Rat Control
Rats are among the most common pests in UK homes and businesses, often entering through small gaps in search of food, warmth and shelter. Signs of an infestation include droppings, gnaw marks, burrows and scratching noises in lofts or wall cavities. Our technicians use professional baiting, humane trapping and proofing techniques to remove rats quickly and stop them returning. We also offer ongoing monitoring for high-risk properties.
Mice can squeeze through gaps as small as 6mm, making them notoriously difficult to keep out. Look out for small dark droppings, chewed packaging, nesting materials and scratching sounds at night. We treat mouse infestations using targeted baiting, trapping and entry-point proofing, followed by a full inspection to prevent future access. Ideal for homes, flats and commercial kitchens.
Ant nests are often found near foundations, patios and skirting boards, with visible trails leading indoors in search of food. We treat ant infestations at the source using gel baits, residual sprays and nest treatments — fast, effective and safe for use around family and pets.
Cockroaches are a serious hygiene risk, spreading bacteria and triggering allergies. Signs include droppings, egg cases, a musty odour and sightings at night, particularly in kitchens and bathrooms. Our exterminators use targeted baiting and insecticidal treatments to eliminate infestations quickly, with follow-up visits to ensure complete eradication.
Wasp nests typically appear in lofts, sheds, eaves and wall cavities between spring and autumn, with activity increasing rapidly once a nest is established. Our trained technicians safely locate and remove wasp nests using protective equipment and specialist treatments, eliminating the colony with minimal disruption.
Bed bugs hide in mattresses, bed frames and soft furnishings, feeding at night and leaving itchy bites and blood spots on bedding. We use professional-grade treatments to eliminate bed bugs at every life stage, along with mattress encasement and follow-up checks. Ideal for homes, hotels and rental properties.
From cluster flies and fruit flies to moths and other nuisance flying insects, these pests can quickly become a problem in homes and commercial kitchens. We identify breeding sources and entry points, then apply targeted treatments and preventative measures such as fly screens and UV traps.
Moles can cause significant damage to lawns and gardens, creating unsightly mounds and ridges as they tunnel just beneath the surface. Our mole control service uses humane trapping methods to remove moles effectively, protecting your garden without harmful chemicals.
Flour beetles, grain weevils, clothes moths and other stored product insects (SPIs) can contaminate food and damage fabrics, often going unnoticed until an infestation is well established. We treat SPIs using safe, targeted insecticides alongside environmental management advice — ideal for homes and food businesses.
Grey squirrels may look harmless, but they can cause serious damage by nesting in lofts, chewing electrical wiring and contaminating insulation. Common in suburban and wooded areas, our service includes humane trapping, exclusion work and proofing to prevent squirrels re-entering your property.
Pigeons roosting and nesting on roofs, ledges and solar panels can cause mess, blocked guttering and damage from acidic droppings. We install bird netting, spike systems and solar panel guards to deter roosting safely and effectively.
Seagulls can become aggressive during nesting season, causing noise, mess and damage to roofs and chimneys. Our service includes proofing, netting and spike systems to prevent nesting, along with licensed removal of nests and eggs where required.

Ben dealt expertly and efficiently with what I thought was a house fly infestation. His careful questioning during our initial phone call established that the insects were in fact bluebottles and that the underlying problem was likely to be a dead rodent in my property. Ben undertook a full rodent survey - identifying possible access points and finding a dead rat in an inaccessible place. He then sealed all the obvious access points, so my house is now rodent proof. I can't recommend Strathclyde Pest Control highly enough - a very professional, evidenced-based, reasonably priced and friendly service.

Booked the firm for a suspected wasp nest. Ben was really helpful, competent, knowledgeable and friendly. The wasp treatment worked really efficiently and was very reasonably priced, with no extra charges, even though the actual wasp nest was not on our house so two areas required treatment. Highly recommend.

Excellent service from start to finish. This is the first time I have had to use pest control due to rats coming into my home, Ben was brilliant from start to finish, he got rid of the rats within two days, found the locations they were coming in from and put in place measures so they couldn't use them in future. Cannot recommend this company highly enough, extremely knowledgeable, efficient and quick service and very good value for money. Ben was really lovely and made me feel so much better about the situation - will definately use again when/if I need pest control in future!
