What we treat in Inner South.

Beyond those four we also treat ants, spiders, cockroaches, fleas, bed bugs, silverfish and possums in Inner South, and carry out pre-purchase timber pest inspections for buyers.

The pests we see most in Inner South.

The Inner South runs from the heritage homes of Forrest, Griffith and Red Hill to the restaurants of Manuka and the apartment towers of the Kingston Foreshore. The pest mix changes with the streetscape, but four issues are common to the whole district.

Termites in the heritage homes

Forrest, Griffith and the older parts of Deakin hold some of Canberra's earliest housing, none of it with a barrier that still works. On homes this old, an annual inspection is simply the sensible baseline.

German cockroaches in dining & apartments

The cafe strips at Manuka and Kingston and the high-density Foreshore blocks let German cockroaches spread between tenancies. Coordinated treatment stops the movement.

Ants & spiders in old gardens

The mature gardens across Manuka, Griffith and Deakin are constant sources of ants and spiders that head indoors. We treat the beds and entries to hold them outside.

Silverfish in period homes

Silverfish thrive in the linen cupboards, bookshelves and roof spaces of the district's older homes. An internal treatment keeps them out of stored clothing and paperwork.
