Postcode 2770 covers Mount Druitt and the streets immediately around it. At about 37.6 km west of the CBD it falls in the Blacktown & Mount Druitt, where we have vans out daily. We cover Mount Druitt on scheduled runs through the Blacktown & Mount Druitt, and we will give you a firm time rather than a window.
Our Mount Druitt work takes in the streets by Mount Druitt station and Fred Cowpe Reserve, through to Westfield Mt Druitt at the other end.
Mount Druitt is in the Blacktown City area, and we cover Whalan, Rooty Hill and Oxley Park on the same runs - handy if you own more than one property or your rodent problem has come from next door. On a newer estate the houses are near-identical and tightly spaced, which means a problem in one tends to turn up in the ones either side.
Around Mount Druitt the pattern is fairly consistent: newer homes on small blocks where next door has the same problem. Tell us which it is on the phone and we will come prepared for it.
All of 2770 falls inside the area we service.
We confirm your slot the day before and arrive at a stated time. Whalan and Rooty Hill sit on the same run, so earlier appointments in 2770 come up regularly.
The maths is the argument for acting early. Treating two mice costs a fraction of treating the thirty they become.
A new object in a rat's territory gets ignored, sometimes for the best part of a week. Mice do the opposite and investigate immediately. The two behaviours need different expectations and different schedules.
Noise helps too. Mice scurry light and fast in wall cavities; rats are heavier and tend to run along ceiling joists. In Mount Druitt roofs we hear both.
Three introduced rodents cause almost every rodent job in Sydney. A fourth, the native bush rat, needs to be recognised and left alone.
Slender and an excellent climber, with large thin ears and a tail longer than the body. It lives above you - roof voids, wall cavities, palms and thick vegetation. Rat control →
Bigger and heavier, blunt in the face, tail shorter than the body. Everything it does is at ground level - burrows in the subfloor, the drains, the compost, under the slab.
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 | Capsule-shaped and clearly bigger, gathered along a runway | Rice-grain pellets spread about widely, drawers and cupboards included |
| Noise | Louder thumping or dragging overhead after dark | Rapid, light scratching and scurrying within walls and ceilings |
| Where you find signs | Roof void, eaves, subfloor, garden beds, under decks | Kitchen, pantry, behind the fridge and stove, bottom drawers |
| Entry gaps | Around 12 mm or larger, and they can gnaw it bigger | Around 6 mm, roughly the width of a pencil |
| Damage | Cabling, downpipes and irrigation gnawed, and fruit taken in the garden | Packets chewed open, food nibbled, paper shredded for nesting |
| How they behave | Suspicious of anything new, so a station takes time to get visits | Inquisitive - they check a new object quickly, but only feed a little at a time |
| Grease and rub marks | Dark marks where they rub along beams, rafters and entry holes | Faint marks, not often seen |

NSW Health lists leptospirosis, lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus, rat bite fever and gastro infections such as salmonellosis among diseases linked to rodents.
Rodents have to gnaw to wear their teeth down, and roof-void cabling, gas lines and water pipes are the usual casualties.
Contamination is not negotiable: urine and droppings on surfaces and packaging mean the food is thrown out and the area disinfected.
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.
Inspection covers roof void, subfloor, kitchen and perimeter. Droppings, rub marks, nests and runways tell us whether it is rats, mice or both.
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.
Tamper-resistant lockable stations are fixed on the runways we located, out of reach, and traps go where baiting is not appropriate.
You get shown every gap, vent and penetration they are using, with a quote to seal them - or instructions if you would rather do it yourself.
We return to check and refill the stations, record what activity there is, and wind the program back once feeding has stopped.
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 and enclosed traps along the walls and runways, on a checking schedule | Small indoor populations, kitchens, pantries and food businesses | Depends on correct placement and regular checking |
| Proofing | Gaps, vents, weep holes and service penetrations sealed with rodent-resistant material | All properties, after active rodents are under control | Does nothing about rodents already indoors - it follows the treatment |
| 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.
Shared roof voids and wall cavities are normal in Inner West and Eastern Suburbs terraces, and rodents use them to move between houses. The work centres on the roof void, subfloor and the gaps where services come in.
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.
Loading docks, pallet racking and ceiling spaces give rodents plenty of cover. Warehouse and office programs use perimeter stations and scheduled monitoring with reports.

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.
The feeding rate at each station tells us whether numbers are falling and when scaling back is appropriate.
A rodent problem is a food problem. Around Mount Druitt 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.
Flattened or tunnelled insulation in a Mount Druitt ceiling is nesting, not storm damage. It is also where droppings and urine accumulate, which is the contamination issue.
People seal the obvious holes and miss the ones that matter. Six millimetres is enough for a mouse; twelve for a rat, and it will gnaw a smaller one open. We walk the outside of a Mount Druitt property looking at exactly that.
Identification precedes any bait. Rats, mice and protected native rats each need a different answer.

On a newer estate the boundaries are close and the landscaping is young, so rats and mice move between properties along fence lines with very little to stop them.
Recent estate housing - slab on ground, narrow side passages, young landscaping. The perimeter does most of the work.
We do. A lot of our Mount Druitt work is rentals and strata, so the report, the products used and the areas treated are all recorded in writing for whoever needs them.
It is, as long as you follow what we tell you on the day - usually keeping off treated surfaces for a couple of hours. Let us know at booking about young children, pets or an aquarium.
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.
Between one and two hours covers the majority of jobs. We do not book so tightly that a technician has to cut a job short.
Every general treatment carries a 6-month warranty. A return visit inside that period does not cost you anything.
We cover the whole of Mount Druitt, from the streets around Westfield Mt Druitt out to the suburb boundary and on into Whalan.
