Pest Control Services
Rodent Control Sydney
Rat & mouse control for Sydney homes and businesses — lockable bait stations, internal monitoring and full proofing advice.
Why Sydney Homes Choose Redback for Rodent Control
Rodents cause more property damage than any other pest — chewed wiring, contaminated insulation and ruined stored goods. Sydney's three main culprits are roof rats (most common), Norway rats (drains, basements, commercial sites) and house mice (kitchens, pantries). Each one needs a different baiting and proofing approach. Our rodent program combines internal monitoring, external lockable bait stations, and a written proofing report telling you exactly where they're getting in.
Every treatment is delivered by a fully licensed, NSW EPA-registered Redback technician — never a subcontractor. We've been protecting Sydney homes and businesses for over 30 years and carry $20M public liability cover.
Booking is easy: get a fixed written price up front, choose a time that suits you (including Saturdays), and receive a digital service report with everything we used, treated and recommend. Same-week service is standard across Sydney, the Central Coast and Wollongong.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a rodent treatment take?
Most residential rodent treatments take 45–90 minutes depending on the size of the home and the level of activity. We'll confirm the timing when we book the job.
Is the treatment safe for kids and pets?
Yes. We use only APVMA-registered, low-toxicity products applied by licensed technicians. Treated areas are typically safe to re-enter once dry — usually within 1–2 hours.
Will I see dead rodents after the treatment?
It's normal to see increased activity for the first 7–14 days as the product flushes them out of harbourage. After that, activity drops off sharply.
Do you offer a warranty?
Standard rodent programs include a 6-month warranty plus optional ongoing maintenance servicing for high-risk sites.
Do you charge a call-out fee?
No. Quotes are fixed in advance, with no hidden call-out or travel fees across Sydney metro, Central Coast and Wollongong.
