Rodents (Rats & Mice)

I think I’ve got rats/mice — how can I tell?

Look out for droppings, gnawed food or wires, scratching noises, or even spotting one scurrying about.

How do you deal with rats and mice?

We use safe, effective methods like traps and baits, and we’ll help block up any gaps to stop them coming back.

How long will it take to get rid of them?

Usually just a few visits — but we’ll always explain the plan clearly at the start.

Wasp Nest Removal

There’s a wasp nest near my home — what should I do?

Stay away from it and give us a call! Wasps can get very aggressive if disturbed.

How do you remove wasp nests?

We use professional treatments that destroy the nest quickly and safely. You won’t need to worry about wasps bothering you again.

Can I remove a wasp nest myself?

We strongly recommend you don’t — it can be dangerous without the right equipment and knowledge.

Squirrel Removal

I’ve got squirrels in my loft — can you help?

Definitely. Squirrels can cause serious damage by chewing wires and woodwork. We’ll humanely remove them and advise on proofing your property to keep them out.

Are grey squirrels protected?

No — grey squirrels are classed as an invasive species in the UK, so it’s perfectly legal (and sometimes necessary) to remove them.

Ant and Insect Infestations

Can you help with ants in my kitchen?

Of course! We’ll identify the type of ant and treat the nest directly for lasting results.

What other insects do you deal with?

We tackle fleas, cockroaches, moths, beetles, and more. If it’s crawling where it shouldn’t be, we can help.

Garden Moles

I’ve found molehills in my garden — what now?

It sounds like you’ve got moles! We use humane trapping methods to clear them quickly and protect
your lawn.

Bed Bugs

I think I’ve got bed bugs — what should I look for?

Red bites on your skin, blood spots on your sheets, and tiny bugs hiding in mattress seams are all warning signs.
