# Local Pest Co - Full Markdown Site Map This markdown index is provided for search crawlers, AI agents, and retrieval systems. It lists the canonical pages in `sitemap.xml`. ## About the business - Local Pest Co is owner-operated by Shannon Kitchener (NSW EPA licence 5073077) from Kingscliff, NSW. Shannon does every job himself. - Job size: homes and smaller properties. Shannon does not take on large-scale work such as big commercial sites or multi-building complexes; he refers those to operators he trusts. - Second opinions: homeowners who have been quoted for termite treatment by another company can ask Shannon to inspect first. In one such case the problem turned out not to be termites, and the owner avoided paying for an unneeded treatment. - Contact: 0405 508 035 or Thelocalpestco@bigpond.com. ## About Shannon Kitchener | Local Pest Co. -
