Burwood Heights - Local, Licensed & Same-Day Service
Burwood Heights sits on the quieter, leafier edge of the Burwood-Canada Bay border — a small, predominantly residential pocket of inter-war brick and Californian bungalow homes on generous blocks, with mature trees, established gardens, and a handful of low-rise unit buildings near the railway corridor. The pest profile here is different to neighbouring Burwood: less density, fewer commercial premises, but significantly more termite, rodent, and possum pressure thanks to the mature tree canopy, older subfloors, and proximity to the rail reserve. On Call Pest Control delivers thorough, residential-focused treatments to Burwood Heights from $89.
Why Burwood Heights Homes & Businesses Need Specialist Pest Control
Most of the housing stock in Burwood Heights dates from the 1920s through the 1950s – solid double-brick homes with timber subfloors, terracotta roofs, and weatherboard extensions added decades later. These homes are exactly the kind of structures that subterranean termites target: undisturbed soil contact under bathrooms and laundries, untreated timber bearers, and gardens that creep right up to weep holes. The tree-lined streets and mature backyards also support strong rodent and possum populations, with rats nesting in roof voids and ceiling cavities particularly through the cooler months. Unlike high-density Burwood proper, Burwood Heights pest jobs almost always start with a thorough external and subfloor inspection – because what’s happening under and around the house matters more than what you can see inside.
Our Pest Control Services in Burwood Heights
We deliver a full range of residential and commercial pest treatments across Burwood Heights, focusing on the services most in demand locally.
Annual Termite Inspections
We provide comprehensive AS 3660.2-compliant inspections covering subfloors, roof voids, garden perimeters, and all timber-to-ground contact points. Annual inspections are strongly recommended, especially for pre-1980 homes in Burwood Heights.
Termite Treatments & Barriers
Our termite solutions include full chemical barriers, baiting systems, and direct nest treatments for active subterranean infestations. We use trusted Australian termiticides and provide written warranties for peace of mind.
Rodent Removal & Roof Void Treatment
We carry out roof and ceiling cavity baiting, seal entry points around eaves and weep holes, and provide follow-up inspections. This service is particularly important during autumn and winter when rodents move indoors.

We offer family-safe internal and external treatments for German and American cockroaches, along with seasonal ant control for kitchens, laundries, and outdoor areas.
Spider & Wasp Treatments
Our targeted treatments cover redback, black house, and white-tailed spiders, along with safe removal of European wasp and paper wasp nests from eaves, gardens, and sheds.

Frequently Asked Questions - Pest Control in Burwood Heights
My Burwood Heights home is from the 1930s — how often should I get a termite inspection?
For any home built before the 1980s, we recommend a full termite inspection at least once every 12 months. Older Burwood Heights homes typically have untreated timber subfloors and timber-to-ground contact that subterranean termites can exploit without any visible warning signs.
I keep hearing scratching in my ceiling at night. Is that rats or possums?
Both are common in Burwood Heights, but the timing and sound usually tells us which. Rats are most active in the few hours after dusk and around dawn, with quick scurrying sounds. Possums are heavier, slower, and often vocal. We can inspect the roof void and tell you exactly what’s up there – and treat or exclude accordingly.
Are your treatments safe around children and pets?
Yes. We use low-toxicity, family-safe products for all internal residential treatments, and we’ll always discuss re-entry times and any precautions before we start. For homes with young children or pets, we’ll often recommend gel baits and targeted treatments over broad-spectrum sprays.
How much does a termite inspection in Burwood Heights cost?
A standard full termite inspection starts from $89 for typical-sized homes. Larger properties or those requiring detailed reporting for sale or purchase are quoted individually. The inspection includes a written report with photographs and recommendations.
