Where Hunters Hill sits, who covers it and what it costs.
Hunters Hill is part of the Lower North Shore, 7.2 km or so north-west of the GPO, and 2110 is a postcode we know well. Our technicians are through Hunters Hill most days, so same-day attendance is usually available.
Most weeks we are somewhere between Fig Tree Park and Parramatta River Regional Park in Hunters Hill, and Gladesville Shopping Centre is close enough to be on the same run.
The suburb sits in the North Sydney, Mosman, Willoughby, Lane Cove and Hunters Hill area. Linley Point, Longueville and Riverview are all covered on the same day, so a problem that has spread across a boundary can be handled in one visit. A lot of the housing here is older and close to the water, so sub-floors and lower levels hold damp - and damp is what keeps a population going.
The rodent calls we take from Hunters Hill are mostly period houses and converted blocks where the lower level is the problem. If yours is one of them, mention it when you ring 1300 313 373 - it changes what the technician brings.
The whole of 2110 is on our regular run.
Your appointment is confirmed the day before with a real arrival time. Because Linley Point and Longueville are covered on the same round, 2110 often has an earlier slot available.
If nothing has been taken from a station after a few days in a Hunters Hill job, that is normal for rats rather than a failed treatment. We leave stations in place precisely because moving them starts the wariness again.
Water pipes, downpipes, flexible gas lines and conduit all get gnawed. A small rodent problem in a Hunters Hill ceiling can become an expensive one through damage rather than numbers.
Roof rats travel along branches and power lines and enter at the eaves. Cutting back the branch touching a Hunters Hill roof removes the bridge entirely.
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 rat whose tail is longer than its body, with large thin ears. It stays high - roof spaces, wall cavities, palms and heavy planting. Rat control →
Thickset with a blunt muzzle and short tail. It digs rather than climbs, so look in the subfloor, the drain lines, the compost and under slabs.
A pencil-width gap is all it takes. Mice stay near food, which means kitchens, pantries and the wall cavities alongside them. Mice control →
A native species living near bushland reserves, and protected in NSW. Identification has to come first, before any decision about treatment.
Most people never get a clear look. These are the clues our technicians use instead.
| Clue | Rats | Mice |
|---|---|---|
| Droppings | Sizeable capsule-shaped pellets, typically grouped along a runway | Small rice-like droppings spread widely, including in drawers and cupboards |
| Noise | Heavy movement - thumps and dragging - in the roof, usually at night | Light rapid scratching and scurrying in the walls and ceiling |
| Where it shows up | Roof void and eaves, subfloor, garden beds, underneath decking | Kitchen and pantry areas, behind the fridge and stove, bottom drawers |
| How small a gap | Around 12 mm upwards, and they can gnaw their way through less | Around 6 mm, 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 |
| How they react to a station | Wary of the unfamiliar, which delays the first visit | Quick to investigate, though each feed is very small |
| Grease marks | Dark rub marks on beams, rafters and entry holes | Faint marks, rarely noticed |

Among the diseases NSW Health links to rodents are leptospirosis, lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus, rat bite fever and gastro infections including salmonellosis.
Rodents gnaw constantly to wear down their teeth. Cabling, gas and water lines in roof voids are common casualties.
Urine and droppings on benches and packaging mean food has to be thrown out and surfaces disinfected.
Several litters a year from both species means the two you saw in autumn have become a population 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.
Based on the species, the building and who lives there (children, pets, food handling), we recommend baiting, trapping, proofing or a combination.
Lockable, tamper-resistant stations go on the runways we find, secured and out of reach, with trap placement where baiting isn't suitable.
Every gap, vent and penetration they use is marked up, with a quote to proof them or guidance if you want to handle it.
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 set along walls and runways, checked on a schedule | Kitchens, pantries, food businesses and small indoor populations | Needs regular checking and correct placement to work |
| Proofing | Sealing every gap, vent, weep hole and pipe penetration with rodent-resistant materials | Every building, once activity has been brought down | Seals them out, not in - so treatment has to come first |
| Monitoring | Non-toxic blocks or stations, checked each visit for gnawing and droppings | Businesses, strata buildings and homes near reserves or waterways | Really only works as an ongoing scheduled 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.
In a block the rats live in the bin room and car park while mice move through the risers. Treating your apartment alone rarely ends it; a strata program covering common property will.
Standard 3.2.2 of the Food Standards Code requires food businesses to take all practicable measures to keep pests out. Restaurant programs use trapping in food areas, numbered stations elsewhere and a site plan for inspectors.
There is cover everywhere in a warehouse - the dock, the racking, the ceiling space. Warehouse and office programs run perimeter stations with scheduled monitoring and written reports.

The droppings trace the runway along ducting and joists, and stations go on the runway rather than anywhere convenient.
Shredded insulation and nesting material under the floor is typical of ground-level rat activity.
Each station is fixed in place so nothing - rodent, pet or child - can drag the bait out of it.
Checking feeding at each station tells us when the population is falling and when to scale back.
The maths is the argument for acting early. Treating two mice costs a fraction of treating the thirty they become.
Before placing a single station we look at what is feeding them: compost, fruit trees, pet bowls, bird seed, bins. Remove the supply and the program works far faster.
Rats and mice need different station sizes, different bait and different placement. Droppings tell us straight away - mouse droppings are rice-grain sized, rat droppings are closer to a date stone. Getting it wrong on a Hunters Hill job wastes the first fortnight.
Nothing is baited until we know what it is. Rats, mice and protected natives are not treated the same way.
Stations are tamper-resistant and fixed down, sited clear of children, pets and wildlife.

Same-day attendance is usually available. Hunters Hill sits roughly 7.2 km north-west of the CBD, inside our Lower North Shore run, so we book a time and keep to it.
Sub-floor ventilation on these older homes was designed for an open garden, and most of those gardens are now paved or planted out. The damp that leaves behind is what sustains rats and mice.
Large older homes and converted apartments, with damp lower levels the recurring theme.
Yes - freestanding homes, townhouses, apartments, rentals and business premises in Hunters Hill 2110 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.
Most of the time you can carry on as normal. If a particular area needs to be empty we will flag it when we arrive and it is rarely more than a couple of hours.
An hour to two hours covers most jobs. The size of the building and the extent of the problem are what change it.
Every general treatment carries a 6-month warranty. That is the point of the warranty - you do not pay twice for the same problem.
