After growing up in Tatura on a rural property, Pestology Pest Control owner Damian Doller found a keen interest in all things creepy crawly from a young age.

After studying Natural Resource Management at RMIT, he worked in the pest control industry in Mildura.

However, his interest in natural resource management led to a career back in the Goulburn Valley, managing facilities, native and outdoor spaces and agricultural land.

This year, Damian and his wife Emma decided to take a leap of faith, and Pestology was born.

The business supports clients in the Goulburn Valley and surrounding areas with pest control methods to manage various pests and prevent infestations while enhancing health and safety.

“We aim to ensure local properties and businesses are protected from pests and the damaging effects they can cause,” Damian said.

“We have been overwhelmed with the support we have received from the community, particularly in Tatura, where we live with our young family.

“It’s also been rewarding to partner with local organisations and charities donating our services and having an opportunity to give back to our wonderful community too.”

With the weather warming up, you will see an increase in spider and insect activity.

If you want to discuss treatments for spiders, rodents, cockroaches, bees, wasps, crawling insects, ants, flies, mosquitos, and other pests, phone Damian at 0447 904 465.

Pestology can meet you on-site and tailor treatments or scheduled maintenance programs in commercial, domestic or rural settings.
