Before Your Arana Hills Pest Treatment
When Arana Hills households ring us, it is usually after the third or fourth cockroach of the week, or a trail of ants that keeps coming back however often it is wiped up.
There is no need to move furniture or leave for the day. These four steps are all we ask.
-
1
Leave the evidence
Skip the supermarket spray for a day or two. Trails, droppings and webs show the technician where to work.
-
2
Open up the wet areas
Clear the cupboards under the kitchen, bathroom and laundry sinks so baits can go along the pipe gaps and hinges.
-
3
Pack away food and pet bowls
Benchtop food, toothbrushes and pet bowls go into a cupboard. Cover any fish tank and switch off its pump for the visit.
-
4
Show us the way up and under
Make sure we can reach the manhole, the garage and the space under the house if it is raised.
-
Then call us on 07 3916 7673. Answered day and night, with same day visits on most days.

What Arana Hills Households Tell Us When They Call
Pests keep to the dark during the day, so the first clues are usually small. These are the ones we hear about most.
"Cockroaches run when the light goes on"
Small ones that live in the kitchen, or big ones that wander in from gardens, drains and the subfloor. The treatment covers both.
"Ants march in before every storm"
Black house ants and coastal brown ants come inside looking for food and dry ground when the weather turns.
"The webs are back by the weekend"
Black house spiders, redbacks and orb weavers rebuild around the eaves, windows and outdoor furniture very quickly.
"Silver insects in the linen cupboard"
Silverfish chew paper, wallpaper paste and stored clothing, and like dark, humid cupboards.
"Something is moving in the ceiling"
Scratching after dark usually means rodents or a possum. We check the roof void during the visit and tell you what we find.
"We moved in and the last owners never treated"
A new-to-you home is the best time for a first treatment, before you unpack into the cupboards.

Why Pests Thrive Around Arana Hills
South East Queensland pests breed for most of the year, which is why a yearly treatment is the minimum we suggest for Arana Hills homes.
Local Notes for Arana Hills
We look after homes and businesses in Arana Hills, postcode 4054, about 10 km from the Brisbane CBD in North West Brisbane. Low-set brick homes and split-level timber homes from the 1970s make up most streets, often with a pool, a garden shed and a deck facing the bush.
Termites, possums and general pests are the main jobs here. The bush edge brings more spiders, wasps and the odd bee swarm than suburbs closer in.
Each Arana Hills treatment is planned around the home in front of us: how it is built, what grows around it and what you have been seeing. Split-level homes in Arana Hills often have a hidden step in the slab; keep garden beds and mulch well below the weep holes along that wall.
What to watch for around Arana Hills
- Termites tracking under split-level slabs and decks
- Possums in roof voids above bush-facing rooms
- Paper wasps under eaves and pergolas
- Black house spiders around windows and sheds

Long, humid summers
Cockroaches, ants and spiders breed for most of the year in South East Queensland and hit their peak between November and March.
Rain pushes them indoors
Summer storms flood ant nests and drains, and the survivors head for the dry space under your sink and behind your fridge.
Gardens next to the walls
Garden beds, mulch, stored timber and outdoor furniture give pests shelter right beside the house, and homes near Arana Hills Plaza, Dawson Parade and Patricks Road have more of it.

How busy each month usually is for this service.
What is at stake
The Cost of Waiting
In this climate a handful of pests in October can be a houseful by Christmas.
Germs on the bench
Cockroaches walk through drains and bins, then across food areas. Their droppings also trigger asthma.
Bites around the yard
Redbacks under outdoor furniture and wasps under the eaves are a real risk to children.
Fast breeding
German cockroaches and ants multiply quickly once the weather warms up.
Sprays push them deeper
Surface sprays kill a few and drive the rest further into walls and cupboards.

The inspection
Where We Look During a Arana Hills Inspection
Before anything is treated, the technician works through each of these areas. In Arana Hills the yard and the way the home meets the ground tell us a lot.
Roof void
Droppings, nesting, chewed cables and the gaps rodents and possums use.
Subfloor or slab edge
Mud leads, damp soil, stumps, weep holes and anything stored against the walls.
Kitchen
Behind the fridge and dishwasher, cupboard hinges and pipe gaps.
Bathrooms and laundry
Floor wastes, vanity cupboards and the damp corners silverfish like.
Bedrooms and living areas
Skirtings, window frames, wardrobes and built-in cupboards.
Garage and shed
Boxes, stored timber and dark corners where spiders and rodents settle.
Outside walls
Eaves, meter box, window frames, downpipes and webs.
The yard
Trees touching the roof, compost, fruit trees and garden beds against the house.
Pricing
What Pest Control Costs in Arana Hills
A small unit and a large high-set house with a granny flat are very different jobs. These four things decide the price.
What sets the price
-
The size of the home. Bedrooms, levels, subfloor, garage and sheds all add time on site.
-
The pests involved. Everyday pests are covered by the general treatment. German cockroaches, rodents and termites are priced separately.
-
How long it has been going. A problem left for a season or two may need extra baiting or a second visit.
-
Home or business. Cafes, shops, offices and strata common areas are priced per site.
You get an upfront price once the technician has seen the job, and that is the price you pay. No hidden costs.

Questions
Pest Control Arana Hills FAQs
What people ask us most before they book.
Ask us something else
How soon can you treat my Arana Hills home?
On most days we can book a same day visit in Arana Hills. Call us in the morning for the best chance of a same day time, or send the form and we will call you back with the earliest slot.
What pests are most common in Arana Hills?
Termites, possums and general pests are the main jobs here. The bush edge brings more spiders, wasps and the odd bee swarm than suburbs closer in.
What should Arana Hills homeowners look out for?
The things we find most often around Arana Hills are termites tracking under split-level slabs and decks, possums in roof voids above bush-facing rooms, paper wasps under eaves and pergolas and black house spiders around windows and sheds. Split-level homes in Arana Hills often have a hidden step in the slab; keep garden beds and mulch well below the weep holes along that wall.
Is the treatment safe for my kids and pets?
We use products registered for use in homes and apply them into cracks, crevices and outside surfaces rather than open areas. Keep people and pets off treated surfaces until they are dry, usually a couple of hours, and cover any fish tank before we arrive.
How much does pest control cost in Arana Hills?
It depends on the size of the home, the pests involved and how far they have spread. The technician inspects first and gives you the price before any work starts. There are no hidden costs.
How often should a Arana Hills home be treated?
Once a year suits most homes, ideally in spring. Homes close to bushland, creeks or water, and homes that have had heavy pest problems before, often do better with a treatment every six months.
Why are there more cockroaches after the treatment?
For the first week or two that is normal. The products flush cockroaches out of their hiding spots before they die, so you see more of them for a short time. If you still see live ones after about three weeks, call us.
Does a general treatment include termites?
No. Termites need a timber pest inspection and, if they are found, their own treatment. We can book an inspection for the same visit.
