Anna Hastie - "Very happy with our recent service from Pest Free Otago - prompt, professional, and great communication. Solved the issue and gave us clear advice on prevention. Would definitely recommend".

Lilly Clague - "We had a mouse problem and Phillip was able to help us. He was extremely responsive, lovely to talk to and good at his job! He was able to get our rodent problem sorted very quickly. Great service, so friendly and so helpful!"

Zenaide Gunn - "Philip recently came out to treat a wasp nest on our property. I am beyond pleased with the service we received from him.

He was very friendly and knowledgeable, took time to assess the situation, identify the exact location of the nest, and the best course of action - it was in a very awkward area, and up high on the side of our house. He also came back to check that his treatment had been effective.

Upfront about costs, which were extremely reasonable, especially considering the followup checks.  I would highly recommend Pest Free Otago to anyone. He is a true professional who takes pride in his work, and it shows in the quality of his service. I am grateful to have found such a reliable and skilled service".

Tracey Norrish - "Phillip provided great service helping us with wasps and borer. He is very knowledgeable, has great communication and is very reliable. Thanks for the help".

Brooke - "I want to thank all of the Pest Free Otago team for aiding my research by providing rat samples . My name is Brooke Whitelaw and I am a postdoctoral researcher at Otago University studying the DNA of invasive rats with the goal to eliminate them from Aotearoa. Our project uses genetic information to discover how Norway and ship rats move across Aotearoa. Understanding movement patterns and genetic diversity within rat populations will allow us to generate a more targeted elimination framework. This is crucial to elimination efforts as repopulation of a previously pest-free area is increasingly becoming an issue.  We will also be looking for genes that can be used as targets for what is termed gene drive technology. This involves manipulating a gene usually affecting fertility; in this way, we can inhibit reproduction leading to the natural death of populations as no future generations are produced. Without the support of Pest Free groups like this, such research would be very difficult and I'm glad that we can work together to protect native wildlife!"

Gavin Evans - "Phil was very easy to deal with, proactive with making sure our pets were safe when spider spraying and good result. Highly recommend".
