Hi all,

As you would all know, times are tough, and im currently looking at expanding my business a little bit here and there. I was hoping the mods could leave this up for a couple of days to see if I could generate any sort of interest what so ever.

I've been doing Pest control for 5 years now, and been with two of Melbournes biggest companies. I have the experience in all types of Treatments and inspections.

For this month, im taking 30% off treatments for:

Rats + Mice

Ants

Spiders

Bee's + Wasps

Cockroaches

Bed Bugs

Fleas

Carpet Beetles

Millipedes

Earwigs

Rodents are on the rise again this winter as I have seen through previous clientele this month, and would like to extend the offer to SAU members too!

I can do cheap prices for bulk treatments and also use Chemicals that do not harm carpet/walls/pets/babies etc. Treatments can be done on weekends and weekdays, And you are able to stay while the treatment is being performed.

For more information, send us a PM.

Cheers!!

No possums?

I have a possum problem. Bloody possums. Shitting all over the damn place.

Possums are possible mate.

I would have to leave a cage baited with a peice of fruit over night and check back regularly. Depends on where you live also.

Yeah, that'd be cool. I'm at blackburn north, springfield road.

Is it possible? PM me your rates too, thanks.

I can do those as well. Subfloor? Concrete slab?

Concrete slab. Treatment barrier pipes are established around the house with a few refilling points around. You know those green square plastic caps...

I have a regular company who I use through my builder's recommendation when I had the house built 2-3 years ago.

Last check about 1.5 years ago, I haven't had the chemical retreated since my landscaping work around the house.

PM me a quote, I'll have a comparison... or what else do you need to know? perimeter length? if required I can calculate off the house drawing/plan.

Some are bordering to a concrete driveway, some are bordering to lawn

my womens house has a raised back lawn with sleepers around it and its infested with brown ants, and they have now moved in under the house ! little pricks!

If you don't mind me asking, Which company are you using? As for the treatment, I would need to do a prior inspection to understand what revision of the Termite pipes have been used.

If you have any previous paperwork from the previous company at home, That would help too champ.

With the treatment, I would need to have a quick look at the setup and how big the house is, As Termite treatments are a lot more complicated haha

We had our new place treated for pests about 3 weeks ago and the guy said this time of year isn't the best for doing it to be 100% effective. He said most pests are active in Spring and through the summer months. We insisted on having the place treated as the previous owner had cats so he has offered to come back mid-late spring if we find an increase in pests and will treat it again as his reputation is to rid the things.

Is there substance to his statement?

Good offer for the club, would be good to see more like that outside of cars too as we are a large enough group of people to have a variety of skills :P

There is somewhat small peice of truth behind what he has said;

In Winter, You won't see as many pests coming out, But they are still there. I see Ants and Spiders all the time this Winter, And they are "apparently" Summer insects. As for Effectiveness, I beleive this comes down to the Technician. If you know what your doing, you can make it an very effective treatment. Season has no part in it. If its raining then I will not treat as that just defaces what im doing; In other words, It won't be effective. You can do a normal treatment for Ants/Spiders/Cockroaches any time of the year and it will be just as effective as any other season.

To be honest, His so called "reputation" sounds like its up the Duff. If a client comes to me saying they have Ants/Spiders in Winter, And ask if i can get it done, I'll get it done and not complain about apparent "seasonal differences". He sounds a bit on the high side to be honest Mate!

Thanks for the word up. Im extending this to all of SAU as I feel it would be helpful and cheap prices in this time of the financial crisis could be very handy for all!

As much as I'd like to leave this here - I can't.

We have paying business that pay good money to advertise their goods, so you must pay unfortunately.

If you wish however to look into a SAU-Vic club supporter/sponsor (offering the discount to members only, vic focused), then that might be a possibility.

The club is probably the better avenue here for you as its Vic only and so on :P

    • Howdy friends, So another weird one today, I was looking into replacing some broken clips holding the front grille for the R32 GTR (part number 01553-03831), and noticed the brackets which are supposed to hold the grille in place were also missing 😑. I do recall seeing this issue many years ago, but didn't fix it at the time. A quick look on eBay and I was able to find the genuine brackets, along with all the screws which suited the headlights (part numbers 26042-08U05,26092-08U05). Happy days!....  Once they arrived however there was an extra nut in the packaging which implied that there should also be a bolt or a stud, and sure enough, after a bit of searching I found this thread from 2013, and @Ants clearly shows a stud should be present. Reading around a bit more, it's possible the headlights on my car are the "povo pack" headlights as mentioned by @funkymonkey in this thread way back in 2008. This could explain why the studs are missing on my set of headlights. Looking at the headlight diagram I wasn't able to see a suitable part number for the stud itself. The headlight did indeed have a recess that looked like it would accept a stud, but interestingly no thread or anything obvious how the stud would be affixed to the headlight, I suspect it may have been glued in, press fit, or melted into the plastic at the factory. Another member may be able to clarify if they happen to have a genuine set of N1 headlamps. The only thing we have to work with within the recess is a keyway which likely is there to prevent the stud from rotating within the recess. In any case, back to 3D printing, I put together a model which acts like a pug with a friction fit inside this recess, making use of the keyway so it doesn't rotate while tightening a bolt. Printing in TPU will allow it to slightly swell making a nice snug fit without cracking the part. I've designed the adaptor it to accept an 20 mm M6 bolt (stainless with a cap head in my case), as opposed to the standard M5 stud and I made use of the standard galvanised split washer that came with the genuine brackets from Nissan. Once the bolt and screws were all in place, giving the bracket a gentle shake gave the classic "shaking the car" feeling, very solid, which gives me confidence this is going to be able to hold on much better than the janky solution which seems to have been here for the past decade or so. Overall I'm really pleased with how this turned out and maybe there are more people out there running these headlights without a centre stud at all!

    • Hey everyone, This is my first post apart of the introduction. I tried searching a bit on the forum but couldn't really get a straight answer. I got the car to my mechanic as I felt it being weak. It seems that it was missing on two cylinders due to the injectors. I had all my injectors clean and the car runs much better. The mechanic also confirmed my suspicions that the cat is clogged and needs to be tackled asap. The cat rattles a bit and the hot exhaust warning frequently lights up when driving after getting the injectors clean. In my introduction I was asked about what modification I might be interested in and mentioned a cat delete. From what I was told, this is not really beneficial on the RB20DE and there are more cons than pros.  Could perhaps anyone give some suggestions on what the best course of action would be since the current cat is toast and needs to be removed/replaced anyway? I can also sometimes smell a strong smell of fuel, but I'm not sure if this is related.
    • Hope the cans went down well at least 
    • 255 can't go wrong with the price.
    • When I was replacing my pump due to being stranded in the wrong state, I went with the Deatschwerks 320lph kit. It is a direct plug in to the stock wires, harness, everything. It comes with a plug... but you can plug the OEM plug directly into this thing. https://justjap.com/products/deatschwerks-dw300-fuel-pump-nissan-s13-silvia-r32-r33-r34-skyline-c34-stagea?currency=AUD Downside: Won't actually flow that much on boost if you want to push it on E85, but it's comparable to the 040/255 etc. Little more actually.
