Real, verified feedback from people we've helped — straight from Google.
Rodd Point is a small residential suburb on Iron Cove, part of the Parramatta River, in the City of Canada Bay. It shares postcode 2046 and sits about 6.1 km west of the Sydney CBD. Just offshore is Rodd Island, and Rodd Park at the tip of the point is home to the Rodd Point memorial and the Dobroyd Aquatic Club. The Bay Run, a well-used walking and cycling track around Iron Cove, passes close by, so the suburb has a quiet, waterside feel.
Water on several sides is the main pest influence at Rodd Point. Foreshore land, parks and gardens hold moisture, which suits subterranean termites, and shoreline vegetation can harbour spiders and rodents. Mosquitoes can become noticeable in warm, wet weather. Because Rodd Point is almost entirely residential, the issues here are mostly about the house itself: sub-floors, roof spaces, gardens and fence lines. We keep treatments targeted and explain what each one is for.
We treat homes all over Rodd Point, from the streets near Rodd Park to those towards Five Dock. Russell Lea, Wareemba, Five Dock and Haberfield are on the same local round, so same or next-day visits are usually available.

What we actually see on the ground in Rodd Point, and why it changes the treatment.
Nield Park is about 0.2 km away, and its lawns, trees and leaf litter shelter ants, spiders and rodents close to homes. Shoreline parks around Iron Cove add moisture and vegetation that termites and mosquitoes favour.
Leichhardt Park Aquatic Centre is about 0.9 km away across the water, and irrigated grounds and bins around facilities like this can keep rodents active. Leichhardt North light rail station is about 1.4 km away, but at Rodd Point it is the cove, not transport corridors, that drives most pest activity.

Almost everything about pest risk at Rodd Point comes back to its position on Iron Cove. These are the four patterns to watch for.
Damp soil near the Iron Cove foreshore suits subterranean termites, which can reach timber in houses without being seen from inside.
Rodd Park, Nield Park and the Bay Run's vegetation shelter spiders, ants and rodents that can move into neighbouring gardens and homes.
Pooled water in gardens, drains and low spots near the cove can produce mosquitoes in warm months, making outdoor areas less comfortable.
Mature trees, hedges and garden beds around homes give possums, spiders and rodents shelter close to roofs and walls.

Spiders are common around waterside parks and gardens because there are plenty of insects to feed on. Most are harmless, but redbacks and funnel-webs are found across Sydney. A general treatment from $89 targets webs, eaves, garages and garden edges where spiders shelter.
We can treat your property to reduce mosquitoes, from $119, by applying a barrier to shrubs and shady spots where they rest. We cannot treat public parkland or the foreshore, so results focus on your yard. Clearing standing water at home helps the treatment last.
They can. Parks and mature trees near the cove support possums, and they often look for dry roof spaces nearby, entering through gaps at eaves, vents or broken tiles. Possums are protected, so we remove them humanely, release them nearby as NSW rules require and seal the entry. Possum removal starts from $179.
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.
