If you’ve noticed ants in the kitchen, spider webs in the corners, or cockroaches running across the floor at night, you’re not alone. Adelaide homes are constantly under threat from common household pests—especially in warmer months.
That’s why a regular general pest spray every 6 to 12 months is one of the smartest things you can do to protect your home and your peace of mind.
Whether it’s black ants in the pantry, redbacks in the garden, or roaches sneaking in under the door, MD Pest Control is here to help you entertain your guests—not your pests.

A one-off treatment can knock pests back, but without regular maintenance, they’ll return. That’s why most Adelaide homeowners benefit from a general spray every 6 to 12 months, depending on the location and layout of the home.
