The Problem

A local family in Harris Park, Western Sydney contacted us about a serious ant infestation in their backyard chicken coop. Ants had taken over the nesting boxes and feeding trays, drawn to food scraps and the warm shelter of the timber frame. The situation was not only unhygienic but also stressful for the chickens, disrupting their laying and feeding habits. With livestock present, the treatment required careful planning to ensure it was safe pest control for animals.

Our Solution

We developed a tailored ant pest control treatment using low-toxicity, livestock-safe products. These were formulated to target ants at their source, interrupting both breeding and feeding cycles. This ensured immediate relief while also preventing future outbreaks — giving the family peace of mind that their flock was protected without the risk of harmful chemicals.

Implementation

Our Harris Park pest control team conducted a full inspection of the coop and surrounding soil. Ant trails were located along the wooden structures and deep within the soil beneath the run. We applied precise treatments to these areas and strategically placed ant baits in safe zones inaccessible to the chickens. As the job progressed, it became clear the infestation was more widespread than expected, so we carried out additional treatments in cracks and soil cavities to ensure a thorough result.

Post Treatment

Over the following two weeks, we stayed in contact with the family and carried out follow-up inspections. Ant activity was significantly reduced within days, and by the second week, no trails or colonies were visible around the nesting boxes or feeding trays. The hens were noticeably calmer, feeding without interruption, and egg production returned to normal.

Results

Our ant control in Harris Park successfully eliminated the infestation and restored a clean, safe environment for both the chickens and their owners. The coop was free from visible ant activity day and night, even in high-risk spots. Preventive advice was also provided to reduce the risk of future reinfestations.

Client Feedback

Hi Tumblr

I’m Asadullah Ali, owner-operator of Armani Pest Control in Western Sydney. Here’s what a real day on the tools looks like—three home visits, three very different problems, one happy sleep at the end (for my customers and their pets).

7:10am — “Breakfast Guests” in Pendle Hill

A young couple called about “clicking sounds” and little pepper-like droppings in the utensil drawer. Classic German cockroach clues. I started with a torch-and-mirror inspection: hinges, toaster crumb tray, kickboards, warm motor cavity behind the fridge—bingo. I vacuumed live clusters with a HEPA unit, placed low-transfer gel baits inside concealed harbourages, and applied an IGR (insect growth regulator) to break breeding cycles. No broad spray near food prep—precision only.

We had a quick chat about sealing gaps around the dishwasher, wiping up late-night crumbs, and decanting dry goods into sealed jars. By the end, the kitchen smelled like coffee again, not roaches. I’ll pop back in two weeks for a check-in, but this one’s on the right track.

Pro tip: Keep bench-top appliances crumb-free and slide the fridge out once a month. Roaches love warm motors more than we love flat whites.

12:45pm — The Cot, the Web, and Seven Hills

A first-time mum found messy webs under the cot and around window frames. Most webs belonged to daddy long-legs (harmless), but the shed skins outside pointed to redbacks in the eaves. Step one: identify properly. Step two: remove webs with a soft brush and vacuum indoors. Step three: a targeted external treatment along eaves, door thresholds, and weep holes—light, precise, and safe once dry. I installed simple door sweeps and showed the family how to keep toys and prams off the ground in the garage. We finished by checking the nursery—no sprays in sleeping spaces, ever. Just mechanical removal and sealing tiny gaps. Mum exhaled. Baby slept. I left a little care card with a reminder to shake out shoes kept in the garage.

Pro tip: Web removal is half the battle. No web = no pantry for spiders. Do a fortnightly sweep around entries and outdoor furniture.

6:20pm — Midnight Scratches in Westmead

A classic fibro home, lovely veggie patch out back, and the unmistakable tap-dance of rodents in the ceiling. My construction background kicks in here: I traced gnaw marks on the subfloor and found a 25mm gap where old pipework meets brick. That’s a mouse highway. I set tamper-resistant stations in roof and subfloor (kid/pet safe), used snap traps where activity was tight, then sealed entry points with mesh and mortar. We tidied stacked firewood away from the wall and moved bird seed into lidded tubs. Before I left, we stood in the yard listening to… silence. That “first quiet night” face is why I love this job.

Pro tip: If you’re hearing ceiling scratches, look outside. Overgrown vines and stacked materials against walls are five-star rodent hotels.
