Families in Richards call us when rats start turning up where they shouldn't. We find where they are coming from and treat that spot, so your home stays comfortable while we work.

Richards sits about 44 km north-west of the Sydney CBD, within the Penrith council area. Many homes here are brick family homes, new estates and semi-rural properties, and each style gives rats its own hiding spots.

Small problems are easier and cheaper to fix. If you have started noticing rats, an early visit usually means a lighter treatment.

Rats around Richards

Building work around Richards disturbs burrows and pushes rats into new homes and garages.

Chicken coops and feed bins on larger Richards blocks attract rats all year.

Between Angus and Gables, Richards shares the same local pest patterns, which helps us plan the right treatment.

We time treatments with Sydney's seasons in mind, so they are working when rats are most active.

How to tell you have rats

  • Dark rub marks along beams and entry points
  • Chewed fruit, packaging or garden produce
  • Scratching or running in the ceiling after dark
  • Holes dug beside the shed, compost or chicken coop
  • Dark droppings around 1–2 cm long

What your visit includes

  • Roof void, sub-floor, garage and yard inspection
  • Locked, tamper-resistant bait stations fixed in place
  • Traps instead of baits where you prefer or where pets are a concern
  • A written list of entry points and how to close them
  • A follow-up visit to check activity

The steps, from first call to follow-up

  1. Inspect

    We trace runways, droppings and gnaw marks back to how rats are getting in.

  2. Control

    Locked stations or traps go where rats travel, away from children and pets.

  3. Seal

    We show you which gaps to block, or arrange proofing.

  4. Confirm

    We come back to make sure activity has stopped.

Questions about rat control in Richards

How soon can someone come out?
Most weeks, yes. Richards visits fit around our regular Penrith & Outer West rounds.
Will there be a smell?
Occasionally, if a rat dies in a void. It fades within a week or two, and station placement reduces the chance.
I have a dog. Is baiting safe?
We use locked stations fixed in place, and can use traps instead if you would rather avoid bait altogether.
Do you look after units in Richards?
Yes. For many pests, treating the whole building gives the best and longest result.
Do you come to Richards?
Yes. Richards is a regular part of our week, along with Angus, Berkshire Park and Gables.
Can you treat while I am at work?
Often, yes, if it is an outdoor treatment and gates are unlocked and pets are inside.
