Where Kurraba Point sits, who covers it and what it costs.
Kurraba Point is part of the Lower North Shore, 3.1 km or so north-east of the GPO, and 2089 is a postcode we know well. Our technicians are through Kurraba Point most days, so same-day attendance is usually available.
Most weeks we are somewhere between Milson Village and Greenwood Plaza in Kurraba Point, and Milsons Point station is close enough to be on the same run.
The suburb sits in the North Sydney, Mosman, Willoughby, Lane Cove and Hunters Hill area. Cremorne Point, Kirribilli and Neutral Bay 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.
Most Kurraba Point bookings come in as older homes near the water with a sub-floor that never fully dries. Say which one applies when you call 1300 313 373 and the technician will have the right products on the van.
North Sydney station and Wrixton Park are on the same round, which means every part of 2089 is within our area.
We confirm your slot the day before and arrive at a stated time. Cremorne Point and Kirribilli sit on the same run, so earlier appointments in 2089 come up regularly.
If nothing has been taken from a station after a few days in a Kurraba Point job, that is normal for rats rather than a failed treatment. We leave stations in place precisely because moving them starts the wariness again.
Insurance claims from rodent-damaged wiring are common and often disputed. Treating early is cheaper than arguing later.
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.
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 →
The heavier of the two, with a blunt nose and a tail shorter than its body. It burrows at ground level - under the floor, in drains, compost bays and beneath slabs.
A pencil-width gap is all it needs, and it rarely moves far from the kitchen, pantry or the cavity 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 | Large pellets shaped like capsules, generally in clusters along the run | Small droppings the size of rice grains, scattered widely including inside drawers |
| Noise | A heavier thump or drag overhead, generally once it is dark | Quick light scratching and scurrying inside walls and ceilings |
| Where you find them | Roof space, eaves, subfloor, garden beds and beneath decks | Around the kitchen and pantry, behind white goods, in low drawers |
| Gap they need | About 12 mm and up - and they will gnaw a small one wider | About 6 mm, which is roughly a pencil's width |
| Typical damage | Cables, downpipes, irrigation and garden fruit all gnawed | Chewed-open packets, food nibbled at, shredded paper nesting material |
| Behaviour | Wary of new objects, so they take longer to visit a station | Curious, and investigate new objects quickly but feed in tiny amounts |
| Rub marks | Dark greasy rub marks on beams, rafters and around entry holes | Faint marks that are rarely noticed |

Leptospirosis, lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus, rat bite fever and gastro infections such as salmonellosis all appear on the NSW Health list of rodent-linked diseases.
Their teeth never stop growing, so they gnaw constantly - and cabling, gas lines and water pipes in the roof void are what they reach first.
Droppings and urine across benches and packaging mean discarding the food and disinfecting everything they touched.
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.
First the evidence: droppings, rub marks, nests and runways through the roof void, subfloor, kitchen and perimeter, which tells us if it is rats, mice or both.
What we recommend depends on three things: which rodent, what kind of building, and who is in it. That gives you baiting, trapping, proofing or a mix.
Lockable, tamper-resistant stations go on the runways we find, secured and out of reach, with trap placement where baiting isn't suitable.
The gaps, vents and service penetrations in use are pointed out, and we either quote to seal them or tell you how to.
Stations get checked and replenished, activity is logged, and the program is reduced once there is no more feeding.
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 held in tamper-resistant stations, fixed on the runways in use | Established activity in roof voids, subfloors and around the outside | Avoid where a dead rodent inside a cavity would cause odour |
| Trapping | Snap traps or enclosed traps placed along walls and runways and checked on schedule | Kitchens and pantries, food premises, and small indoor numbers | Only works if placement is right and the traps are checked regularly |
| Proofing | Gaps, vents, weep holes and pipe penetrations sealed with rodent-resistant materials | Every building, once the active population is under control | It will not clear rodents already inside, so it comes after treatment |
| Monitoring | Stations holding non-toxic blocks, read for gnawing and droppings | Strata buildings, businesses and homes close to reserves or waterways | Only really works as a scheduled, continuing service |
Why baiting often outperforms DIY snap traps in roof voids: read our explainer.
Where terraces share a roof void or wall cavity with the house next door - common through the Inner West and Eastern Suburbs - rodents travel between them freely. We concentrate on the roof void, the subfloor and the service penetrations.
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.
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.
Loading docks, pallet racking and ceiling spaces give rodents plenty of cover. Warehouse and office programs use perimeter stations and scheduled monitoring with reports.

Where droppings line the ducting and ceiling joists, that is the runway - and that is where the stations are placed.
Finding shredded insulation and nest material in the subfloor points to 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 skeleton of a rodent is far more flexible than it looks. If the skull fits, the animal follows, which is why the gap around a pipe penetration in a Kurraba Point wall is a genuine entry point rather than a detail.
Roof rats travel along branches and power lines and enter at the eaves. Cutting back the branch touching a Kurraba Point roof removes the bridge entirely.
Rodents stay where food is reliable. On a Kurraba Point property that is usually the compost, the fruit tree or the pet bowl rather than anything inside the house.
Rats, mice or a protected native? We confirm it on site before any bait goes down.
Stations are tamper-resistant and fixed down, sited clear of children, pets and wildlife.

Same-day attendance is usually available. Kurraba Point is about 3.1 km north-east of the CBD in the Lower North Shore, and we give you a firm arrival time rather than an all-day window.
The combination here is age and moisture. Older houses near the harbour rarely have sub-floor ventilation that still works, and rats and mice settle in what that leaves behind.
Older houses on sloping blocks, many with a lower level cut into the slope - that level is usually where we start.
Yes - freestanding homes, townhouses, apartments, rentals and business premises in Kurraba Point 2089 are all covered, with documentation suitable for an agent or a strata manager.
Yes. The products are registered for this use and applied at label rates, and placement keeps them away from where children and animals go. Let us know at booking about pets, fish tanks or anyone with asthma and we will plan the visit around it.
You do not normally need to leave. Anything requiring an empty room is short, and you will know about it before the work starts.
For a standard Kurraba Point home, one to two hours. We would rather tell you it will take longer up front than rush it.
Every general treatment carries a 6-month warranty. A return visit inside that period does not cost you anything.
All of them. Kurraba Point sits alongside Cremorne Point, Kirribilli, Neutral Bay and Milsons Point in our coverage, and they are serviced on the same schedule.
