Pest control in a growing Plumpton
Plumpton had just 79 residents at the 2021 Census, but it's planned to grow fast: the Plumpton Precinct Structure Plan, approved in February 2018, provides for around 29,900 people and over 12,000 jobs.
Building on that scale disturbs the mice, rats and spiders that live in open paddocks, and they move into the nearest finished homes and garages.
Builders' rubble, stacked materials and site sheds give them places to hide during construction. Once your home is handed over, clearing leftover materials from the yard leaves them fewer places to settle.
Pests we treat in Plumpton
Mice and rats from building sites
When paddocks are cleared, the mice and rats living in them don't disappear. They look for shelter, and a new garage or wall cavity next to the site is ideal.
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.
Spiders on brand new homes
Fresh eaves, window frames and fences are clean when you move in, but spiders arrive as soon as outdoor lights start drawing insects.
Spider treatment covers inside and outside the home, including eaves, window and door frames, fences and garden edges where webs build up.
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.
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.
Wasps and bees
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.
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.

Active pests in Plumpton Melbourne this summer
In Melbourne, as summer heats up, homeowners may notice an increase in cockroaches, ants, and fleas. Look for signs such as droppings, grease marks, and visible ant trails in and around the house. Fleas can often be found by spotting itchy pets and small black specks on their fur. Keeping food sealed and maintaining cleanliness can help, but it's wise to book a professional treatment if these pests become a problem.
