To Whom It May Concern:
My name is Janice Watkins our usual Castle Craig pest control company was not available to carry out a wasp control treatment urgently on our house so we decided to take the plunge and call MicroPest pest control Castlecrag. As like many people you look on the Internet and is very hard to distinguish a good company from the bad, it was a good-looking guy that was on the front page of the Internet site that clinched it. After explaining to the Micropest man on the telephone that we had two toddlers under the age of four living in our house and we were very concerned about the children been stung by the wasps he decided to drop everything and come around straight away. It was a fast effective wasp control service that we were very grateful for. Within 30 min the wasps had passed on. I can confidently and sincerely recommend MicroPest pest control for any pest control services you may require.
Yours sincerely

Ant pest control Castlecrag.
To Whom It May Concern:
I would like to thank Gerard from MicroPest for finally giving us the ability to eliminate an ant problem we have had for over 10 years. It was incredible. To get rid of ants you have to feed them not spray them. Any residual sprays will generally only last week or two where as if you apply an ant bait called advion gel made by DuPont once a day on active life ants for approximately four days you eliminate the whole ant colony. We have tried every an bait and and spray that you can purchase in the supermarket but nothing comes anywhere near the effectiveness of advion gel. Micropest is a good company with honest pest control operators that I can confidently refer to anyone reading this Castle Craig pest control testimonial.
Yours sincerely
David Prince.
Information About Castlecrag
Castlecrag is a suburb located on the lower North Shore of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. Situated 8 kilometers north of the Sydney central business district, it falls under the jurisdiction of the City of Willoughby. This suburb is historically significant and is bordered by Middle Harbour to the north, east, and south, and by Eastern Valley Way to the west. Sharing its postcode, 2068, with neighboring suburbs Willoughby, Middle Cove, and North Willoughby, Castlecrag stands out for its unique planning and architecture.
The suburb was initially planned by the visionary husband-and-wife team, Walter Burley Griffin and Marion Mahony Griffin. They named Castlecrag after a towering rock formation overlooking Middle Harbour, known locally as Edinburgh Castle. The Griffins moved to Castlecrag in 1925 after becoming disillusioned with the bureaucratic obstacles surrounding their designs for Canberra, Australia’s capital city.
Early homes in Castlecrag were constructed using natural stone, aligning with the Arts and Crafts Movement’s principles of blending with the environment and emphasizing “the human touch” over mass production. Some homes were built using Walter Burley Griffin’s patented Knitlock system. During the early 20th century, Castlecrag was an experiment in communal living and thoughtful urban planning.
The Castle Crag Post Office opened on September 1, 1937, later being renamed Castlecrag in 1941. Streets in the older southern part of the suburb are named after castle parts, such as The Barbette, The Barbican, and The Battlement. The main street is Edinburgh Road.
The Griffins’ vision in 1921 was to create a model residential suburb that harmonized with the Australian natural environment. Walter Burley Griffin, struck by Sydney Harbour’s beauty, emphasized site-specific planning. He founded the Greater Sydney Development Association (GSDA) to develop Castlecrag, with a focus on respecting natural landscapes and fostering community spirit. The Griffins lived there from 1925, planting native trees and developing a natural amphitheater for community events. Their emphasis on community included forming groups like music clubs and the Neighbourhood Circle, with residents actively participating in building each other’s homes.
The suburb’s roads were designed to follow the land’s natural contours, unlike the typical grid plan of the time. This approach retained the area’s natural beauty, with roads less visible from above and offering scenic views. The planning included linking reserves through walkways, providing recreational spaces while preserving the bushland backdrop. Griffin’s plan allocated 20% of Castlecrag’s land for parkland, far exceeding Council regulations.
Before development, the area was stripped of vegetation for resources. The Griffins promoted environmental respect by planting native trees and establishing land covenants restricting unnatural construction. Today, national, state, and local governments, alongside heritage organizations, recognize Castlecrag’s importance, implementing controls to protect its built and natural environment.
Architecturally, houses in Castlecrag, designed or approved by the Griffins, were built with concrete block and site-found stone, facilitating quick and affordable construction. The Griffins introduced innovations like pass-through pantries and flat roofs for unobstructed views. The houses, lacking front fences, blended with the surroundings, contrasting with the era’s uniform red-roofed homes.
Recent developments in Castlecrag have not always adhered to Griffin ideals, but the Willoughby City Council enforces controls to preserve the suburb’s character. These controls encourage new constructions to respect Griffin’s original designs and the natural landscape
