rodent pest control

Rodents pose a wide range of risks to homes and businesses, which if not dealt with quickly and effectively can lead to serious and escalating consequences. From significant property damage caused by gnawing and burrowing, to life-threating health risks brought about by the spread of bacteria and disease.

We not only remove current infestations but also ensure long-term prevention, protecting your property and the environment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key signs of rodent activity?

Look out for rodent droppings. Fresh droppings are shiny and soft, hardening and losing their sheen after a couple of days. Mouse droppings are small (3-6mm) and pointed, while rat droppings are larger (up to 12mm) and semi-pointed. Grey squirrel droppings are around 9mm with rounded ends; they can fade over time.

Greasy marks on surfaces are another indicator, often seen in larger infestations. Other signs include dead rodents, a musty smell from urine, damaged product/packaging, footprints, tunnels, squeaking and gnawing sounds at night, and bite marks on wood, cables, or even metal, as rodents constantly gnaw to keep their ever-growing teeth sharp.

What treatment methods do you use to control rodents?

Nurture Pest Control is a trusted expert in rodent control, offering thorough site assessments to pinpoint the extent of the problem, identify nesting areas, and take environmental factors into account.

If rodent activity is found, we’ll develop a bespoke integrated pest management plan. This may include:

  • Sealing holes inside and outside your property to prevent entry
  • Rodent traps strategically placed to control the rodent population.
  • Tamper-resistant bait stations and rodenticides, in some instances.

Every solution is customised to the scale and specifics of your infestation.

Protect your property and the people within it. Reach out to us today for a tailored, effective rodent control solution.

Do you use live capture traps?

We do not use live capture traps, as keeping a rodent confined without regular access to food is inhumane. Many so-called “humane” traps available on the market are only truly humane if they are monitored frequently, otherwise, the rodent is left trapped without food, potentially leading to starvation.

Instead, we rely on humane rodent traps designed for efficiency and compassion. These traps are compact, easy to install, and ensure rodents are dispatched quickly and humanely, minimising suffering.

The use of live capture traps may be deployed if there is a risk of catching a protected species such as a water vole. Their use is very strictly monitored as to trap any animal in a cage and not check it regularly can lead to unnecessary suffering. Where protected species are not at risk, the technician conducts a risk assessment to determine whether humane rodent traps may be used, thereby reducing the need to use chemicals in the environment.
