Pest control in O'Connor.
O'Connor sits between the ANU and Black Mountain, a mix of character cottages, unit blocks and the O'Connor shops precinct. Older character homes bring regular termite call-outs, alongside general pest pressure from nearby Black Mountain bushland. Same-week residential and commercial service. Family-run. Fully licensed, ACT-licensed. Locally based.
What we treat in O'Connor.
There are four services we provide most in Inner North Canberra: general pest control, termite treatment given the older housing stock common to the area, rodent and bird control given eaves and roof cavities close to tree cover, and wasp or bee removal. Beyond those four we also treat ants, spiders, cockroaches, fleas, bed bugs, silverfish and possums in O'Connor, and carry out pre-purchase timber pest inspections for buyers.

The pests we see most in O'Connor.
O'Connor is a leafy Inner North suburb of 1920s-40s character homes running up to Black Mountain and Bruce Ridge, with student units closer to the ANU. The bushland edge and the old housing drive the pest work; four issues stand out.
Termites in character cottages
O'Connor's period homes have original timber and no barrier still in service, and the bushland keeps the ground damp. Inspection is the sensible safeguard on houses this age.
Spiders off Black Mountain
Huntsmen and orb weavers move down from the Black Mountain and Bruce Ridge bushland into O'Connor's fence lines, sheds and sub-floors. Treatment works from the boundary in.
European wasps in the gardens
The established gardens and their sheds and retaining walls host wasp nests through spring and summer. We locate and destroy each nest at source.
Silverfish & moths indoors
Older wardrobes, linen presses and roof spaces here are prone to silverfish and clothes moths. A focused internal treatment and some storage tweaks keep them down.
