Asquith is a Hornsby Shire suburb about 22 km north-west of the Sydney CBD, in postcode 2077. It grew around Asquith station, which opened in 1915, and much of its housing is 20th-century suburban cottages and brick homes on quiet streets either side of the Pacific Highway and the Main North rail line. A section of Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park reaches into the eastern side of the suburb, so plenty of backyards end in eucalypt bush.
That combination of older houses and natural bushland is what we plan around. Timber-framed cottages with raised floors give termites and rats hidden routes in, while bush-backed gardens bring funnel-webs, huntsman spiders and brushtail possums close to the house. Closer to the highway and the station, shops and bins add cockroach and rodent pressure. We inspect first, explain what we found in plain terms, and price the treatment your Asquith property actually needs.
We cover all of Asquith, from streets near the station out to the bush edge on the eastern side. Our northern run also takes in Hornsby, Hornsby Heights, Mount Colah and North Wahroonga, so a technician is rarely far away and same or next-day bookings are usually possible.

What we actually see on the ground in Asquith, and why it changes the treatment.
Three things shape pest activity in Asquith. Asquith station is about 0.3 km away, and the rail corridor with its drains and embankments gives rats a protected path between backyards. Asquith Golf Club, about 1.2 km away, keeps large areas of turf watered, which suits mosquitoes and ants in warm weather. Collingridge Reserve, about 1.6 km away, is one of several bushland pockets feeding spiders, termites and possums toward nearby homes.
For older cottages we pay close attention to the sub-floor, stumps, verandah timbers and any garden edging touching the walls.
Landmarks we work around: Collingridge Reserve, Asquith Golf Club, Asquith station, Gardenia Street Park.
General pest control in Asquith is from $89, and a termite inspection is from $159. Termite treatment starts from $179 and possum removal from $179. The final fixed price depends on the size of the house, whether it has a sub-floor or slab, and how close it sits to bushland. You are quoted before we start, and general treatments carry a 6-month warranty.

Asquith sits between a busy rail and highway corridor and a national park, and most pest problems here come from one side or the other.
Homes backing onto Ku-ring-gai Chase can see funnel-web spiders, ticks, possums and bush rats moving in from leaf litter and rock shelves, especially after rain.
Many older cottages sit on piers with timber bearers and joists, which can give subterranean termites and rodents concealed access if ventilation is poor.
The Main North line and Pacific Highway strip bring drains, embankments and commercial bins that can support rats and cockroaches near surrounding streets.
Golf course fairways and sports fields hold moisture through summer, which can lift mosquito numbers and ant activity in homes close by.

Proximity alone does not mean an infestation, but a yearly inspection is sensible. Ours start from $159 and cover the sub-floor, roof void and the garden around the house.
Treatment focuses on where they shelter: under rocks, logs, sleepers and the gap under doors. We apply a perimeter and sub-floor treatment and point out harbourage you can remove. Keeping shoes off the floor outside and fitting door seals also helps. If someone is bitten, apply a pressure bandage and call 000 straight away.
Yes. Brushtail possums are protected in NSW, so we use a one-way exit or licensed trapping and release on your property, then seal the entry point so it cannot return. Possum removal starts from $179. Trimming overhanging branches afterwards stops most repeat visits.

Yes. We use APVMA-registered, low-toxicity products, and gels and baits go into cracks and voids that children and pets cannot reach.
