PRICING
What our service will costs is dependent on a few factors listed below
​
-
Location - the closer our location is to our home base in the Hunter Valley the easier we can provide our services
​
-
Target Pest - Some species are harder to target than others so will cost more or less depending on the difficulty level. Some species such as deer may be able to be harvested so can often offset the costs of control. These operations we often conduct for free if we can harvest the meat from the animals.
​
-
Required Equipment - It generally costs more when more equipment is required to complete the job. Example would be the use of 4x4 side by side vehicle fitted with thermal scanner and a silenced semiautomatic rifle for shooting pigs will be more costly, but also much more effective. than being on foot with a bolt action rifle.
​
-
Time and Duration of Operation - The time of day or night and the duration of the operation (single night or weeks) affects the cost of the job.
​
