Quiet semi-detached streets around Woodthorpe Park still get their share of rodents and wasps. We deal with them and help you shut them out.
Homes beside open green space often see more wildlife passing through, and in Woodthorpe the pests that follow are mostly rats in gardens, mice in garages and wasps in the loft. Inter-war and post-war semis share common weak points: airbricks, gaps by the boiler flue and the join where an extension meets the old wall. A tidy garden edge, cut-back shrubs and no scraps on the ground cut off much of the cover that rodents depend on.
When you ring, tell us what you saw, where and at what time of day. That alone often points us towards the pest. We deal with the infestation and give free advice, covering the garden as well as the building. Fallen fruit, pet food and open compost are common unnoticed attractions for rodents. If you have a garage attached to the house, check the door seal and any gap beneath it, because it is a frequent mouse route into the home.
Usually because food or shelter is available: compost, pet food, bird seed or dense cover. Remove the attractions and call us so the activity can be identified and dealt with. Seal waste bins, stop feeding birds by hand on the ground and report any burrows near the house, then call us so we can confirm what animal is behind them.
Yes, though the pets need treating separately through your vet. Fleas persist as eggs and pupae in carpets, so treating the home matters too. We will explain what the visit involves. Ring 0115 937 5117 if you want it explained.
No. There are no call-out charges, and prices are fixed so you know what you are paying before we arrive.
When the evenings turn cold, the rats that have been living outside look for somewhere warmer. A semi next to a park can look very inviting indeed.
Read the advice →A cockroach in a family semi comes as a shock, and the first reaction is often embarrassment. They are far more often carried in than invited.
