What we treat in Hughes.
The bulk of our work in Woden Valley splits into four services — general pest control, termite treatment for how much older-build timber there is in the area, rodent and bird control for ceiling voids near mature trees, and wasp or bee removal on request. Beyond those four we also treat ants, spiders, cockroaches, fleas, bed bugs, silverfish and possums in Hughes, and carry out pre-purchase timber pest inspections for buyers.

The pests we see most in Hughes.
Hughes is a leafy, well-established Woden suburb of 1960s homes and generous gardens, sitting between Garran, Deakin and the town centre. Its pest pattern comes down to the age of the housing and those mature yards — mainly these four.
Termites & ageing homes
With most of Hughes built more than half a century ago, original soil barriers have long broken down. A routine inspection is the cheapest way to stay ahead of a costly termite problem.
Redbacks & white-tails
The old brick walls and settled gardens that make Hughes attractive are also ideal spider harbourage. We treat the outdoor hot-spots and the internal corners white-tails drift into.
European wasps
Eaves, garden sheds and wall cavities are the usual nest sites around Hughes each summer. We locate the colony and destroy it at source rather than spraying the few you can see.
Silverfish indoors
Cooler older homes here often get silverfish in linen cupboards, bookshelves and roof spaces. An internal treatment paired with a couple of storage tweaks keeps them down.
