Signs of a Rodent Issue
Rodents are often active at night, which means infestations can go unnoticed at first. If you’re hearing unusual noises or spotting small signs around your property, it’s important to act quickly before the problem grows.
Common signs include:
• Scratching or movement in walls, ceilings or loft spaces
• Droppings in cupboards, drawers or along skirting boards
• Gnawed wires, food packaging or wooden surfaces
• Strong, unusual smells in certain areas of your property
• Nesting materials such as shredded paper, insulation or fabric
• Sightings of rats, mice or squirrels in or around your property

Our Rodent Control Process
1. Detailed Property Inspection
We carry out a thorough inspection of your property to identify whether you’re dealing with rats, mice or squirrels. We look for entry points, nesting areas, droppings, damage and signs of activity in lofts, kitchens, wall cavities and external areas.
2. Identifying Access Points
Rodents often enter through small gaps, damaged vents, drain issues or roofline weaknesses. We assess how they’re getting in and highlight the key areas that need addressing to stop repeat infestations.
3. Targeted Rodent Treatment
Based on our findings, we implement a tailored treatment plan using professional-grade products and proven control methods. The approach will depend on the species, severity and location of the infestation.
4. Monitoring & Prevention
We monitor activity levels and carry out follow-up visits if needed to ensure the treatment is working. We also provide practical advice and recommendations to help prevent rodents returning, including sealing entry points and reducing attractants around your property.
Rodent Control FAQs
How quickly can you attend?
We aim to respond as quickly as possible, with same-day or next-day appointments often available depending on location and urgency.
How long does rodent treatment take to work?
Rodent treatment does not usually work overnight. In most cases, it can take around 1–2 weeks for the treatment to start reducing activity, depending on the type of rodent and the severity of the infestation.
Follow-up visits are often required to monitor progress and ensure the problem is fully resolved. Our technician will keep you informed throughout the process so you know what to expect.
Is rodent treatment safe for pets and children?
Yes. We use professional methods and take safety seriously. Our technician will explain any precautions and ensure treatments are applied in a controlled and responsible way.
Will I need to leave my property during treatment?
In most cases, you will not need to leave your home or business. We will always advise you in advance if any special precautions are required.
How do rodents get into properties?
Rodents can enter through very small gaps, damaged vents, drain systems, rooflines or poorly sealed doors and windows. During our inspection, we identify these access points and recommend how to prevent future entry.
How much does rodent control cost?
The cost depends on the type of rodent, the size of the property and the level of infestation. We provide clear, upfront pricing following an inspection so you know exactly what to expect.
Do you offer proofing and prevention?
Yes. We don’t just treat the problem — we also provide advice and proofing recommendations to help stop rodents returning.
What if the rodents come back?
We monitor activity during treatment and offer follow-up visits where needed. Prevention and proofing are a key part of our service to reduce the risk of future infestations.
