The week started with a mole control treatment in Fairford. The damage one sole mole had made to the garden here was incredible. One mole had created a tunnel system spanning the entire garden! We have years of experience in mole trapping within Gloucestershire and...
We were called out to a property in Gloucester this week to identify how rats have been entering the house. The customers had battled with rat infestations for several years and treatments completed by other pest control companies had failed to eradicate the rats for...
It’s a ‘moley’ kinda day today, mole trapping set up in Fairford followed by a return visit to a site in Chalford where 4 moles had been successfully caught. We are in the height of the mole breeding season now and we are definitely feeling it this week!!
Ever heard of 'neophobia'? This is the term used to describe a fear of anything new and is something seen regularly in rats. Here we explore this further and how this behaviour can affect rat treatments and controlling these pests. What is Neophobia? Neophobia, as...
After reports of hearing noises in a loft in Stroud we set up a camera to identify the pest at large and lo and behold, Mr. Ratty made an appearance! Wildlife camera surveys are a key tool in our investigations when noises are being heard where other physical...
Check out our video below of a mouse and his buddy at a job we started in Painswick this week! Video: Mouse in Painswick Motion sensor cameras are an imperative piece of equipment to have when trying to determine what pest you are dealing with when no other evidence...
The wildlife camera caught this squirrel in action this week, who has been running rampant through the loft at this property in Stroud. Cage traps have now been set up to manage the problem to prevent the squirrel causing any further damage inside the property....
A visit to Gloucester today to install a bird scarer on the roof of a commercial building. Feral pigeons have been causing real health and safety issues on the site so this is step one in the process to deter them. Contact us to learn more about the bird control...
This week we treated a property in Cirencester for a severe bed bug infestation. This was one of the most serious infestations we have come across (and we have treated a lot of properties for bed bugs!) and this picture is just a small sample of the critters we found!...
Installing bird netting in Dursley to prevent birds soiling the paths below. After many years of dealing with bird guano covering the footpaths the site administrator for the building contacted us to install bird netting. As you can see, the pigeons had managed to...
We are now mid-season for wasp nests and the jobs are coming in thick and fast for us to eradicate these common summer/autumn pests. This wasp nest treatment was carried out in Stonehouse and clearly shows the nest itself, which has been carefully constructed by the...
One of the many services we offer is loft cleaning and disinfecting when there have been previous pest infestations. This week we removed all soiled loft insulation, vacuumed mice droppings and cluster flies on the flooring and followed up by disinfecting the area and...
Pictures taken at a property today before we carried out a moth treatment in Cirencester. The extensive damage caused by these pesky pests is clear to see. Left untreated moth infestations can cause irreversible damage to any natural fibres, such as wool, fur,...
A wet and rainy pigeon cull today, a crucial part of the bird control programme we have underway at a local farm in Slimbridge. Feral pigeons had been ruling the roost at this farm for many months prior to the customer contacting us. We are already seeing a huge...
I am amazed at the complete disregard rats have towards any human presence at the moment, as you can see from this photo (taken at a property in Stroud). Their current desperation for food is leading to adaptations in their behaviour - to be out during the day and...
With the majority of food premises closed for business during the Covid-19 pandemic the food sources rats and mice would usually have available, largely from waste disposal areas, have reduced drastically. Our customers are therefore finding an increase in rodents...
Today we have visited a beautiful property in Cirencester to undertake a Homebuyer Pest Control Survey following the client being advised that there were signs of a possible rat or mouse infestation. We identified multiple mouse droppings in the loft and garage area...

You may have noticed larger than average wasps in or around your home as the weather is warming. These are Queen Wasps, the 'mothers' of wasp nests which will soon become fully active mid-May. They will be busy seeking an ideal location to begin building the first...
