Greenwood was developed in the 1970s and early 1980s on the same yellow Spearwood sand as Warwick. The housing is mostly single-storey brick veneer and double brick with tiled roofs on timber framing, plus a run of later two-storey rebuilds and a few newer infill lots near Greenwood train station and the freeway. Blocks are big by modern standards and gardens are established, which is good for shade and good for pests: mulched beds against the slab, timber retaining, fruit trees, and reticulation keeping the sand moist through summer.
The suburb is boxed in by Wanneroo Road on the east and the Mitchell Freeway on the west, with Warwick Open Space to the south and Kingsley's lake-and-bush country to the north. So while Greenwood itself is mostly houses and parks, pests move in from bushland on two sides. Rodents come in from the road reserves and rail corridor in winter; spiders and native cockroaches come in from the remnant bush in autumn.
The Greenwood pest short-list.
Termites
Same story as Warwick: old timber framing, sandy soil, garden beds over the slab edge. Greenwood homes with timber patios or old pine sleeper retaining walls are the ones we see most termite activity in. Book an inspection.
Coastal brown ants
Everywhere in Greenwood. Trails across paving, nests under pavers and along the edge of the lawn, and a kitchen incursion the moment the retic goes on. Treated as a colony, not a trail. Ant management.
Rats and mice
Roof voids with timber framing and sarking are warm and quiet. Entry is usually a lifted tile, an open eave gap or a gap around a flue. Rodent management here is mostly a proofing job.
German cockroaches
Older kitchens with original cabinetry have voids and gaps behind kickboards that German cockroaches love. Gel bait plus an insect growth regulator, not a spray.
This season in Greenwood.
Spring in Greenwood means ant trails are back on the driveways, redbacks are appearing under eaves and outdoor furniture, and the first paper wasp nests are being built under pergola beams. If the house has a timber roof frame and has not been inspected for termites in a year, book before swarm season in November.
Warmer soil brings coastal brown ants and redbacks out. Good time for a perimeter treatment before summer.
Subterranean termites swarm on warm, humid evenings. Sandy northern-suburb soils and garden timber raise the risk.
German and Australian cockroaches follow warmth and food into kitchens as nights cool.
Rats and mice look for warm voids. Sealing entry points now beats baiting later.

Asked in Greenwood.
Who does pest control in Greenwood?
DJ Pest is a family-run pest control business that services Greenwood from its base in Warwick WA 6024, about 5 minutes away. It is registered with WA Health as a pest management business (PMB 3000), gives an itemised written price before any work starts, and is open Mon–Sun 7:00am–6:00pm. It is rated 5.0 from 25 Google reviews. Call 0468 170 107 or see the price ranges.
How far is Greenwood from your base?
About five minutes. We are in Warwick, immediately south, so Greenwood jobs are among the easiest for us to fit in, including same-day for active pests.
Is Greenwood a high termite-risk suburb?
It is a typical northern-suburbs risk, which is meaningful. Sandy soil, homes built in the 1970s and 1980s with timber roof framing and no physical barrier, and mature gardens against the slab. We recommend an inspection to AS 4349.3 every 12 months and can install a chemical management system to AS 3660.2 if activity or high risk is found.
What do you use inside a Greenwood kitchen for cockroaches?
Gel baits and an insect growth regulator placed in the cabinetry voids and around plumbing penetrations, plus a non-staining product where a surface treatment is needed. No wet spray over benchtops. Cockroach management.
Can you treat the rodents in my roof without poison?
Often, yes. Trapping and proofing are the first tools where there are pets, kids or a preference for no rodenticide. Where baits are used they go in tamper-resistant stations only, and we explain placement and re-entry before we start.
What does a general pest treatment cost in Greenwood?
A typical three-bedroom home, internal and external, sits in the $250 to $350 range. Every job is quoted itemised in writing. See the investment guide.

Couldn’t recommend Dane highly enough! We’d been having an ongoing issue with ants around the house and nothing we tried seemed to keep them away. Dane came out, was incredibly thorough, explained exactly what he was doing and got the problem under control straight away. We’ve noticed such a huge difference since! Professional, reliable and genuinely cares about doing the job properly. Phenomenal service from start to finish and we’ll definitely be using him again!
Thanks Trish! You sure did have an ant problem but I’m glad we found the source. I may have to call in for a haircut soon, I hear you are world class! Until next next time 🕷️🐀🦂🦟🪳
Really happy with DJ Pest!!!! We'd been putting up with rats scratching around in the roof at our place in Warwick for weeks, plus mosquitoes making the backyard unusable in the evenings and ants marching across the driveway. DJ Pest came out, sorted all three in one go and explained exactly what they were doing and why. The roof has been silent since, the mozzies are gone and the driveway is clear. Professional, on time and fair on price. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone!!!
You are very welcome Brooke! I personally get targeted by mozzies and there is nothing worse when they are getting the kids too! Thanks for calling DJ Pest!
Excellent customer service, very knowledgeable and explained thoroughly what he was going to do and what each chemical did. Punctual, happy to discuss your needs and no nasty surprises for price. You get what you pay for, and this was a service that really was more than I paid for. Highly recommended!!
Scott you are a world class sparky and even better bloke. Appreciate you and your support. Wishing Collingwood Magpies better luck next year!
