What we treat in Duffy.
We treat four things most often across Weston Creek: general household pests, termites (given how much older-build timber there is in the area), rodents and birds (roof-void and ceiling activity), and wasp or bee nests. Beyond those four we also treat ants, spiders, cockroaches, fleas, bed bugs, silverfish and possums in Duffy, and carry out pre-purchase timber pest inspections for buyers.

The pests we see most in Duffy.
Duffy sits on the western edge of Weston Creek against the Stromlo pine forest — the suburb hit hardest by the 2003 Canberra bushfires, so its housing is a distinctive mix of surviving 1970s homes and post-2003 rebuilds. That forest border and the mixed construction shape the pest work here. Four issues dominate Duffy call-outs.
Forest-edge spiders
Against the Stromlo forest edge, Duffy sees plenty of spiders — huntsmen and orb-weavers on the western streets, with funnel-webs appearing in shaded beds and under floors. Our treatment runs over the perimeter and every way in, not just inside.
Termites in the older stock
Duffy's surviving 1970s houses no longer have a working barrier — those especially warrant a yearly accredited termite check. The post-2003 rebuilds carry newer barriers that are now old enough to be worth re-testing.
Possums & wildlife off the forest
Duffy's forest-side yards get possums in the roof and the odd wildlife visitor off the pine edge. We proof the entry points and rehome anything living within the rules.
Wasps in sheds & eaves
European and paper wasps nest in garden sheds, eaves and retaining walls across Duffy over summer — identified and removed safely.
