Real, verified feedback from people we've helped — straight from Google.
What we cover in Hammondville, and how quickly we can get there.
Hammondville is part of the South West Sydney, 24.8 km or so west of the GPO, and 2170 is a postcode we know well. We run Hammondville on a regular route, and same-day attendance is usually available.
The Hammondville addresses we attend cluster around Deepwater Park and Wattle Grove Shopping Village. Moorebank Shopping Village is another part of the suburb we are called to often.
Liverpool, Fairfield and Cumberland is the council area for Hammondville, and we treat Holsworthy, Wattle Grove and Voyager Point on the same schedule. Newer estate housing sits close together on small blocks, so what happens next door matters. We check the boundary and the fence line, not just the house.
Most Hammondville bookings come in as recently built homes where the activity started at the boundary. Say which one applies when you call 1300 313 373 and the technician will have the right products on the van.
Holsworthy station and East Hills station are on the same round, which means every part of 2170 is within our area.
You get a confirmed time, not a window. We plan the 2170 run the day before, and if Holsworthy or Wattle Grove is on the same round there is often an earlier slot going.
A mouse gets through a gap the width of a pencil and a rat through one about the width of your thumb. Around Hammondville the usual ways in are weep holes, the gap under a roller door, and the hole a plumber cut and never sealed.
Roof rats travel along branches and power lines and enter at the eaves. Cutting back the branch touching a Hammondville roof removes the bridge entirely.
A mouse will nest in a drawer or a wall void; a rat wants the roof cavity or the sub-floor. Knowing which you have decides where everything goes.
Three introduced rodents cause almost every rodent job in Sydney. A fourth, the native bush rat, needs to be recognised and left alone.
Slim, long-tailed and thin-eared. This is the one in the roof void, the wall cavity, the palm tree and the dense hedge. Rat control →
A solid, blunt-nosed rat with a tail shorter than its body, and a burrower rather than a climber. 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 →
This is a native animal with legal protection in NSW. Correct identification is not a formality here - it determines whether treatment is lawful at all.
Most people never get a clear look. These are the clues our technicians use instead.
| Clue | Rats | Mice |
|---|---|---|
| Droppings | Capsule-shaped and clearly bigger, gathered along a runway | Rice-grain pellets spread about widely, drawers and cupboards included |
| Noise | Heavy movement - thumps and dragging - in the roof, usually at night | Light rapid scratching and scurrying in the walls and ceiling |
| 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 gaps | 12 mm or bigger, though they will chew a tighter gap open | 6 mm or so, about the width of a pencil |
| What they damage | Gnawed cables, downpipes and irrigation lines, plus garden fruit | Chewed packaging and nibbled food, with paper torn up for nests |
| Behaviour | Wary of new objects, so they take longer to visit a station | Curious, and investigate new objects quickly but feed in tiny amounts |
| Grease marks | Dark smears where they rub past beams, rafters and entry points | Light marks, usually missed |

The NSW Health list of rodent-associated diseases includes leptospirosis, lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus, rat bite fever and gastro infections like salmonellosis.
Because their incisors keep growing, they gnaw continually. Electrical cabling, gas and water lines in the roof are the common victims.
Once there is urine and droppings on the bench and the packaging, the food goes out and the surfaces get disinfected.
Rats and mice both breed several times a year. A pair you notice in autumn is a colony by spring.
From working out what's in the roof to confirming it's gone.
We read the evidence first - droppings, rub marks, nests, runways - through the roof void, subfloor, kitchen and perimeter, and confirm the species from it.
The recommendation follows the species, the building and the household. That produces a baiting program, a trapping program, proofing, or some combination.
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 identify the entry points - gaps, vents, penetrations - and give you the option of us sealing them or doing 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 | Blocks of rodenticide secured in tamper-resistant stations on live runways | Established activity in roof spaces, subfloors and around the perimeter | Not the right choice if odour from a carcass in a wall would be an issue |
| 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 | Closing off gaps, vents, weep holes and pipe penetrations using rodent-resistant materials | Any property, once the active rodents have been brought under control | It will not remove what is already inside, so it comes after treatment |
| Monitoring | Non-toxic blocks or stations, inspected for gnaw marks and droppings | Commercial sites, strata buildings and homes backing onto reserves or water | Most useful run as a scheduled ongoing service |
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.
The rats are usually in the bin room or basement car park, the mice in the risers. That is why a single-unit treatment seldom works and a strata program on common property does.
Under Standard 3.2.2 of the Food Standards Code a food business must take all practicable measures to exclude pests. Restaurant programs trap in food areas, use numbered stations elsewhere, and come with a site plan for inspectors.
Loading docks, pallet racking and ceiling voids all shelter rodents, so warehouse and office programs rely on perimeter stations and scheduled, reported monitoring.

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.
Stations are secured in position so bait can't be dragged out by rodents, pets or curious children.
We check what has been taken from each station, which shows the population declining and signals when to reduce the program.
Insurance claims from rodent-damaged wiring are common and often disputed. Treating early is cheaper than arguing later.
The maths is the argument for acting early. Treating two mice costs a fraction of treating the thirty they become.
Rats are neophobic: anything new in their environment is avoided for days before it is investigated. That is why a baiting program in a Hammondville roof void is not judged on the first visit, and why moving stations around resets the clock.
Rats, mice, or a protected native species - that gets confirmed on site before any bait is placed.
Tamper-resistant and locked, fixed where they sit, and never within reach of children, pets or wildlife.

At roughly 24.8 km west of the city, Hammondville is on a route we run regularly. Same-day attendance is usually available. You will be given a time, not a window.
The ground here was cleared and rebuilt recently, which displaced whatever lived in it, and the blocks are close enough that rats and mice move between them along the fence lines.
Recent estate housing - slab on ground, narrow side passages, young landscaping. The perimeter does most of the work.
We do. A lot of our Hammondville work is rentals and strata, so the report, the products used and the areas treated are all recorded in writing for whoever needs them.
Yes, with the usual care. Everything is APVMA-registered and used to label, and we will work around pets, aquariums and anyone in the house with a respiratory condition if you tell us when you book.
In the great majority of jobs, no. If one area needs to be left for an hour or two we say so before we start rather than after.
Most rodent control jobs in a Hammondville home take between one and two hours on site, depending on the size of the property and how much of it is affected.
Every general treatment carries a 6-month warranty. A return visit within the warranty period costs you nothing.
All of them. Hammondville sits alongside Holsworthy, Wattle Grove, Voyager Point and Milperra in our coverage, and they are serviced on the same schedule.
