Menora was subdivided from the 1940s and named in 1954 after the old Menora picture theatre on Walcott Street, with a section of its streets laid out in the shape of a menorah. The housing is predominantly single detached brick homes on large lots: Californian bungalows, art deco, post-war and international-style houses, many of them heritage or character listed by the City of Stirling. Almost all of them carry original timber roof framing, and the earliest have timber floors on bearers and joists over a subfloor. The ground is the yellow Spearwood sand of the Mount Lawley rise, which drains freely and gives subterranean termites easy tunnelling between mature gardens and old timber.
There is no bushland in Menora itself, but Yokine Reserve sits on its western edge and a run of public open space and pocket parks threads through the suburb, all of it heavily treed. Mature trees mean roof rats: they bridge from canopy to tiled roof and enter through lifted tiles, gable vents and the gaps where 1950s fascias have shrunk. The retirement villages and grouped dwellings along Alexander Drive and Walcott Street share roof voids and services, so a rodent or cockroach problem in one unit is rarely confined to it. We plan those jobs as a whole complex, with written records for each area treated.
The Menora pest short-list.
Termites
Original timber roof framing, timber floors on stumps in the older bungalows and decades of garden beds against brickwork. Inspections to AS 4349.3, with a management system to AS 3660.2 where activity is found. Termite inspection.
Coastal brown ants
Under paving, driveway edges and the retaining walls of terraced front gardens, tracking into kitchens along the slab or subfloor. Colony-level treatment with a non-repellent product applied to its label, never a repellent spray that splits the colony.
Rats in the roof
Big trees, big roof voids and tiled roofs on timber battens. Menora rodent work starts with a torch in the roof and a walk of the eaves, then baiting in tamper-resistant stations and proofing the entry points. Rodent management.
Spiders and cockroaches
Black house spiders on brick and under eaves, redbacks in retic boxes and letterboxes, and American cockroaches from the old clay sewer and stormwater lines that serve the suburb. General pest treatment.
This season in Menora.
Spring in Menora starts with ants working up through paving and garden edges as the ground warms, and with rodents that wintered in roof voids moving out into gardens where they are easier to notice. Black house spiders and redbacks build up quickly on warm brick. With so much original 1940s to 1960s timber framing, a termite inspection now, before the November alate flights, is the most useful thing a Menora owner can book this season.
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.

Who does pest control in Menora?
DJ Pest is a family-run pest control business that services Menora from its base in Warwick WA 6024, about 15 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 long does it take you to get to Menora?
About fifteen minutes from Warwick, down the Mitchell Freeway or Alexander Drive to Walcott Street. Same-day for active pests is usually possible, and we schedule around retirement village and strata access requirements without fuss.
Are the older character homes in Menora at real termite risk?
Yes. Most of the suburb's bungalows and post-war homes have original timber roof framing, and the earliest have suspended timber floors. Termites reach them through garden beds against the walls and through subfloor vents blocked by paving. An inspection to AS 4349.3 each year is the sensible baseline; a chemical management system to AS 3660.2 follows only where it is needed. Book an inspection.
Why do ants keep coming back inside my Menora kitchen?
Coastal brown ants nest in the sand under paving and slabs and send workers along pipes and skirting to food. A repellent spray at the skirting kills the workers you can see and pushes the colony to split. We use slow-acting non-repellent products and baits, applied to label, that are carried back to the nest and collapse it. Read more.
Can you treat a whole retirement village or grouped dwelling in Menora?
Yes. We treat common areas and individual units, plan the work with the village or strata manager, and document each area treated so there is a clear record. A combined external treatment across a complex is more effective than treating one unit at a time, because rodents and cockroaches move freely through shared roof voids and service ducts.
What does a general pest treatment in Menora involve, and what is the investment?
An internal and external treatment covers spiders, cockroaches, ants and silverfish with APVMA-registered products applied to their labels, low-odour and non-staining indoors, with a re-treatment promise. 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!
