Important Facts About A Current Pest License

The head technician for Micropest Pest Control Sydney is Gerard Dallow; he has over thirty-five years of providing pest solutions for thousands of pest infestations. Ten years in South Australia and twenty-five on the Sydney's North Shore, C.B.D of Sydney, Inner West, Eastern Suburbs, Northern Beaches, and Hills districts.

A significant difference between the licensing today and thirty-five years ago is getting a full pest license. It used to take three years to complete. Today you can buy a franchise, and a trainer can give you a permit within seven days.

When I started, I had to study at TAFE and spend the allocated time being trained by someone with a full license which was three years. I was very fortunate as the person who taught me was in his late sixties and had been in the industry for over forty years. He was the number one trouble shooter for Flick Adelaide for ten years. I learned a lot more than most, but he did treat me like an apprentice and a general dogsbody.

When you first start with the pest industry, you go through the motions. You don't overthink what you are doing. But like a fine wine, a good pest controller, after five or so years, starts to think about why and where they are spraying. After spending ten years in the pest industry, you're an expert, and you can do it in your sleep. Thirty-five years in the industry, and you're at the top of the food chain.

It is rare to have a pest tech come to your house with over thirty-five years of experience. So, when you telephone Micropest pest control Sydney, you will get an operator who has been in the industry for more than thirty-five years to carry out your pest service.

Differentiation Between Past and Current Pest Management Treatments.

In a nutshell, the main fundamental difference between pest management in the past, and current methods, is all about repellent and non-repellent chemicals. When I first started in the industry, all the pest treatments we used were very cheap, toxic, environmentally unfriendly, smelly, messy, repellent and just outright dangerous. Some are even believed to be carcinogenic. The attitude was the more potent and the smellier the chemical was, and the more chemical applied, the better. Customers complained if there was not enough toxic smell or swimming pools of chemicals left on the floors, old school.

The current modern quality pest control treatments are little or low odour, non-repellent, low toxicity, expensive, stainless, and most importantly, environmentally friendly. Environmentally friendly in the sense that they don't stay in the environment for an extended period. Unfortunately, most effective pest treatments have an element of toxicity but in increments relative to the target pest and not to babies and pets. Treatments are applied more strategically, reducing the amount of volume. Today if the pest treatment applied smells, the customer complains. But be warned, many cowboys out there will use highly toxic cheap chemicals to save a few dollars.

What is going on recently In Sydney?

Summer is over and autumn is here but someone didnt tell the weather gods to turn down the temperature. Apparenly we are going to have avery warm autumn and winter. Warm winters generally increase termite activty, spiders and cockroaches.Interesting times.

1) If you hear noises in the roof, do not delay investigating. Rats do like to gnaw on electrical wires and have been known to cause fires. After the rats have been controlled, if you wash your house with a diluted solution of Chlorine, it will remove the pheromone tracks from the rats making it less likely for a rat re-infestation.

2) Cut trees away from the roof of your house, making it more difficult for possums and rats to gain entry to your roof cavity. Also, install downpipe filters to stop rats from climbing up the downpipes to access the roof.

3) Any signs of German cockroaches in your house or apartment, please do not spray them as you will spread them throughout your abode. Instead, ring a professional, and they will bait them with a cockroach bait called Maxforce Gold.

4) If you go on holiday, please check your hotel room for bed bugs before staying in the room. If found, ask to move to another room if not change hotels. When you get home and you had bedbugs on holiday unpack your luggage outside when you arrive home and put in the dryer on a high heat for 30 min or a chest freezer for 2 days.Never store your luggage in your bedroom.

5) If you haven't had a termite inspection for a while, it is strongly recommended to get one at least once a year. Not only is it necessary, but it will give you peace of mind.

6) As soon as you see a male Brush Turkey in your yard, Rabbits or Bandicoots. Run down to Bunnings and pick up a couple of bags of the smelliest dynamic lifter you can find and spread it evenly over your lawn and gardens, and sometimes if you are lucky, the smell sends them next door. They all have very sensitive noses. Rake up all the leaves starting July to November, so the male bush turkey has nothing to make the nest.

7) If you find termites in the garden or house, ring a termite control expert promptly. Termites cause considerable damage. Do not spray termites. Leave them alone until a professional can evaluate them; otherwise, it might take a lot longer to exterminate them and cost you considerably more.

8) If you find wasps in the garden or house, don't delay ring us promptly. Bees and wasps are dangerous and should be treated by trained professionals.

Why has Sydney So Many Pests?

The abundance of pests in Sydney is due to several factors. The warm, humid climate provides an ideal breeding ground for many pests, while the city's dense population makes it easier for these pests to spread.

Additionally, nearby parks and gardens which there are many around Sydney can provide homes for various species of termites, Possums, bush turkeys, birds, bats and other animals that may carry parasites or diseases on their fur or feathers. These creatures may also introduce new viruses and bacteria into the area that further exacerbates the pest problem in Sydney. Finally, construction projects can create habitats suitable for invaders like ants, rats or bedbugs which can quickly multiply out of control if left unchecked by a professional Sydney-based pest service provider.

The Five Most Common Pests in Sydney

Sydney is known for its stunning scenery and pleasant weather, with mild winters and hot, humid summers. However, these conditions also make it a paradise for pests. If you're living in Sydney, scheduling an annual pest control treatment is a wise decision to keep your home safe and comfortable.

1. Cockroaches

Cockroaches top the list as the most frequent request for pest control in Sydney. The German cockroach is the main culprit, closely followed by the Australian cockroach. These pests can be dealt with using residual pest treatments and baits.

2. Spiders

Spiders are the second most common pest problem. The huntsman spider reigns supreme, with the notorious redback spider not far behind. Effective control involves residual pest treatments and smart building solutions to keep these creepy crawlies at bay.

3. Termites

Termites are not only a common issue; they're also the most costly to eradicate. Coptotermes acinaciformis and Schedorhinotermes species are particularly problematic. Control methods include residual termiticides, baiting, dusting, foaming, and physical barriers.

4. Rats

Rats, particularly the roof rat and the Norway rat, are prevalent nuisances in Sydney. Baiting is a common and effective method to control these rodents and prevent them from wreaking havoc in your home.

5. Ants

Ants round out the list as a frequent pest control request, with black house ants and carpenter ants being the most common species. These can be controlled using baits, dusts, and residual pest treatments to ensure they don't take over your space. Stay proactive and keep these pests at bay by investing in regular pest control treatments, ensuring a more comfortable and pest-free living environment.
