Rodents not only pose a threat to human health by spreading diseases, but they also cause costly damage to property and agricultural crops. The most effective way to prevent further infestation is to mitigate and prevent rodents on your property. If you encounter any rodents, contact Flick Pest Control immediately.

Common Pests Across Christchurch
Borer Control & Timber Protection
Any untreated timber in your home is vulnerable to borers or woodworm, which can cause significant structural damage. Common house borers attack exterior weatherboards, interior walls, flooring, and roof timbers, leaving behind tell-tale holes. Early detection and treatment are crucial to prevent costly repairs.
When purchasing a new home, checking for borers is an essential part of your due diligence. Flick technicians will thoroughly survey your property for borer activity, identify the species, and assess the severity of the infestation. We then tailor a precise treatment plan to effectively eradicate the problem and protect your timber.
Cockroach Control & Eradication
Four main types of cockroaches are found in New Zealand. While native cockroaches are usually found in the bush, they can enter homes, especially during colder weather. The American and smaller German cockroach varieties prefer warm indoor environments, often hiding in electrical appliances and behind fridges. Cockroach droppings pose a health risk, making proper treatment essential to break their breeding cycle.
Our technicians use a combination of low-toxicity treatments to provide the most effective solution for your cockroach problem, ensuring a healthier environment for your home or business.
Rat & Mice Control for Homes & Businesses
Christchurch’s climate provides an ideal environment for rats and mice to thrive. These rodents can gain access to your property through small gaps in brickwork and roof tiles, causing considerable damage by chewing through electrical cords and food packaging, and contaminating food supplies.
Often nesting in roofs and wall cavities, rats and mice leave droppings and are notorious for spreading diseases. Properties located near restaurants or food-related businesses are at a higher risk of rodent infestation and should take extra preventative measures.
Flick’s Christchurch pest control team will inspect your home and offer a range of comprehensive solutions to prevent and eliminate rat and mouse problems. We also provide specialised commercial rodent control solutions perfectly suited for restaurants and similar businesses.
Flea Pest Control & Prevention
Fleas can quickly infest homes, causing discomfort and potential health risks for both humans and pets. Hiring professional flea pest control services in Christchurch is crucial to effectively eliminate these pests from your property. Our technicians possess the expert knowledge, extensive experience, and specialised tools required to identify and treat flea infestations.
We tailor solutions to your specific situation, ensuring the infestation is completely eradicated. We also offer end-of-lease flea treatments, a vital service for tenants moving homes. With Flick’s help, you can create a safe and flea-free environment for you and your family.
