Not every creature flying around your garden at night is a pest!

Microbats are actually one of nature’s little pest controllers, helping keep insect numbers down around our homes and gardens.

These tiny native mammals can eat up to half their body weight in insects in a single night, including mosquitoes, flies, moths and other insects.

And despite their reputation, microbats are generally quiet, harmless and play an important role in our local ecosystem.

So if you spot a microbat around your Eltham home, remember that you may actually have a helpful backyard visitor!

⚠️ Microbats should never be handled with bare hands. If you find an injured bat or one that needs assistance, contact a qualified wildlife carer for advice.

At RodX Pest Control, we believe good pest management is also about knowing the difference between unwanted pests and valuable native wildlife.

Give the microbats a break — they might just be helping keep the mozzies away!

Don't let stinging pests catch you by surprise!

As the weather warms up, ants, wasps and other stinging insects become more active around gardens and homes. Keep an eye out for ant nests in garden beds, paving cracks, lawns and around the foundations of your home, as they can grow quickly if left untreated.

It's also worth checking for signs of wasp activity under eaves, in sheds, around fences and in trees before spending time outdoors.

Early detection is the best way to prevent a small pest problem from becoming a painful one. If you've spotted nests, increased pest activity or aren't sure what you're dealing with, a professional inspection can help keep your family and pets safe.

Waking up with itchy bites you didn't have when you went to bed?

Itchy bites after sleeping can be one of the first signs people notice with bed bugs. But bites alone don't confirm a bed bug infestation — mosquitoes, fleas and other insects can cause similar reactions.

Look for other signs around your bedroom, including:

✅ Small, itchy bites on exposed skin
✅ Tiny blood spots on sheets or bedding
✅ Small dark marks around mattress seams
✅ Live bugs or shed skins around the bed
✅ Bugs hiding around mattress seams, bed frames, curtains and furniture

If you're waking up with unexplained bites and can't work out what's causing them, don't guess — get the problem identified.

RodX Pest Control can inspect your property, identify the likely pest and recommend the appropriate treatment.

As the weather starts to warm up, spiders begin emerging from their winter hiding spots—and it often happens just as we're outside cleaning up the garden, garage, shed and outdoor areas.

Why do you see more spiders in spring?

As temperatures rise, insects become more active, providing spiders with plenty of food. This encourages spiders to leave sheltered areas and become more active around your property.

You may start noticing more spiders:
✅ Around the house and eaves
✅ In garden areas and outdoor sheds
✅ Around garages and carports
✅ In corners, under furniture and other sheltered spots

Sudden changes in weather can also encourage spiders to seek shelter in cool, dry areas—including inside your home.

If you're planning your spring clean, it's also a great time to get ahead of spider season with a professional treatment from RodX Pest Control.

🕷️ Clean up the cobwebs. Treat the hiding spots. Get ahead of spider season.

Possums are nocturnal, so the first sign they're taking up residence can be the sounds coming from your roof after dark.

You might notice:
✅ Scratching or scurrying across the roof
✅ Thumping or movement during the night
✅ Noises coming from the roof cavity
✅ Droppings around entry points or outdoor areas

Possums can squeeze through surprisingly small gaps and may damage insulation or wiring when they settle into a roof space.

If you've got an unwanted furry tenant making noise overhead, don't ignore it.

RodX Pest Control can help identify where possums are getting in and provide professional, humane possum control solutions to get them out of your roof and then possum proof to prevent them getting back in

Getting ahead of spider season? Here’s how RodX tackles them.

If you're already finding spiders in the house, garage, shed or around the pool, just ahead of spring is a great time to put a professional treatment in place.

At RodX Pest Control, our spider treatment involves more than a quick spray:

1. Inspect
We identify the spiders and check common hiding and breeding areas, including eaves, fence lines, roof voids and sub-floors.

2. Treat inside
We apply a targeted treatment to skirting boards and known hiding spots to deal with spiders already inside.

3. Treat roof voids
Where accessible, specialised insecticidal dust is used in roof voids and wall cavities to reach areas sprays can't.

4. Create an external barrier
We treat areas such as gutters, eaves, window frames and fence lines to help prevent spiders from making their way inside.

Our registered treatments are designed with your family's safety in mind. People and pets should stay out during treatment and until the spray has completely dried, which is generally around 1–2 hours. Once dry, the treated areas are safe for cats and dogs to walk on.

Don't wait until the webs take over. Get ahead of spring spider activity with RodX Pest Control.

These winged ants are known as alates. Flying ants are the reproductive members of the colony, produced by the queen and supported by the worker ants. They remain inside the nest while immature and only emerge once they mature. Their role is to leave the colony, mate and establish new nests
