Canberra Pest Control!

 Canberra Pest control now is in the high season the hot weather, drought and bush fires are bringing pests out in their numbers.

As a Canberra pest control professional company with over 30 years of combined experience, I really believe the public needs to be educated on what the expectations are when controlling pests.

You see, say you have cockroaches where there are 20-30 different varieties of species and we treat Australian cockroaches (black ones) in general pest control BUT if it’s German cockroaches sometimes they will require further treatment if it’s an infestation or in a commercial kitchen as they have a quick breeding cycle.

ENVIRONMENT

Some pests can be blown in with the wind like spiderlings, lumber or firewood stacked in piles attracts spiders, ants, and termites, trees too close to the house are easy to access to a property, outdoor furniture, toys, lawn not mowed, pets can transport pests and I know no one wants to hear this but its sometimes the lack of general housekeeping that attracts pests also.

KITCHEN TIPS

Leaving dishes on the sink, not rinsing plates off before placing in the dishwasher, crumbs on the floor, benchtops that are not wiped down and items in the pantry not properly stored with jars not wiped down after use, bins not emptied regularly or bin left too close to the door is a problem.

Those people who keep chickens and throw scraps into the run and pellets left in open containers this attracts rats and mice.

Pests love the kitchen as it has the pest’s main food source both in the domestic and commercial kitchens.

Here are a few tips that may help you detract pests from making a way to your kitchen.

SUMMARY
• dishes not left dirty in the sink or dishwasher
• sweep crumbs off floors
• wipe benches
• empty bins more regularly
• put plugs in the sink when not in use
• wipe over the pantry and all jars containing the sauce, keep items in glass containers NO open packets.
• Clean regular splashbacks, exhausts, wipe over stovetops

Any one of these environmental areas ignored can possibly cause pest problems.

As a Canberra pest control company,

we advise our clients on things we can see on the day that can possibly attract pests. As we only use quality chemicals that are applied following closely manufacturer’s directions we know will continue to safely and effectively keep killing pests for a long period of time but be aware we have no control over the environment.

Over the weekend I got a request to re-spray a whole property I asked why that would be required as we were only there 2 weeks prior and not enough time for the treatment to do its work and they replied, “I have insects everywhere!” Being alarmed at this question asked, “have you had 8-12 of anyone insect?” No, the reply was I only saw 1 (true story!).

As the number one priority, we will always keep the safety of property owners, families, pets and our staff by using environmentally safe and effective pest control methods.

If we can help you with any pest control problems please call our friendly Canberra Pest Control team on 0407 065 413.

Solutions to your Rodent problem

Rodent Problem in Canberra

It has been established that there are more than sixty species of rats in Australia, which occupy a wide range of the habitats across the country. Even though most of these are native species there are two rats (Black Rat and Brown Rat) which were introduced in Australia and have rapidly adjusted to Australian conditions. The Black rat which is the one that is more widespread and abundant is a commensal rodent and is commonly found in disturbed or degraded environments. This is the type of rat that is commonly spotted in cities and towns, and it is the one commonly responsible for the infestation of houses, sheds, warehouses and storage.

The Black rat which is the one that is more widespread and abundant is a commensal rodent and is commonly found in disturbed or degraded environments. This is the type of rat that is commonly spotted in cities and towns, and it is the one commonly responsible for the infestation of houses, sheds, warehouses and storage.

Rodent Problems

A lot of rats are known to primarily feed on seeds, followed by an herbivorous diet. Since rats are generally omnivores, they consume a range of food items depending on the availability. Human activities such as clearing unsuitable habitats and planting cereal and other food crops are some of the factors which normally increase the optimal habitat and food resources for rats. Both the local as well as introduced species of rats are known to breed and spread very quickly. They also commonly infest crops and food storages, and this may lead to huge economic damage. In Australia, the eruptions of rat infestations are normally not very easy to predict and the circumstances leading to infestations of crops are not fully understood. Due to this variability as well as the unpredictable occurrence of infestations, the control rodents can be difficult.

