Rodent control

Signs you have rats or mice

Rodents are most active at night, so the first clues are usually what they leave behind. Common signs include:

  • Droppings in cupboards, lofts, garages or outbuildings
  • Scratching or scurrying noises in walls, ceilings or under floors
  • Gnaw marks on food packaging, skirting boards, pipes or cables
  • Greasy smear marks along walls and runs through grass
  • Burrows near sheds, decking, compost heaps or drains

If you have spotted any of these, the sooner you act the easier the problem is to solve. We cover houses, rentals, holiday lets, commercial premises and farm buildings.

FAQs

Rat & mouse control FAQs

How quickly can you deal with rats or mice?

We offer a 24 hour emergency response across Ripon and North Yorkshire. Most rodent problems are resolved over a short series of visits, depending on the size of the infestation and how they are getting in.

Is rodent control safe for children and pets?

Yes. We choose methods and placement carefully so that treatments are out of reach of children, pets and non-target animals, and we explain everything before we start.

How do I stop rats coming back?

Proofing is the key. Blocking gaps around pipes, vents, doors and drains, removing food sources and keeping bins sealed all help. We will point out every entry point we find.

Do you deal with rats on farms and commercial sites?

Yes. We provide rodent control for farms, stables, food premises, warehouses and other businesses, including ongoing programmes for sites at higher risk.
