Respect over force
Protecting a home from termites doesn’t require heavy-handed treatment. Our approach favours careful barrier work, monitoring and maintenance over blunt, one-off measures.

Who we are
Our name, our approach
A grove is a place where nature is respected, not fought. We manage pests with precision and environmental care, working with the landscape around your home rather than against it.
Our story
A history of care
Grove Pest has protected homes across NSW for 25+ years, formerly trading as Harnel Pty Ltd. What began with one technician and a personal approach continues today under the second generation of the business.
Where we started
The business began with a single technician committed to protecting homes with genuine, personal care.
Where we are now
The second generation now carries the business forward, pairing updated technology with the same original commitment to expertise and long-term protection.
Our philosophy
We keep the wrong things out
Termites cause over $1.5 billion in damage to Australian homes every year, and home insurance typically won’t cover it. We focus on preventative protection, proper barrier installation, regular inspections and ongoing maintenance, so repair is rarely needed.
Why prevention matters
Termite damage sits outside most home insurance policies, which is why an installed barrier and a regular inspection schedule carry real weight for homeowners.
Our promise
Honest by design
No provider can honestly promise 100% protection against termites, and we won’t pretend otherwise. What we can say is that across 25+ years and thousands of homes, termite breaches under our care have been virtually non-existent.
Rolling warranty, no lock-in
Our protection plans carry a rolling warranty with no lock-in contract, so cover continues for as long as the plan is maintained.
