Turramurra is a Ku-ring-gai Council suburb about 17 km north-west of the Sydney CBD, in postcode 2074. Sitting at around 170 metres, it has a notably wet climate for Sydney. The suburb is known for Federation-era architecture from the 1890s to 1910s, including heritage homes such as Ingleholme, and roughly two thirds of dwellings are houses, with apartments concentrated near Turramurra station. Shops are spread across the Pacific Highway and Rohini Street precinct and smaller strips, and Sheldon Forest, with its blue gum and turpentine high forest, lies within the area.
Regular rain and mature tree cover keep gardens and sub-floors damp, which suits subterranean termites and keeps cockroaches, slaters and spiders active. Federation houses add timber floors and verandahs, while tall trees give possums roof access. Apartments near the station need a different approach for cockroaches and rodents. We factor all of this into how we inspect and treat.
We cover all of Turramurra, from apartments near the station to houses towards Sheldon Forest and the national parks. Warrawee, Pymble, Wahroonga and West Pymble are on the same run, so same or next-day service is usually available.

What we actually see on the ground in Turramurra, and why it changes the treatment.
Turramurra station is about 0.1 km away, and so is Turramurra Village Park; the rail corridor gives rats a route between properties, while the park's plantings shelter ants and spiders. Duff Street Reserve lies about 0.6 km away, bushland that can supply termites, funnel-webs and possums to nearby homes.
With higher rainfall, we check drainage, sub-floor moisture and any timber touching damp soil on every Turramurra house we inspect.
