The Chesterfield Canal runs through this north Nottinghamshire market town, and waterside ground draws rats. We cover Retford homes and business premises.
Water, towpaths and vegetation give rats cover and routes, so properties near the Chesterfield Canal in Retford are more likely to see them. The older town-centre buildings add roof voids and rear yards, and the later housing around the edge has gardens that suit ants and wasps. Dense growth beside the water can hide burrows, and cutting back where safe, along with clearing rubbish, makes them easier to see and reduces cover.
We ask where you have seen signs, then inspect both the building and the grounds. Fixed cost pricing means you know what you are paying before we arrive. After treatment we give advice on waste, drains and gaps to help you stop pests returning. Properties near the towpath may see more activity in warm weather, so a seasonal check of the garden boundary and sheds is a good habit.
No. There are no call-out charges, and pricing is fixed so you know the cost before the visit. Rats can be attracted by bird feed and fallen fruit as well as waste, and we can advise what to change once we have seen the layout of your garden.
Keep bins closed, clear spilled food, trim dense cover near buildings and report burrows. We can check the boundary and show you what to change. If you are having doubts about a burrow, do not fill it in, as that may simply move the problem. Describe it to us and we will advise on what to do.

Gnawing above the bedroom at dawn and a trail of chewed bark in the garden: a loft in Retford can become a squirrel drey with surprising speed.
Read the advice →When the nights draw in and the fields and canal bank turn cold, rats look for a warm place with food. A garage, shed or cavity wall in Retford can fit the bill.
