Hunter vs PestScan
The PestScan alternative for Australian state pesticide records
PestScan is a European pest control platform with a strong inspection-round and device-scanning workflow. Hunter shares that discipline but records against Australian state rules rather than European ones.
Best for: European pest control businesses running scheduled inspection rounds

The short version
PestScan is clearly built by people who understand inspection rounds — scanning devices at a site and building the record from what you find is exactly the right shape for commercial pest work. It is a European product, though, so the compliance model, the reporting and the support day all follow European requirements. Hunter does the same station-by-station recording, mapped to Australian state rules.

| Device & station scanning | QR bait stations with per-visit readings | A core strength |
| AI agent for quotes & comms | Included | Inspection workflow automation |
| Recurring & maintenance planner | Included | Scheduled inspection rounds |
| Xero & QuickBooks sync | Included | European accounting integrations |
| Starting price | A$199/mo + GST | Quote-based, EUR |
Where PestScan falls short
PestScan’s records are shaped for European requirements. There is no Australian per-state pesticide record schema, no AU technician licence register and no AS 3660 or AS 4349.3 document set for timber pest work, which is the reporting an Australian operator is judged on.
At the time of writing it is sold and supported from Europe and priced in euros, and its accounting integrations follow that market rather than Xero or MYOB — so your exchange rate moves your costs and your support day sits well out of step with your crew’s.
Why Australian pest control teams choose Hunter
Hunter matches PestScan’s station-level rigour and puts an Australian rulebook underneath it:
- Bait stations, assets and QR tracking with per-visit readings
- Per-state compliance records for NSW, VIC, QLD, WA, SA, TAS, ACT and NT
- Food-safety and HACCP tooling for food-grade operators
- An AI agent that quotes, schedules and handles customer comms
- AUD pricing and local, same-timezone support
