Our Key Pest and Termite Control Services

For most homeowners, an annual “pest spray” is enough to keep their homes free from spiders and other pests. However, as some customers suffer from a specific pest infestation, we do offer a range of other specialist pest control services, such as professional spider sprays, European wasp nest treatments and pest control for mice in winter. Many of our customers combine their annual pest control or spider treatment with their annual termite inspection (a must for all homeowners!). This can provide significant savings when compared to booking the services separately.

We also offer a range of commercial pest control services to health care and aged care facilities, schools, cafes, restaurants, hotels, retail, office buildings, real estate and mining.

Termite Inspection Hunter Valley

Being a largely rural area, the Upper Hunter is an area of significant termite activity. One of the main termite species, Coptotermes acinaciformis, can build nests of over 1 million termites and are capable of causing significant damage in a matter of months.

It is therefore a must for all homeowners to take steps to protect their home from termite attack. Annual termite inspections are the minimum action, homeowners should take.

Our comprehensive reports will list termite activity, signs of damage and conditions or building faults that may make a termite attack more likely.

Termite Inspection Hunter Valley

With the generally warm temperatures in the Hunter Valley, termites are active for most of the year, although they do slow down in the coldest months of winter. In addition to annual termite inspections, it is highly recommended to install a termite protection system around buildings – either treating the soil with termiticide or installing a termite monitoring and baiting system.

I wish I could give this company more stars, recently my parents have gone to have a small bathroom renovation done to find our family home was being eaten away by white ants. We had a company come and had no communication, very little information given and paying trades to come back only to find more from lack of communication being cost after cost. An elderly neighbour spoke so highly of this company and the reports they do with just checking her house each year that we decided to give them a call. To say we were impressed is an understatement, We had Matt come out and he spent hours checking the entire house to located exactly where the termites were which just gave my parents so much piece of mind after many tears thinking the whole house would need to be knocked down which would result in them needing to sell as they are getting older too with multiple health issues that just wouldn’t allow for this.. I can’t explain how professional, patient and knowledgeable he was. Forever grateful for your service and businesses like this really deserve such a shout out to know just how great they are!!

Great group, very promptly came out when called and when we needed a fix after finding another pocket of redbacks they came out, cleared them out,and touched up the pest barrier. Couldn't recommend them enough.

the tech who came out to spray my home was amazing. Very nice man who did a great job, was very professional and informative. He also gave me a lot of information around pests and how to keep them away. I did not catch his name but he really represented the company well and is a great asset, the company should be proud to have him on the team! I will definitely be a returning customer for life!

Hunter Valley Climate

The weather in the Upper Hunter Valley is more extreme than the coastal areas, with hotter summer temperatures and colder night time temperatures during winter. 
Although there is less rain than the coast areas, there is still more than enough moisture to ensure there are plentiful pest problems!
In fact, the extreme temperatures can often drive more pests indoors – ants come inside looking for moisture during the summer, and rodents are driven indoor during the colder winter months.

Hunter Valley – Key Pests

Termites should always be the number one concern for homeowners, whether you have timber, brick or even metal framed home. The bottom line is that if there is wood present, termites are always trying to find their way in to get to it!

Spiders can certainly be a problem in the Hunter, especially after a wet spring. Of the flying insects, flies are always a big problem and although at the edge of its range, the dangerous European wasps can also be a problem.

Rodent problems, especially in winter are common. With the wine and agricultural areas in the Hunter, there is generally plenty of food for mice. So when it gets cold, they try come inside to find a warm place to stay

Hunter Valley – Key Facts

1

The Hunter RegionAlthough the local Wonnarua tribe had inhabited the region for some 30,000, it wasn’t until 1797 that it was “discovered” by Europeans. It quickly became a source of timber and coal. An overland route was cut between Sydney and the lower Hunter Valley in 1820.

2

Industries in the Upper Hunter Valley The main industry in the Upper Hunter Valley is the Agriculture, Farming and Fishing sector, being a significant cattle, crop, poultry, pig and sheep producing area. Although the lower Hunter Valley is more well know for it’s vineyards, there are an increasing number of vineyards in the Upper Hunter Valley.

3

The Upper Hunter is renowned for its horse studsThe Upper Hunter Valley is the single largest producer of thoroughbred horses in Australia, second only to Kentucky in the USA, with Scone known as the ‘Horse Capital of Australia’.

4

Although drier than the coastal areas, the climate in the Hunter is still classed as humid sub-tropicalAs it still gets significant rainfall, by virtue of the mountain ranges to the north and west. This makes it one of Australia’s hottest and wettest wine regions. It also makes it an ideal place for all sorts of pests!
