Common Pests in Somerville
Somerville blends new housing estates with market gardens, orchards and paddocks, and that mix keeps our technicians busy. Rats and mice move from farmland and feed sheds into nearby homes, while spiders and ants thrive in the semi-rural gardens.
Newer estates off Eramosa Road often see termites tracking in from surrounding bushland and old fence lines, and possums take to roof spaces near established trees.
Rodents
Market gardens, feed sheds and chicken runs around Somerville push rats and mice toward houses, where they nest in roofs and chew through wiring.
Rats, Mice and Rodent Control →
Termites
New estates built close to paddocks, bushland and old fence lines give termites hidden pathways into homes, often through subfloors and garden retaining walls.
Termite Inspection →
Spiders
Semi-rural blocks and leafy gardens bring redback, huntsman and white-tail spiders around sheds, verandahs and children's play areas throughout the warmer months.
Spider Control →
Ants
Warm weather sends ants from garden beds and lawns straight into Somerville kitchens and pantries, particularly on newer estates with fresh landscaping.
Ant Control →
Possums
Established trees near the recreation reserve and older streets let possums slip into roof cavities, where their noise and mess quickly become a problem.

Somerville Pest Control FAQs
I live on a Somerville estate near paddocks, am I more at risk of termites?+
Homes built close to paddocks, bushland and old fence lines do face higher termite pressure, since colonies travel underground looking for timber. A yearly inspection is smart. Call +61 459 372 796 and we will check your subfloor, fences and garden.
How do I stop rats coming in from the surrounding farms?+
Rural Somerville rats often follow feed sheds, compost and fruit trees toward houses. We seal entry points, set secure baiting where needed and advise on tidying food sources. Keeping sheds and bins sealed makes your home far less inviting.
Can you remove possums from my roof in Somerville?+
Yes. We locate their entry points, help them move out and seal the gaps so they cannot return, all within the rules that protect possums. If you hear thumping at night in an older Somerville home, call us early before nesting starts.
