• Pests

  • Wasps

    The European Wasp is now established in Melbourne, and will in time throughout much of Australia. The English wasp has been known in Melbourne for some time and has similar habits to the European Wasp. Separation of these two species is normally beyond the ability of pest controllers and not relevant in selecting control options.

  • Ants

    Ants are social insects that live more or less in permanent nests. Colony sizes vary enormously and are mostly located in soil, wood, and among rocks. In relation to their feeding habits, ants may be predators, perhaps with specific prey (eg. termites), or scavengers, which again may have a specific diet (eg. the honeydew or sugary excretions of plant sucking bugs), or a general one.

  • Cockroaches

    Cockroaches are close relatives of termites. They represent a primitive and highly successful group of insects whose origins extend back at least 300 million years. Fossil evidence suggests that little change in their general body form has occurred since that time.

  • Bees

    The first honey bees (Apis mellifera) to be introduced to Australia were brought to NSW in 1822. Because of the abundance of nectar and pollen sources provided by the native eucalypts, they soon became widespread across the country. This is the bee species most commonly encountered by pest control operators in Melbourne.

  • Spiders

    Spiders have eight jointed legs and their bodies are divided into two sections; cephalothorax and abdomen. The cephalothorax is a fused head and thorax region. Palps are located in the front and are often mistaken for an extra pair of legs (pedipalps). Their function is sensory, and in the male they are also associated with reproduction. Legs and body may be heavily or sparsely covered with hairs. Although the general appearance of spiders varies, the basic structure remains the same.

  • Silverfish

    In Australia, there are 28 described species of silverfish, and about five of these species have successfully invaded buildings. Silverfish are agile, fast-running, scale covered, wingless insects.

  • Termite

    In Melbourne, there are two main types of pest termites: Dampwood Termites and Subterranean Termites (Coptotermes spp.). Both species are timber attacking species, with the latter the more destructive, because it attacks dry timber as well as damp, whereas the former attacks only damp wood (as the name suggests) and is seldom found in dry wood in well ventilated and clean areas.

  • Fleas

    Fleas are small specialized parasitic insects, having some 2,380 species known worldwide and only about 90 species represented in Australia.

  • Rats and Mice

    Rats and mice are serious pests of humans, and they can, in some cases, be difficult to control.These animals are well adapted to living in very close association with humans, sharing their food and shelter.

  • Bed Bugs

    The bedbug is of widespread distribution around the world, but in earlier times it was much more frequently encountered than it is nowadays. Historically, they are associated with the sleeping quarters of hotels, taverns, inns, hostels and other dormitory type facilities. In domestic residences, an infestation is usually located mainly in bedrooms.
