Pest control in Eynesbury

Pests we treat in Eynesbury

Spiders on the bush edge

Spiders follow insects, and bushland plus outdoor lights draws a lot of them. Homes facing the forest get webs on eaves, frames, garages and outdoor furniture faster than you can brush them away.

Spider treatment covers inside and outside the home, including eaves, window and door frames, fences and garden edges where webs build up.

European wasps around the township

European wasps are drawn to food and drink outdoors, which puts them on patios and at picnic spots in summer. A nest in your lawn or garden bed is the part we deal with.

About 80% of European wasp nests are in the ground, often in lawns and garden beds, and the rest are in roofs or wall cavities. Nests grow over summer and peak in early autumn, and a wasp can sting repeatedly when its nest is disturbed. Don't block the entrance or spray it yourself; book a nest treatment instead.

Possums in the roof

Thumping and scratching above the ceiling at night is usually a brushtail possum. Possums are protected in Victoria under the Wildlife Act 1975. A brushtail caught in a building must be released no more than 50 metres away, after sunset on the same day, so the lasting fix is finding and sealing the way into your roof.

Rats and mice

Droppings in the pantry, chewed packaging or scratching in the roof or under the floor are the usual signs. We treat inside the home, the roof space or underneath it, depending on where the noise is coming from, with up to 2 months' guarantee for properties in normal to average condition.

Cockroaches

Larger cockroaches usually come in from gardens and drains, while German cockroaches breed indoors around kitchens and appliances and need their own treatment. Both are treated inside and outside the home, with up to 2 months' guarantee.

Termites

Termites eat timber from the inside, so the damage often stays hidden until it is serious. If you've noticed mud tubes on walls or skirting boards that sound hollow, book a termite treatment, or start with an inspection-only visit if you just want to know where you stand.

Ants

Ants follow food trails into kitchens and bathrooms and nest under paving, slabs and lawns. We can treat inside, outside or both, with up to 2 months' guarantee.

Fleas and bed bugs

Fleas come in on pets and can live on in carpets after the pet has gone. Bed bugs hide in mattresses, bed frames and furniture seams and usually arrive in luggage or second-hand furniture. Both are treated inside the home, with up to 2 months' guarantee.
