Issues rodents pose in Gorgie
Damage to Gorgie Properties
Armed with teeth that can tear through almost anything, rats, mice, and squirrels can do extensive damage to the interior of any property they invade.
Fire Risk
In the UK, rats are one of the top culprits behind property fires. By biting through wiring, they can cause sparking that leads to serious, often costly fires.
Disease Spreading
Rodents bring a range of unpleasant diseases with them, and they spread these illnesses through droppings or, rarely, bites. They also crawl through filthy places like sewers, leaving a trail of dirt and contamination wherever they go.
Reputation Damage
For a business, a rodent infestation can be disastrous, creating lasting harm to their standing in the community. Our team has the expertise to handle it all, carrying out a highly effective plan to remove rodents from your premises.
Once we’ve handled the infestation, we’ll add proofing to keep them from coming back. We’ll also offer guidance on ways to prevent future rodent issues.
Bird Control Gorgie
The population of feral pigeons and gulls is growing in cities everywhere, and Gorgie is seeing the same trend. When it comes to pest birds, you often need a specialist to handle the job. Techniques such as bird proofing need special equipment and expertise to be effective.
Take a look at our Gorgie services to see all the pest control options available to help you deal with these pesky birds.
Pest Bird Species in Gorgie
Feral Pigeons (Columba Livia)
Pigeons are everywhere in Gorgie. While they might not have the same reputation as rats, they can still cause real harm.
These birds carry diseases like E. coli and Salmonella, which can infect humans through accidental exposure to their droppings or by breathing in particles from dried guano. Their droppings erode rooftops, corrode pathways, and create slippery walkways.
Gulls (Laridae)
People call them seagulls, but they’re seen throughout Gorgie—and not only by the sea!
Our commercial services focus heavily on gull proofing and nest removal as part of our solutions for commercial properties. Our durable netting can protect spacious warehouses and office complexes, giving you sturdy defence against these persistent birds. We’re here to keep them off your property.

Insect Control Gorgie
Insects are small, but insects can do a lot of damage. From damaging property to posing health hazards, they’re a serious issue for locals in Gorgie.
Insects come in many shapes and sizes, and every insect problem is unique. But the one constant? Edinburgh Pest Control Co. knows how to handle each one of them—all at an affordable rate.
These are a few of the insect species we control in Gorgie and the surrounding area:
Bed bugs
Bed bugs are among the most persistent pests to handle, causing significant discomfort. They make getting a good night’s sleep difficult and turn a sanctuary into a place to avoid.
Our team delivers an effective bed bug removal plan, highly recommended for households dealing with bed bugs.
We have also assisted numerous shared occupancy properties, such as hotels and student housing across Gorgie, addressing serious bed bug problems.
Wasps
In the warmer months, it is common to find wasp nests positioned under roof edges or in attics across Gorgie.
We conduct safe and efficient nest removals, eliminating the need for you to risk encountering a group of aggressive wasps.
Moths
Moths might not attack humans, but they can devastate your finest rugs, carpets, and clothes in a matter of days.
Safeguard your valued items with our expert moth removal service. Our team is highly trained in effective moth control.
Cockroaches
Cockroaches are both unpleasant and hazardous, and they’re seen in the UK more frequently than one might think. We often handle both American and German cockroaches here at Edinburgh Pest Control Co..
Bees
Bees are a protected species, not pests, which means we don’t handle them.
If you need assistance with bees, a local beekeeper in Gorgie is your best option.
