In Memory of Rod Lewis (1954 – 2024)
Rod Lewis was more than a colleague — he was a mentor, a friend, and an integral part of Jets Pest Control’s story. With decades of experience in the pest control industry, Rod worked with several respected companies before joining Jets Pest Control. His knowledge, wisdom, and encouragement helped shape both our business and the careers of those he mentored.
Rod was a guiding influence for both Shaun Michels and Jason Forman, offering unwavering support and standing by us as we built Jets Pest Control. His kindness, loyalty, and generosity left an indelible mark, and the lessons he shared will remain with us always.
Rod deeply loved his family, his community, and his many passions in life — from sport to the outdoors. Those who knew him best described him as “a real fair dinkum Aussie bloke,” and to us, he was that and so much more.
We are forever grateful to have known him and honoured to have called him both mentor and friend. His legacy continues to live on through the work we do every day at Jets Pest Control.

What Ipswich Homeowners Are Saying
We had found termites in our home and found it a very stressful experience until I called Jets. He came to us straight away, our house was baited the next day, and two months later we have no termites and our house is fully protected. We can breathe easy now.
Shaun and Jason were both extremely helpful. Their professionalism, knowledge and guidance were second to none. They took the time to explain everything clearly and ensured the work was done thoroughly and efficiently. Highly recommend.
The guys from Jets were so helpful, knowledgeable, old-school customer service, prompt service and fair pricing.
I am beyond impressed with the service and workmanship of Jets Pest Control. Jason was more than thorough. Their knowledge and attention to detail is far superior to anything I have seen.
You won't find anyone more knowledgeable or genuine when it comes to taking care of your pest control needs.
