Residential and Commercial Pest Control in Queanbeyan

If left unchecked, ants in Queanbeyan can be problematic. Ants are renowned for invading kitchens and undermining building structures (by digging around them). Queanbeyan is home to black house ants, white-footed house ants, Argentine ants, sugar / carpenter ants, bull ants, and meat ants.

The disease-carrying cockroach is nocturnal and likes to frequent kitchens and bathrooms. It breeds throughout the year, but more so in the warmer months. Cockroaches found in Queanbeyan include the Australian cockroach, German cockroach, Oriental cockroach, and American cockroach.

Although protected by law, possums can be a pest sometimes, especially when they take up residence in a roof cavity. Queanbeyan Pest Control Group provides possum removal services in the Queanbeyan region. We “catch and release” brushtail, ringtail, and mountain brushtail possums.

Rats and mice are scavengers that enter buildings for food, water, and shelter (particularly in winter). Common rats and mice found in Queanbeyan include the black rat, brown rat, house mouse, and field mouse. Rats and mice can carry dangerous diseases, including leptospirosis.

Two highly dangerous spiders live in Queanbeyan: the Eastern Mouse Spider and the Redback. In addition, our pest controllers come across the odd Funnel-web. Other nasty spiders (particularly to children) are the Wolf Spider, Black House Spider, Huntsman, and White-tailed Spider.

Unfortunately, termites are a fact of life in Queanbeyan. These ancient creatures love to eat the cellulose found in wood, plants, paper, cardboard, and cotton fibres. The team at Queanbeyan Pest Control Group specialises in termite control solutions for the Queanbeyan region.

Wasps are present in many parts of Queanbeyan. The European wasp is arguably the most dangerous and aggressive one (it stings more than once). Queanbeyan residents should also be cautious around social wasps (yellow jackets), common paper wasps, and Asian paper wasps.
