NEVER-PEST
A steel vermin-proofing flashing for custom sheds — installed during the build to seal the gap between wall cladding and the concrete slab. Made from COLORBOND® steel in the BlueScope Steel family. Keeps rats, snakes, frogs and embers out for the life of your shed.
We got tired of second-rate vermin-proofing
Sure, some of the big brands go okay at first. But here's the thing — a lot of them are made of plastic. That just doesn't fit in with our commitment to building sheds that last for generations.
We got so tired of it, we created our own product to keep pests out of the sheds we build. Introducing NEVER-PEST.
A vermin-proofing product that's as tough as the sheds we build. Made of Australian steel, designed to keep wily Australian pests out of your shed.
What is NEVER-PEST?
NEVER-PEST is the new vermin-proofing flashing from Stockman Sheds. Installed during the construction of your shed, it's a steel product that eliminates the gaps between the shed wall cladding and the concrete slab.
No gaps means no pests getting in. Rodents, snakes, frogs and lizards are kept out. Whatever you're keeping in your shed is protected from infestation.
There's nothing worse than waking up one morning to find rats have chewed their way through your car electronics. Or pooped all over the ride-on mower. Or you reach for a tool and grab a snake instead.
With NEVER-PEST, the inside of your shed becomes a safe space.
Bonus: NEVER-PEST also improves your resilience against bushfires — the minimal gap prevents sparks and embers from making it into the shed.
Why choose NEVER-PEST?
Plastic vermin-proofing products just weren't cutting it. They're not durable enough — they get brittle over time from sun exposure, eventually breaking up and turning to dust. Rats can also chew their way through plastic.
And when you're whipper-snipping or mowing around your shed edges, you can easily damage the plastic flashing.
NEVER-PEST is made from COLORBOND® steel, part of the BlueScope Steel family. That means it's tried, tested and proven in Australian conditions and will give you decades of use.
It can also be colour-matched to the COLORBOND® cladding of your shed walls — visual consistency to go alongside the enhanced pest-proofing and bushfire resistance.
