About us

Guardian Pest Control was founded in 1986 by Graham Pittock B.Sc. (Chem), after having worked as a concreter noticing the important role pest control played in preventing termites from entering homes and commercial property. 

The business has since expanded and Guardian Pest Control is now the largest pest control company based on the Mornington Peninsula. Our technicians, some of them having been with us since the humble beginnings, are highly experienced and qualified professionals. The team at Guardian have become experts not just in termite prevention but in general pest control – ensuring that we as a team are always using the most advanced, effective and safe techniques.

Graham and his team set out to protect and preserve homes and property in the community and also making sure that Guardian is a part of that community. We support many local clubs and societies including the Dromana Football And Netball club, Boneo Cricket Club, Dromana Secondary College and Mornington Peninsula Beekeepers. When Graham stood for two terms as Mayor of the Mornington Peninsula Shire in 2010-11 and 2015-16 the team carried on with Graham as a Director. 

Through Graham’s leadership, our highly skilled technicians and our experienced and thorough office staff, our team offers a competitive and premium pest management service, ensuring all our techniques remain friendly for the local community and the environment. 

We are a family owned and operated Australian company and, unlike some of our competitors, we intend to stay that way. Our journey has only begun.
