Pest Control Murwillumbah

Pest control in Murwillumbah

Murwillumbah is the main town in the Tweed Valley, sitting on the Tweed River with Wollumbin (Mount Warning) in the background. In town you've got older houses on the hills and streets around the shops, and once you head out there's cane fields, farms and rural blocks.

The river, the paddocks and the warm, wet summers all add up to a lot of pest activity. Rats and mice live happily in cane and sheds, spiders love the old timber and outbuildings, and cockroaches come up from drains and gardens.

It's a bit of a drive from the coast, but it's still part of our area, and you'll get the same technician from the quote to the treatment.

Common pests in Murwillumbah

• Rats and mice: coming in from the cane and paddocks, especially after harvest or when the weather cools down.
• Spiders: redbacks in sheds, under tank stands and around old timber, and huntsmen in the house.
• Cockroaches: big ones from drains and gardens, and German cockroaches in kitchens once they get a hold.
• Ants: trailing in from the garden, especially before and after summer storms.
• Fleas: from farm dogs, cats and other animals around the property.
• Silverfish: in older houses, stored boxes and wardrobes that don't get opened much.

In the valley, the wet season is when cockroaches and ants are at their worst. Rodents often move closer to houses and sheds after the cane is cut, and through the cooler months.

Farms and rural blocks

On a farm or rural block, the house is only one part of it. Sheds, machinery, feed and stored hay are where rats and mice set up, and from there they move into the house when it suits them.

We can treat the house and whichever outbuildings you want covered, and we'll put rodent control in the spots where it will actually do something. We'll also be straight with you: on a rural property new rodents can always turn up, so keeping feed sealed and tidying up old junk piles helps a lot.

Tell us roughly what's on the property when you ring, and we'll give you a fixed price for exactly what you want done.
