Blackett is a residential suburb in postcode 2770, about 39.4 km west of the Sydney CBD, in the City of Blacktown. It grew from the 1970s as part of the Mount Druitt public housing development and takes its name from George Blackett, who ran the Government Cattle Station at Rooty Hill. Many of its streets are named after Australian writers. Commercial activity is limited to a small shopping strip with a butcher, bakery and takeaway, and Bidwill, Hebersham, Emerton and Tregear border it.
Blackett's homes have now been lived in for decades, and the large open space of Popondetta Park runs along one side. Those two things shape most of the pest problems here. Rodents move between the parkland, back fences and roof spaces, cockroaches settle into older kitchens and bathrooms, and spiders build up around eaves, sheds and garages. Termites are a quieter risk that is easy to miss until timber is damaged. Our job is to find where the activity is coming from, not just spray what is visible.
Our Mount Druitt area technicians pass through Blackett regularly on the way between Emerton, Bidwill and Hebersham. Tregear is covered on the same days, which makes same or next-day appointments normal for Blackett residents.

What we actually see on the ground in Blackett, and why it changes the treatment.
Popondetta Park is about 0.5 km away and has extensive sporting fields, trees and edges where mice, ants and spiders live. The Charlie Lowles Leisure Centre, also about 0.5 km away, adds irrigated grass and bins, conditions that keep rodents and mosquitoes going in warm weather.
Emerton Village, about 0.6 km away, and the small shops in Blackett itself produce food waste that can feed rats and cockroaches in nearby streets. For Blackett homes we check fence lines, sheds and roof access points as well as kitchens and bathrooms.

Blackett has a lot of open space for a small suburb, plus homes that are decades old. Here is how those features translate into pest problems.
Homes near the park and its cycleway can see more mice, ants and spiders moving in from grass verges, trees and sporting fields.
Decades of settling can open gaps around eaves, windows and pipes that let rodents and cockroaches in without being noticed.
Takeaway, bakery and butcher waste from nearby shops can support rats and cockroaches in the streets around them.
Garden sheds, stored furniture and wood piles are favourite spots for redback spiders, white-tail spiders and nesting mice.

Redback spiders are very common in sheds, under outdoor furniture and in letterboxes, and white-tail and huntsman spiders are also regular visitors. A general treatment covers eaves, window frames, sheds and outdoor areas, starting from $89, and we point out spots to clear so they are less likely to return.
It is worth checking. Homes that have stood for decades often have timber fences, pergolas or garden structures that termites can feed on first. A visual and moisture inspection from $159 will show whether there is any activity and where the risk areas are.
