A small minster town with older property and farmland around it. We deal with the mice, wasps and moths that come with that setting.
Small and old, Southwell has stone and brick houses with thick walls, cellars and quirky roof spaces. Farmland and orchards around the town bring wasps in late summer, especially where windfall fruit lies, and rodents that move closer to houses in autumn. Older furnishings in period homes can also attract moths. Orchard trees, garden fruit and compost all attract wasps and rodents, so we suggest regular clearing and covered bins for kitchen waste.
We identify the pest, treat it and give free advice that suits an older house, since you may not want holes drilled or old features altered. If you keep stored fruit or garden produce, let us know. Taking away windfalls and keeping stores sealed can reduce wasp and rodent interest. Wool rugs, tapestries and soft furnishings in older homes need an occasional check for holes, silk cases or small moths, particularly in rooms that are seldom used.
Wasps feed on sugary fallen fruit, particularly in late summer. Clearing windfalls regularly can reduce their interest, though nests need dealing with separately. Wasps feed on sweet foods, so clearing windfalls and keeping fruit stores covered helps, but a nest in the roof or wall still needs professional attention.
We aim to. Proofing is advised to suit the building, and we explain the options before any work begins. We choose proofing and treatment that respect the age of the building, and we agree each step with you first, so older features are left as they are.
No. There are no call-out charges, and prices are fixed so you know what you are paying before we arrive.
A cafe near the minster, a pub with a cellar or a farm shop on the edge of town: each needs a plan, and a visitor is likely to notice a pest before you do.
