In a village with open countryside on all sides, rats are never far away. We help Watnall households find the way in and keep them out.
Village life next to open countryside means rats have somewhere to live outside and a reason to come in when the weather turns. Outbuildings, log stores, poultry runs and feed bins are the typical draws, and older village houses often have gaps in stonework, under floors and at eaves. Watnall's closeness to Nuthall and Kimberley makes little difference to a rat, which will travel as far as there is cover.
We survey the house and outbuildings together, as the real source is often a shed, barn or garden store. Treatment is by baiting or trapping according to the animals and people on site, and we explain how to store feed so it stays out of reach. Our technicians are fully insured and happy to book a visit around your day.
Keep feed in lidded metal or heavy plastic bins, clear spilled grain daily and avoid leaving full feeders out overnight. Rats can gnaw through thin plastic, so check containers regularly for damage.
Often, yes, as there is more cover and food nearby. It does not mean you have done anything wrong. Proofing and tidy storage are the main defences, and we can show you the weak points.
Rats come for food, water and shelter. Accessible waste, open drains, bird feed and gaps in buildings can all draw them in.

Ants walking in a neat line are following a scent trail. Follow it back to find the entry point, and sometimes the nest itself, before the colony settles in.