This is why an integrated pest management approach can be the best approach to get rid of rodents effectively. In many cases the very first clue of a serious rodent problem is normally by spotting their droppings on the kitchen counter, in kitchen drawers, cabinets, or the pantry. If one area of your property is infested, it’s normally very likely that the entire neighborhood is infested too. This is one of the reasons why rodents can be very difficult for a homeowner to control. They are usually a community problem. It ca be more effective to get rid of rodents if all the homeowners in a community work together to eliminate sources of food, water, and shelter. Rodents can be very persistent in their efforts to invade the home, but you can deal with them effectively if you know their capabilities.

Best Solution for your Rodent Problem in Canberra

A good professional pest controller will provide you with the best advice and techniques which you can easily implement on your own. Some of the major steps to eradicate rodents include:

  1. Good Sanitation Measures. Always ensure that surfaces in the home are clean so as to avoid rodents being attracted into the space by smells of food.
  2. Rodent Problem Proofing the Home. A good pest control expert can also look at your home for opportunities and rodent proof certain areas that may be not obvious or accessible to the homeowner.
  3. Poisons and Baits. There are cases where the best treatment to the existing populations of rats and mice in your home is through chemical treatments. This is especially when the infestation is very wide spread.

In case you have noticed any signs of rats or mice in your home, do not hesitate to act. At A1 Pest Control we have a great team of well-trained experts who will offer you the best solution for your rodent problem.

Canberra Termites Control: Get rid of termites from your home

/in , /by

Canberra Termites Control

Canberra Termites Control

Canberra Termites Control. There is no doubt that the Australian vegetation is very diverse and dynamic. Everyday there are trees which die and at the same time new trees regenerate. Because of the many fallen trees and the dropped limbs, there are also shed barks and leaves which create a layer of litter in many woodland areas. Within this litter there is normally an amazing creature known as a termite. Termites feed on this cellular material and in the process convert it into soil. It has been established that there are around 2,500 different species of termites that exist around the world, and in Australia there are 350 species, but it is only 30 of them that are regarded as pests.

 

Termites normally have colonies which are well organized similar in so many ways to that of ordinary ants. In addition to having a king and a queen, they also have workers that take care of the feeding of the colony and soldiers that normally look after the protection of the colony. In most of our homes, we have kind of recreated the bush, and for this reason termites find a very perfect habitat in such places.

 

Canberra Termites Control At A1 Pest Control we have a team of expert who have specialized in termite detection and control. We normally identify a tree that is suspected to house the termites, drill into the trunk of the tree and place a temperature probe into the cavity to identify the location of the nest. This method is effective since the royal chamber, where the queen resides surrounded by the nursery, normally has a constant temperature of about 34 degrees C with high humidity. The tree that are mostly affected by termite damage are the almond trees and gum trees because they live for a very long time and as a result accumulate a lot of dead wood and barks as they are growing.

 

Canberra Termites ControlIn order to eradicate the termite nest, we normally use a controlling agent that is pumped into the nest and the hole sealed. We then lay a number of termite traps on your property in case there is still suspicion of the presence of termite activity in the area.We will then inspect these traps regularly so as to see if there is any termite activity. If we detect the presence of termites, we will use a large bait box that we normally install so as to concentrate the termite numbers. We normally put cells of wood in the bait box that put in place for about eight weeks, after which the entire colony is treated with a range of contact insecticides.

Get Canberra Termites Control at A1 Pest Control Canberra.

Even though you may be vigilant and also have put in place termite detection mechanisms, these destructive pests are still able to enter your home. One of the most visible indications may be slight discoloration of the surface of a wall, which is likely followed by warping in case it is wood paneling that is used for the wall lining.

Since termites are tropical insects, they normally create their own high humidity wherever they live. The damage caused by termites can be very huge and this is the reason why you should ensure they do not get a home in your property. Professional help is the best solution to termite problems since getting rid of them can be a very difficult process. In case you suspect you have a pest problem in your home, contact A1 Pest Control for Canberra Termites Control and we will act immediately.
