PestGone will continue to monitor on forthcoming service visits. Additional bait stations have been installed along sub entrances to Shuttleworth Street”.
I can advise, that resulting from Pestgone’s findings yesterday, we have raised the Emergency Works Order to contractor to attend and seal the gaps in the sheds which were identified after residents had cleared their sheds for Pestgone’s inspection of the sheds yesterday (Monday 9th October).
May I also take this opportunity to thank our residents who cleared their Storage Sheds which permitted Pestgone to undertake the inspection.
