Post-war estates have long runs of similar homes, and pests spread along them. We treat the problem on the Broxtowe estate and show you the likely entry points.
On a large post-war estate, houses were often built to the same pattern, so a weakness found in one home may be repeated along the row. A gap by a service pipe, an unsealed meter box or a sagging fascia can be shared by many neighbours, and rodents are quick to use them. It helps to look at the gap beside the meter box, the airbrick and the point where pipes exit through the wall, and then at the same spots next door.
We identify the pest, treat it, and give a free prevention survey with specific advice for your house type. If you have had mice before, tell us where. Gardens backing onto shared paths or green space can see rats following the same routes, which is worth mentioning when you call 0115 937 5117. We will explain why we suggest each step, so you are not left guessing about the cause or the next action after the visit is over.
Similar houses have similar weak points, and pests move along shared gardens, fences and paths. Dealing with your own entry points helps, though neighbours acting too gives better results. If you cannot agree a joint approach with neighbours, sealing your own entry points and keeping food and waste secure still lowers the chance of a repeat visit.
Fleas persist as eggs and pupae in carpets and can hatch when the house is warmed and people move around. Treatment plus regular vacuuming usually works, and we can advise on the specifics.

On a post-war estate, pigeons find the flat roofs, balconies and walkway ledges. Making those spots unusable is what actually moves them on.
