Our rodent control service provides fast, effective solutions for rats, mice and squirrels across Glasgow’s homes and managed properties.

Our Glasgow-Focused Rodent Prevention
Our rodent control programme combines targeted baiting, strategic trap placement, smart trail‑camera monitoring and professional proofing to deliver a complete, long‑term solution.
We use a structured approach that begins with safe, effective baiting and trap deployment to quickly reduce activity. Smart trail cameras help us confirm movement, identify entry points and track progress.
Once activity is under control, we carry out thorough proofing to seal gaps, holes and structural defects, preventing rodents from returning and ensuring long‑term protection for the property.
Our Treatment Process
Inspection & Assessment
During the initial inspection, our technician completes a thorough assessment of the property. This includes a full internal and external check of all relevant areas, looking for signs of pest activity, entry points and environmental factors that may be contributing to the issue.
The technician will speak with the occupant to gather information, understand what they have experienced and provide reassurance throughout the visit.
Our approach ensures tenants feel informed and comfortable while we identify the cause of the problem and outline the appropriate next steps.
Targeted Methods
Our targetted methods involve placing traps or bait stations in specific locations where rodent activity has been identified.
This approach focuses on the areas most likely to be used by rodents, such as behind kitchen units, in loft spaces, or near confirmed entry points.
By using targeted traps or bait stations, we control the issue efficiently while keeping treatments safe, contained and appropriate for the property. These methods are selected based on evidence found during the inspection and are designed to provide effective, professional control with minimal disruption to occupants.
Proofing & Prevention
We provide full pest‑proofing services that go beyond basic sealing work.
Our technicians remove and reinstate kitchen units, kickboards and white goods to access hard‑to‑reach areas where rodents commonly enter.
This comprehensive approach ensures all ingress points are identified and sealed during the visit, reducing the need for property managers to bring in multiple contractors and delivering a complete, efficient solution.
Support & Advice
We provide clear support and advice to help occupants understand what’s happening and how to prevent issues in the future.
Our technicians offer practical guidance during each visit, answer any questions, and ensure occupants feel reassured throughout the process.
This includes simple prevention tips, safe housekeeping measures, and advice tailored to the property’s layout and activity.
FAQs
What are the most common rodent entry points in Glasgow properties?
Rodents typically enter through gaps in brickwork, spaces around utility pipes, and damaged roof eaves common in older Glasgow tenements and modern builds alike.
How can I effectively proof my home against rats and mice?
The best method is physical exclusion: sealing entry points with professional-grade materials like stainless steel mesh and ensuring all external doors and vents are properly fitted.
Do I need more than one visit?
Most rodent treatments require a short programme of visits to monitor bait, adjust traps, review trail‑camera footage, carry out proofing works and ensure activity is fully under control before proofing.
