Millipedes
Professional targeted millipede pest control for Perth homes and properties. We identify the affected areas and provide the appropriate treatment to help control millipede activity around your property.
Harmless, but a major nuisance
Portuguese millipedes are common around Perth, particularly during periods of wet weather. They normally live outdoors in damp areas containing leaf litter, mulch and other organic material, but can enter homes in large numbers. While they are not considered harmful to people or animals, they can become a frustrating nuisance around residential properties.
Why They're Around
Millipedes become more active in damp conditions and may move towards homes where moisture, shelter and night-time lighting are present.
Where do they come from?
They commonly live outdoors in damp, shaded areas containing leaf litter, mulch, compost, decaying wood and other organic garden material.

We inspect the affected areas, identify the pest activity and provide a targeted treatment based on the conditions found at the property.
How can i help prevent them?
Reduce excessive leaf litter and mulch around the home, remove decaying vegetation, limit unnecessary night lighting and seal gaps around possible entry points.
Are they dangerous?
Portuguese millipedes are generally a nuisance rather than a dangerous pest. Their main problem is the large numbers that can gather around and enter homes.
