Real, verified feedback from people we've helped — straight from Google.
Local technicians, fixed prices and a written report for every job in Gladesville.
Gladesville sits about 8.7 km north-west of the CBD in the Ryde & the Northern District, and postcode 2111 is one we are in most weeks. Our technicians are through Gladesville most days, so same-day attendance is usually available.
Our Gladesville work takes in the streets by Cabarita Shopping Centre and Peel Park, through to Monash Park at the other end.
Tennyson Point, Huntleys Cove and Henley are all on the same route as Gladesville. The building stock is close-packed, so we look at what the property adjoins before deciding where product goes.
Most Gladesville bookings come in as older semis with a paved rear courtyard and a sub-floor that no longer dries out. Say which one applies when you call 1300 313 373 and the technician will have the right products on the van.
Our Gladesville runs also take in Field of Mars Reserve and the area near Parramatta River Regional Park, so the whole postcode is served.
We confirm your slot the day before and arrive at a stated time. Tennyson Point and Huntleys Cove sit on the same run, so earlier appointments in 2111 come up regularly.
Rodents gnaw constantly to keep their incisors down, and in a Gladesville roof void that means cabling. Chewed insulation on live wiring is a genuine fire risk and it is the reason we do not treat this as a nuisance problem.
Flattened or tunnelled insulation in a Gladesville ceiling is nesting, not storm damage. It is also where droppings and urine accumulate, which is the contamination issue.
A rodent problem is a food problem. Around Gladesville the usual sources are a bird feeder, fallen fruit, an open compost bay, pet food left out overnight and a bin with no lid - and no amount of baiting outruns a reliable food supply.
Three introduced rodents cause almost every rodent job in Sydney. A fourth, the native bush rat, needs to be recognised and left alone.
A slim climber with a tail longer than its body and large thin ears. Lives up high: roof voids, wall cavities, palms and dense trees. Rat control →
A heavy-set rat with a blunt muzzle and a short tail. It works at ground level, burrowing into subfloors, drains, compost bays and the space under a slab.
Tiny, and able to pass a gap the width of a pencil. It lives close to its food in kitchens, pantries and the cavities behind them. Mice control →
A protected native species found close to bushland. Nothing is treated until we have confirmed this is not what we are looking at.
Most people never get a clear look. These are the clues our technicians use instead.
| Clue | Rats | Mice |
|---|---|---|
| Droppings | Bigger capsule-shaped pellets, usually grouped along a runway | Tiny rice-grain pellets spread about, turning up in drawers and cupboards |
| Noise | Thumping and dragging sounds in the roof space, mostly after dark | Fast, light scratching and scurrying through wall and ceiling cavities |
| Where you see evidence | Roof void, eaves, under the floor, in garden beds and beneath decks | The kitchen and pantry, behind white goods, and in the lowest drawers |
| Entry gap | About 12 mm or more, enlarged by gnawing where it is tighter | About 6 mm - a pencil's width |
| What gets damaged | Cabling, downpipes and irrigation gnawed through, plus fruit in the garden | Packets chewed open, food nibbled, and paper shredded for nesting |
| How they react to a station | Wary of the unfamiliar, which delays the first visit | Quick to investigate, though each feed is very small |
| Smear marks | Dark rubbing on beams, rafters and the edges of entry holes | Light marks that are seldom noticed |

