What we treat in Garran.
What comes up most across Woden Valley falls into four buckets — general pests, termites (a concern given the mix of established, timber-framed homes), rodents and birds (driven by roof-void and ceiling activity), and wasps or bees. Beyond those four we also treat ants, spiders, cockroaches, fleas, bed bugs, silverfish and possums in Garran, and carry out pre-purchase timber pest inspections for buyers.

The pests we see most in Garran.
Garran wraps around the Canberra Hospital precinct in central Woden — a quiet 1960s suburb of established homes and mature street trees. The pests here are the classic older-suburb set rather than anything bushland-driven, and four turn up most often.
Termites in 1960s homes
Sixty-year-old brick-veneer and timber-framed houses make up most of Garran, and few still have a working termite barrier. A yearly check is the sensible insurance against a hidden strike reaching the frame.
White-tails & redbacks
Mature gardens, brick retaining walls and garages give redbacks and white-tails plenty of harbourage. Knocking back the outdoor populations stops them finding their way inside.
Rodents in roof spaces
Older roof voids and the heavy tree canopy give rats and mice easy access through the colder months. We bait, trap, then seal the entry gaps so they don't simply return.
Silverfish & pantry pests
The cooler older homes around the hospital precinct are prone to silverfish in linen and roof spaces, plus pantry moths in the kitchen. A targeted internal treatment sorts both.
