Pest advice
Identification, realistic costs, seasonal timing, safety around pets and children, and what treatments actually involve. No filler — these are the answers we give on jobs every week.
Seasonal
Auckland's pest problems run on a predictable annual cycle. Knowing which month brings which pest is the cheapest prevention there is.
Rentals & Property
One of the most-argued questions in NZ tenancy. The answer turns on when the problem started and what caused it — here is how it usually breaks down.
Cockroaches
Only one of Auckland's common cockroaches breeds indoors and spreads through a building. Telling it apart from the harmless wanderers changes the whole treatment.
Ants
Argentine ants do not behave like other ants. Spraying a trail can split the colony and make the problem measurably worse. Here's what works instead.
Wasps
Three wasp species account for nearly every Auckland call-out, and they need different handling. Two build hidden nests that can hold thousands of workers.
Fleas
Flea bites in a pet-free home are surprisingly common in Auckland, and there are only a handful of explanations. Most of them are fixable.
Safety
The honest answer: modern treatments are low-risk when applied correctly, and the risk comes almost entirely from how a product is used rather than what it is.
Prevention
Rodents move indoors on a schedule. Six or seven hours of work in March and April prevents most of the problems we get called to in June.
Safety
It depends entirely on the treatment. Some jobs need nobody out at all; others need a few hours. Here is what to expect before you book time off work.
Cockroaches
In an apartment building, German cockroaches are a building problem wearing a unit-sized disguise. Here is how to get it resolved properly.
Rodents
By the time you see a rat in daylight, the problem is well established. These are the earlier signals — and what each one tells you about scale.
