About Protech Pest Control
A genuinely local Melbourne team protecting homes and businesses since 2001 — led by one of the most experienced names in Australian pest management.
Melbourne’s Trusted Pest Control Company
Serving Melbourne since 2001 · 40+ years of combined team experience
Protech Pest Control has been keeping Melbourne homes and businesses pest-free since 2001. From our base at 4/11 Cooper Street, Campbellfield, our team brings together more than 40 years of combined experience treating every pest the city throws at us — from termites and rodents through to cockroaches, ants, spiders, birds and possums.
We are a genuinely local, independent company — not a national call-centre franchise. That means the technician who answers your call is the same kind of person who turns up at your door: trained, accountable and invested in doing the job properly the first time.
Our work is backed by industry accreditation with HACCP, AEPMA and NPMA, and recognised across the trade — Protech was named Pest Manager of the Year in 2011. Today we hold a rating of 4.8 stars from 384 Google reviews, one of the strongest review records of any independent pest control company in Melbourne.
Meet Our Founder — Muzi Tsolakis
Muzi Tsolakis is a renowned name in the industry, with over 40 years of experience in pest control in and around Melbourne.
He is the official Competency Assessor for Pest Management in Victoria — the person responsible for assessing the quality of pest-control skills and services across the industry. In other words, when Victorian pest technicians are measured against the professional standard, Muzi is one of the people setting and applying that bar.
His expertise has been recognised well beyond the field. Today Tonight featured him as an industry expert, and he has shared his knowledge through industry food-training videos, publications and radio programs. As Protech’s founder he continues to champion innovative, environmentally friendly and effective treatments — the same philosophy that has guided the company since 2001.
That depth of experience and authority sits behind every Protech job. When you book with us, you are drawing on four decades of front-line knowledge and a genuine commitment to doing pest control the right way — the difference between a technician who simply applies a chemical and one who understands the biology, the building and the long-term outcome.
It also shapes how we train. Because our founder helps define what competent pest management looks like in Victoria, those standards flow straight through to the people who attend your property — consistent method, careful application and honest advice on what your home or business actually needs.

Our Technology & Process
Effective pest control starts with finding the problem, not just spraying around it. Every Protech job begins with a thorough inspection using advanced detection tools — including Termatrac termite radar and a digital moisture meter — so we can locate activity and conducive conditions that are easy to miss by eye alone.
From there we build a tailored treatment plan for your property, carry it out with all-natural and targeted treatments wherever possible, keep ongoing documentation of the work, and follow up to make sure the result holds. It is a methodical, evidence-led approach — not a one-size-fits-all spray.
That documentation matters for more than peace of mind. For commercial clients it provides the audit-ready record that HACCP-aligned programs depend on; for homeowners it gives a clear history of what was found, what was treated and what to watch for next.
Giving Back to the Community
We believe a local business should support its local community. Protech proudly partners with Ronald McDonald House Charities (VIC & TAS) through our “One Child, One Technician” commitment.
For every technician we hire, Protech supports families caring for seriously ill children — helping keep them close to the hospital care their child needs. It is a small way of making sure the growth of our team also helps Melbourne families when they need it most.
