Living With the Valley in Hornsby Heights
Hornsby Heights is a Hornsby Shire suburb about 24 km north-west of the Sydney CBD, sharing postcode 2077 with Hornsby and Asquith. It is reached by a single road in, Galston Road, and its streets and cul-de-sacs follow ridges cut between steep valleys. Berowra Valley bushland wraps around much of the suburb, Galston Gorge lies on the western side, and the Great North Walk runs along its edge. Retail is limited to a small shopping centre near Galston Road.
Residents regularly see wallabies, possums and echidnas in their streets, and that tells you a lot about the local pest picture. Homes on ridge-edge blocks sit close to leaf litter, rock ledges and fallen timber, so funnel-webs, bush rats, ticks and subterranean termites are the usual concerns. Possums readily move into roof voids. We focus on the bush-facing side of each house and on sealing the gaps wildlife uses.

How the valley shapes pest activity in Hornsby Heights
Berowra Valley National Park lies about 0.7 km away, and bush that close can send termites, funnel-webs and rodents toward houses along the ridge. Ulolo Community Park, also about 0.7 km away, has mulch and ground cover that ants and spiders use. Mount Colah station is about 1.5 km away, the nearest rail corridor.
On a typical Hornsby Heights visit we walk the fence line on the valley side first, then check the sub-floor, garage and roof void.
Landmarks we work around: Berowra Valley National Park, Asquith Golf Club, Mount Colah station, Ulolo Community Park.
How much is pest control in Hornsby Heights?
For a Hornsby Heights home, general pest control is from $89 and a termite inspection from $159. Possum removal starts from $179 and termite treatment from $179.

LOCAL PEST RISKS
Bushland Pest Risks in Hornsby Heights
Nearly every pest issue in Hornsby Heights links back to the surrounding valley. These are the four we deal with most.
Valley on three sides
With Berowra Valley bushland around the suburb, funnel-webs, bush rats and ticks can reach backyards from many directions.
Ridge-edge blocks
Houses built to the edge of slopes often have exposed sub-floors, tall piers and retaining walls that stay damp and can hide termites.
Wildlife in the streets
Possums use trees and power lines to reach roofs, and can nest in ceilings and damage insulation.
Garages and sheds
Garages, sheds and stored gear near the bush give spiders and rodents dry shelter close to the house.

FAQ
Hornsby Heights Pest Control Questions
Local answers for Hornsby Heights residents and businesses. Still unsure? Just call us.
Get a Free QuoteWhy do Hornsby Heights garages get so many funnel-web spiders?
Garages are dark, cool and often have gaps under the door, which suits male funnel-webs wandering from the bush after rain. A door seal, clearing stored clutter from the floor, and a perimeter spider treatment all reduce numbers. If bitten, use a pressure bandage and call 000.
Can possums be kept out of roofs in a suburb with this much wildlife?
Yes, although they will always be around. We remove the possum using a one-way exit, seal the entry point and suggest trimming limbs near the roof. Installing a possum box in a nearby tree gives it somewhere else to go. Removal starts from $179.
Do termites come from the bushland into Hornsby Heights homes?
Bushland holds natural termite colonies, and foraging termites can reach a house through soil, stumps or garden timber. It is not certain, but the risk is real enough that yearly inspections are wise. Ours start from $159 and cover the sub-floor, roof and yard.
How do I get a technician to Hornsby Heights?
Book online or call 1300 313 373. Although there is only one road in, Hornsby Heights is on our regular route and we can usually be there the same or next day.
Are your treatments safe for kids and pets?
Yes. We use APVMA-registered, low-toxicity products, and gels and baits go into cracks and voids that children and pets cannot reach. You are told the re-entry time on the day, usually once surfaces are dry, and which areas not to wipe so the treatment keeps working. Cover fish tanks and switch off pumps before we start.
Are you licensed and is the work guaranteed?
Elite Pest & Termite Solutions holds NSW Pest Management licence 5122967 and is fully insured. General pest treatments carry a 6-month warranty: if covered pests return in that time we come back and re-treat at no charge. Warranty terms for termite, rodent and other specialist work are confirmed in writing with your quote.
