Thorney Wood sits just east of the centre, with terraces beside later housing. We identify the pest, treat it and help you stop it coming back.
Close to Sneinton, Thorney Wood has Victorian terraces as well as housing built later, and the pests differ a little between them. Older terraces tend to have gaps in brickwork, old airbricks and shared roof spaces. Later homes more often have problems around loft hatches, garages and extensions. Gaps around cables, brickwork cracks and unsealed vents let mice in, so we examine these first, particularly on the older terraces nearer to Sneinton.
Whichever you live in, we begin by identifying the pest, because fleas, ants and mice can all look like the same nuisance at first. After treatment we do a free prevention survey. Late summer is a common time for wasp calls, and autumn is when more people notice mice moving in. If you have seen many wasps around one spot on the roof in late summer, note the location, as it helps us find the nest and plan access safely.
As the weather turns colder, from autumn onward, rats and mice look for warmth and food indoors. Sealing small gaps early helps, and we can show you where during a prevention survey. Cold snaps tend to push rodents indoors, so it is worth having the property checked before winter if you have heard faint sounds or found small droppings.
Later houses can have gaps around pipes, garages and loft access. Pests do not care about age. We check the structure and explain what is worth closing. Newer houses have fewer cracks in the brickwork, but gaps around pipes, loft hatches and garage doors are common. We check the structure and point out what is worth fixing.
No. There are no call-out charges, and prices are fixed so you know what you are paying before we arrive.
Before you buy any product, find out which insect you have. The shed skins in the bottom of a drawer say far more than the holes in the jumper.
