Detached houses with big gardens and mature trees draw squirrels, wasps and rodents. We find the cause and treat it across Bramcote, then advise on prevention.
Bramcote's hillside suburb is made up of detached and semi-detached houses, many with sizeable gardens and mature planting. Squirrels use the trees and roofs as a highway, wasps settle in quiet corners of lofts and garages, and rats are drawn by compost or poultry feed at the bottom of a long garden. Slopes and mature planting give pests cover, so we inspect the garden boundary and the sides of the house that face the trees as well as the roof.
A detached house has more exterior to inspect, so we look at the roofline, soffits and outbuildings as well as the loft itself. Once the pest is dealt with, we offer free advice on the garden, because the cause of the problem is often outside the house and not in it. After the visit you will know where the entry points are, and we will explain how to deal with them, from trimming branches to securing feed and waste.
Listen for scampering or thumping, especially early morning, and look for chewed wiring or insulation. Droppings and torn material also give them away. Call us to confirm and treat. If you are still unsure, take a photograph of any droppings or damage, with something for scale, because it helps us identify what is responsible before we arrive.
Sheds, garages and summerhouses attract wasps and rodents, and from there they can reach the house. We include them in the inspection if you ask. Garden buildings are often warmer, drier and less disturbed than the house, so they are first choice for wasps and rodents. Checking them early prevents surprises later.

Bed bugs hitch lifts in suitcases and second-hand furniture, and they are no sign of a dirty home. Here is what to do in the first few days if you suspect them.
