What pests are common in Geelong?
Geelong homes meet a wide range of pests because the city runs from older inner suburbs and river valleys to new estates on the northern edge and coastal towns on the Bellarine. Ants are the most common call, with trails in kitchens and bathrooms and nests under paving and lawns, and coastal brown ants are a particular problem where lawns and pavers sit close together. Rodents move into sheds, garages and roof voids as nights cool, and possums use older roofs in streets with mature trees. Spiders gather around eaves, garages and decks from spring, and cockroaches appear in kitchens and drains in warm weather. Bees settle in walls and eaves in spring. Holiday homes in coastal suburbs can sit empty for weeks, which gives animals time to move in unnoticed.
What do Geelong homes look like, and how does that shape the pest problem?
Older brick and weatherboard homes in Newtown, Geelong West, Belmont and Highton often have timber subfloors, gaps at the eaves and mature trees overhanging the roof, which suits possums and rodents. Newer estates around Corio, Lara and Armstrong Creek have slab homes with pavers, garden beds against the walls and open land nearby, which suits ants and spiders and brings rodents in when paddocks are cleared. Properties close to the Barwon River, creeks and reserves see more rodents and possums, and coastal homes on the Bellarine see more coastal brown ants and more empty-house problems. Tell us the age of the house and where you see the pest, because that tells us where to look first, and whether the nest is likely to be in the roof, the subfloor, the paving or the lawn. A possum in an older roof and a nest under new pavers need very different treatment.
