Rats and mice are not only disgusting filthy critters that carry many diseases, they also cause serious damage very quickly. Call us now to rid your home or building of rats and mice.

Possum Removal

Possums can be a real nuisance and cause serious damage inside building roofs and voids. If you suspect you have possums living inside your building you can rely on us to get them out using humane eviction methods.

Spider Control

Spiders lurking around your home can cause your skin to crawl and cause an uneasiness living in your home. We can provide peace of mind ensuring spiders do not give you the creeps with safe household treatments.

Cockroach Control

Cockroach infestations within your home or commercial premises will require a professional pest treatment. German cockroaches can explode into a massive population very quickly.

Ant Control

Ants are an extremely invasive household pest, they work on building their colony 24 hrs a day. If your fed up with having ants crawling all over the place contact us today for a safe and effective ant treatment.

Termite Inspections Melbourne

Most homes in the Melbourne region are at risk of termite attack. Every year, more money is spent on house repairs from damage caused by termites than damage caused by natural disasters.

Flea Control

Fleas are a horrible pest to have in your home, they get into everything, your clothing, bedding, carpets and furniture. They can explode into huge numbers very fast. Contact us for safe and effective flea control.

Wasp Removal

It is strongly recommended that you engage Cannon Pest Management to destroy any wasp nests on your property.

Bird Control

Birds can be a nuisance when they choose to nest or roost in areas around your building. They make a massive mess from their droppings. We can provide solutions to remove and exclude pest birds around your property.

Bed Bug Treatment

The most effective bed bug pesticides are available to commercial pesticide applicators only.

Moth Control

There are several species of moths whose larvae will infest stored foods. Some of these include the Warehouse moth

Home insurance does not include cover for termite damage. Termite surveys by the CSIRO have found that almost 1 in 3 homes in Australia have termite presence. It’s best to be proactive and have an annual Termite Inspection carried out by a qualified technician. Contact us now to book an inspection!

Thank you so much for coming out to have a look at our property today. We now have a much better idea of what’s involved in getting termite protection.
No one else has taken the time to explain what goes on and what you would have to do so for that we are very thankful.

Sean, Avonsleigh

Termite Treatment

Mice, silverfish, cockroaches, wasps, you name it! There is no bug too creepy no rodent too sneaky. Sean has been tending to our KOOKAÏ retail stores for many years now & we are very impressed with his enthusiasm and passion for what he does. Highly recommended for his prompt, reliable & effective pest control.

Commercial Pest Control

I was impressed by Sean’s extensive knowledge of pest control and the thoroughness with which he works. He is fantastic to work with, very attentive and proactive. I was so pleased with the first job, that Sean did for us, that when I lost his details, I determinedly tracked him down, as I did not want to muck around with anyone else. I’d highly recommend Cannon Pest Management to anyone and will continue to use their services in the future.

Ant Treatment

Cannon Pest Management has helped me by keeping my cafe pest free and up to health standards for over two years and still going.
We have never had a pest problem and have had the health department and customers call to award us with their gratitude on our cleanliness and high standards.
One thing I liked was the businesses professionalism and punctuality, as well as down to earth and friendly.
These amazing services has led us to not only use Sean’s business for work purposes, but also now at my home too. I would definitely recommend this business, I know you will be happy with the outcome.

Tahlia, Rocco’s Burger Cafe

Commercial Pest Control

We employed Sean to tackle a huge possum problem. We had possums in our roof and under our house. Sean not only set “one way” exits that rid us of the possums but he fixed the various holes where they were getting in and even erected a fence to stop them getting under our house. Highly recommend!

Giving my first ever Google review to Sean. He is on time, replies message timely and honest. Called Sean for terminate inspection, rodent control and bird control. At first appointment, Sean spent more than two hours cleaning the rubbish left by the birds and installed barriers on a 33 degree humid day. The barriers were matching color to my house's color and the finishing is beautiful. The price is very reasonable. Couldn't not be happier with his services.

Efficient, honest, prompt, reliable, quick to respond, approachable and easy to talk to. Sean is a professional at his work. I am the owner of Chapter Too café in Heathmont and I believe Sean is as professional as they come. On top of the excellent services provided, Sean took the time to give me some free advice regarding pest control management. It's always nice to know that dealing with the business owner directly. I would recommend Cannan pest control without hesitation as I have found his services as I mentioned above in the first line, excellent.

After thorough research, we engaged Sean from Cannon Pest Management to eliminate spiders from our family home. To us, choosing a pest control provider was an important decision because we knew that our property and health could be compromised by pesticides in the wrong hands. With two asthmatic young children, Sean was family (and pet) conscious in his approach, and delivered a quality, affordable and highly competent service. We were provided with clear and detailed information about the products being used, as well as instructions about preparing for, and preserving the life of the treatment. Sean was professional, knowledgeable and flexible in all his dealings with us, and most importantly, it was no time at all before the spiders were dropping like flies. We can’t thank you enough for helping us to keep our family home spider free Sean. See you same time next year!!

First contacted Sean a year ago when needing someone to deal with spiders and cockroaches at our previous house. He impressed me as someone well-experienced and knowledgable, no bull or high pressure sales talk, just down to earth, informative and stating the facts. We were really happy with his work and so even after moving further away from the area to our new house, we didn't hesitate to contact him and use him again - not bothering to contact anyone more local to compare as we know he does a thorough and great job at a competitive price. Hoghly recommended.
