A summit at Mt Misery in the east is formed by heavily wooded slopes of a ridge beginning in the north/south direction and rising to elevation of over 500 metres above sea level.

Typical of other areas in the Scenic Region, Biddaddaba is mostly agricultural. To aid these farmlands, several large dams are located throughout the area.
Potential Risks for Pest Infestation
Here are some of the pests that could potentially cause problems for property owners in Biddaddaba.
Ant Control in Biddaddaba
Ants enter homes when they find a source of food. They are ignored at first, but they become beyond annoying when you start seeing them everywhere and start causing a number of issues.
Carpenter ants, which are black in colour, make furniture and wood their home. The wood begins to rot due to the tunnelling of the ants. Their presence also invites other pests like spiders, which consider them prey/food.
Homes are attractive to ants because they provide a comfortable place for them to live. Food and water can be abundant in homes. Sugar, crumbs and uncovered food attract ants. If there is ant colony near your home and your place has openings where they can enter, then expect ants to discover them and use them to gain access to your home.
Using commercial insect sprays can only be effective in the short. What homeowner need to prevent ant infestation or eliminate them effectively is the help of professional pest control experts.
