Before you ring
What changes the cost?
Rat or mouse, how many, how deep into the roof or under the floor the nest is, and how many bait stations the runs need. The look and the quote are free.
Can it wait?
A warm roof near food is a home they won’t leave on their own, and winter brings more of them inside. The longer they stay, the more droppings, runs and chewed wiring there are to deal with.
What happens on the visit?
Stu goes up into the roof space and under the floor with a torch, finds the runs and the nest, sets the bait stations and shows you where they’re getting in.

Rats and mice top the list. When paddocks turn into streets, the rodents living in them look for fresh cover, and a new garage, a ceiling space or the cavity behind a kitchen unit suits them well. Droppings by the back door, gnawed packets in the pantry or scratching in the wall after dark all tell Stu where to start. Whether it's a ship rat in the roof, a Norway rat under the floor or mice in the pantry, he sorts out which of them you've got and treats the nest, not just the runs. Then he checks back that the job has worked.
Cockroaches are the next call. In a modern kitchen the German cockroach hides behind the fridge, the oven and the dishwasher, close to warmth, and that's where Stu treats. American cockroaches prefer the damp, so drains and laundries get a look too. He treats the breeding spots rather than spraying the open floor, and calls in again to check.
New homes bring outdoor work too. Ant trails come in along the slab edge and up through the pantry, spiders build in the eaves and around window frames, and wasps set up in a bank or a hedge over summer. Nests and trails both get treated, inside and out, by Stu and the team. Homeowners, landlords and the businesses around Tauranga Crossing all start with a free quote, and a business can add regular visits with paperwork for its food checks. Landlords can have a house treated between tenants, and new owners can have one checked before the furniture goes in.

Pyes Pa: lakes, reserves and paddocks next door
Pyes Pa is a southern suburb of the city, taking in The Lakes, Cheyne Road and the TECT All Terrain Park, and it has grown quickly. The Lakes was built around man-made parks and lakes, with 20 km of cycle and walking paths and more than 30 reserves and open spaces, and a 2.5 km path network links the rest of the suburb. Lakes and waterways draw rats as surely as they draw walkers: rats settle close to people and water, and the Norway rat swims well.
Tauriko started out as 'Taurico', named after the Tauranga Rimu Company, and is now home to the Tauranga Crossing shopping centre. Past the last houses there's open country. Where paddocks are built on, mice and rats lose their cover and move to the nearest shelter. Mice favour overgrown ground, so an untidy back corner on a new section is worth clearing before it turns into a nursery. A house by a reserve or a lake gets checked from the subfloor up, because a Norway rat comes in low.
Tips and questions for Pyes Pa
- Backing onto a reserve or a lake? Keep the compost bin lidded and pick up fallen fruit. Food left out close to the water draws rats from the bank towards your back door.
- Spider webs round the windows of a new home? Book an outside spray. Stu treats the eaves, window frames and garage door tracks, where spiders shelter, and the quote comes first, free.
- Building leftovers stacked by the fence? Move offcuts, packaging and spare pavers off the ground. Mice nest in that kind of clutter, and Stu finds the ones that have already moved in.

Questions from Pyes Pa
Do you cover The Lakes and Tauriko as well as Pyes Pa?
Yes. All three are part of Stu's patch, for homes, landlords and businesses alike. Quotes are free.
Our house is brand new. Why have we got mice?
Mice need only a gap the size of a coin, and even a new house has a few where pipes and cables come in. Stu finds how they're getting in and where they're nesting, treats them there, and explains what he's found as he goes.
What customers say
