Why are rodents in Craiglockhart such a big concern
Damage to Craiglockhart Properties
With teeth capable of cutting through nearly any material, rats, mice, and squirrels can do extensive damage to the interior of any property they invade.
Fire Risk
Rats are responsible for a large number of property fires in the UK, due to their habit of gnawing on electrical wires. This damage to wiring often causes dangerous sparks that result in property fires.
Disease Spreading
Rodents are riddled with nasty diseases spreading them through droppings and, on rare occasions, bites. They come from dirty areas like sewers, spreading contamination wherever they pass.
Reputation Damage
For businesses, a rodent problem can be disastrous, damaging their reputation in the community. Our rodent experts are the best around, and will set up a tailored control plan to locate and remove any rodent presence in your building.
After we handle the infestation, we’ll reinforce your property with proofing measures. And we’ll provide useful tips for keeping rodents away from your property.
Bird Control Craiglockhart

Pest Bird Species in Craiglockhart
Feral Pigeons (Columba Livia)
Feral pigeons are taking over Craiglockhart. While they don’t have the same reputation as rats, they’re far from harmless.
They’re carriers of diseases such as E. coli and Salmonella, which humans can contract through accidental exposure to guano or by breathing in dust from dried droppings. They also cause significant roof damage and leave behind huge amounts of toxic droppings that corrode walkways, making surfaces slick and unsafe for everyone.
Gulls (Laridae)
People call them seagulls, but these birds are everywhere in Craiglockhart—and not only by the sea!
Gull proofing and nest removal are a big focus as part of our business-focused pest management services. Our durable netting can secure large warehouses and office blocks, providing tough, reliable protection against these persistent birds. We’re here to keep them off your property.
