SILVERFISH
Silverfish may be found living close to their food source. They eat such things as starch, flour, paper, glue, synthetic fibre and foods containing carbohydrates and protein.
FLEAS
The life cycle of a flea begins as an egg then larvae, caterpillar, pupa (cocoon) and finally adult. A newly hatched flea is unfed, small, black and aggressive. After a blood meal fleas lighten in colour and become larger. Ten fleas can potentially reproduce up to 250,000 in a matter of 30 days.
BED BUGS
Bed Bugs are a major problem in the hospitality industry in Sydney. Bed Bugs feed at night & after a blood meal they breed & lay between 2-3 eggs per day with the eggs hatching in about 10 days. All inspections, treatments are carried out to the code of practice guide lines.
RATS & MICE Rodent Control Sheet - (Click Here)
Properties are invaded in autumn/winter every year. Rats and mice contaminate our properties with urine and droppings, which spread disease. Rats and mice like gnawing electrical junction boxes, potentially causing fire hazards.

BIRDS
The feral pigeon is the number one urban pest bird with starlings and Indian myna birds to a lesser extent. The damage from these pests results into millions of dollars. The uric acid in their faeces is highly corrosive and their nesting materials block drains and guttering and also breed bacteria and fungal spores which are a health risk to the public.
BIRD MITES
The treatment requires all birds nests must be removed and entry points flashed, and the area around the nesting materials treated. Interior of property may need to be space sprayed in extreme cases.
COCKROACHES
Cockroaches generally live outdoors and are active at night. They forage for food, water and mates. The most important aspect of cockroach contamination is their habit of feeding and harbouring in damp places such as garbage waste areas and sewers. Germs and filth from these areas are spread by the cockroaches travelling onto our food preparation areas. Disease is thereby transmitted to humans through food consumption and takes the form such as food poisoning and gastroenteritis.
WASPS
Paper wasps are more active in the daytime. For safety, they should be treated in the early morning or late afternoon.