NSW Health lists leptospirosis, lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus, rat bite fever and gastro infections such as salmonellosis among diseases linked to rodents.
Constant gnawing is how a rodent keeps its teeth in check. In a roof void that means cabling, gas and water lines take the damage.
Droppings and urine across benches and packaging mean discarding the food and disinfecting everything they touched.
Both breed repeatedly through the year, which is how a pair in autumn turns into a colony come spring.
From working out what's in the roof to confirming it's gone.
We go through the roof void, under the floor, the kitchen and the perimeter looking for droppings, rub marks, nests and runways - and confirm the species.
We match the program to the species, the building and the people in it - children, pets, food handling - and that settles baiting, trapping, proofing or a blend.
We place lockable, tamper-resistant stations along the runways, fixed down and out of reach, using traps wherever baiting is not the right call.
We show you the gaps, vents and penetrations rodents are using and quote to seal them, or explain how to do it yourself.
Stations are checked and topped up, activity is recorded and the program is scaled back once feeding stops.
No single method suits every building. This is how we decide what goes where.
| Method | How it works | Best for | Watch-outs |
|---|---|---|---|
| Baiting in lockable stations | Rodenticide blocks locked into tamper-resistant stations along the active runways | Roof voids, under floors and outdoor perimeters where there is real activity | Best avoided where an odour from a carcass in a cavity would be a problem |
| Trapping | Snap or enclosed traps along wall lines and runways, serviced on schedule | Kitchens, pantries, food premises and small indoor populations | Depends on correct placement and being checked regularly |
| Proofing | Sealing gaps, vents, weep holes and pipe penetrations with rodent-resistant materials | Every property, once active rodents are under control | Doesn't remove rodents already inside, so it follows treatment |
| Monitoring | Non-toxic monitoring blocks checked each visit for gnawing and droppings | Businesses, strata properties, and homes near bushland or waterways | Designed as an ongoing scheduled service rather than a one-off |
Why baiting often outperforms DIY snap traps in roof voids: read our explainer.
Terraces in the Inner West and Eastern Suburbs often share roof voids and wall cavities with neighbours, so rodents move freely between homes. We focus on the roof void, subfloor and the gaps where services enter.
Bin rooms and basement car parks house the rats; mice use the service risers. One unit treated alone rarely resolves it - a strata program across common property does.
Standard 3.2.2 of the Food Standards Code sets the obligation: all practicable measures to keep pests out. Restaurant programs use trapping in food handling areas, numbered stations elsewhere, and a documented site plan.
Warehouses offer rodents cover at the dock, in the racking and above the ceiling. Our warehouse and office programs use perimeter stations on a monitoring schedule, with reports each visit.

Ducting and ceiling joists with droppings along them mark the routes in use, and the stations follow those routes.
Shredded insulation and nesting material under the floor is typical of ground-level rat activity.
We fix every station down. That stops bait being dragged out by a rodent, a pet or a curious child.
Feeding levels at the stations are the measure - they tell us the population is falling and when to scale back.
If nothing has been taken from a station after a few days in a Gladesville job, that is normal for rats rather than a failed treatment. We leave stations in place precisely because moving them starts the wariness again.
A mouse gets through a gap the width of a pencil and a rat through one about the width of your thumb. Around Gladesville the usual ways in are weep holes, the gap under a roller door, and the hole a plumber cut and never sealed.
Noise helps too. Mice scurry light and fast in wall cavities; rats are heavier and tend to run along ceiling joists. In Gladesville roofs we hear both.
Identification precedes any bait. Rats, mice and protected native rats each need a different answer.
Tamper-resistant and locked, fixed where they sit, and never within reach of children, pets or wildlife.

At roughly 8.7 km north-west of the city, Gladesville is on a route we run regularly. Same-day attendance is usually available. You will be given a time, not a window.
The housing stock is old and joined together. A shared wall cavity or a continuous sub-floor lets rats and mice travel from one property to the next, which is why your neighbour matters.
Terraces and semis that share walls, roof voids and drainage - so we look at what the property adjoins before deciding where product goes.
Yes - freestanding homes, townhouses, apartments, rentals and business premises in Gladesville 2111 are all covered, with documentation suitable for an agent or a strata manager.
Yes, applied correctly. Products are registered for this use, placed out of reach rather than across open surfaces, and you will know what to stay off and for how long.
Normally you can stay. Some treatments mean keeping out of a particular room briefly, and we will flag that when we arrive so you can plan around it.
Typically one to two hours on site. What extends it is size, access and how far the problem has gone, all of which are accounted for in the quote.
