Problems with rodents in Preston
Damage to Preston Properties
Rats, mice, and squirrels have teeth that can chew through just about anything, and they can do a surprising amount of harm to the inside of your property fast.
Fire Risk
Rats are responsible for a large number of property fires in the UK, because they commonly chew through wiring. This gnawing often results in hazardous sparking that can cause severe damage.
Disease Spreading
Rodents carry a variety of unpleasant diseases, which they can spread through their droppings and, on rare occasions, bites. These pests travel through dirty areas like sewers, spreading filth as they move.
Reputation Damage
For businesses, a rodent infestation can be devastating, leading to serious damage to their reputation within the community. Our expert team will implement a targeted control plan to identify and remove any rodents from your property.
Once we handle the immediate issue, we’ll secure your property with proofing. Additionally, we’ll provide guidance on keeping your space rodent-free in the future.
Bird Control Preston
Pigeons and gulls are making a comeback in cities nationwide, and Preston is part of this trend. Getting rid of pest birds often needs specialized help—bird proofing and other methods are challenging and require the right tools, training, and experience to get results.

Pest Bird Species in Preston
Feral Pigeons (Columba Livia)
Pigeons are commonly seen throughout Preston. They might not be as feared as rats and mice, their potential for damage is substantial.
Pigeons carry harmful diseases such as E. coli and Salmonella, which can be transmitted to humans through accidental ingestion of guano or inhalation of particles. Their droppings can corrode roofs and make walkways dangerously slick and hazardous.
Gulls (Laridae)
They’re known as seagulls, but you’ll find them all over Preston—and not only by the sea!
Gull proofing and nest removal are a big focus as part of our solutions for commercial properties. Our strong netting can protect spacious warehouses and office blocks, giving you sturdy defence against these persistent birds. We’re here to keep them off your property.

Insect Control Preston
Insects may be tiny, but the damage they cause sure isn’t. These little critters pack a serious punch when it comes to harming property and public health, and never stop bothering Preston residents.
Insects come in a huge range of shapes and sizes, and no two insect pest problems are ever quite the same. One thing that’s always consistent, however, is the expertise of Edinburgh Pest Control Co. in offering cost-effective pest control for every kind of insect problem.
Just some of the many insect species we help with in the Preston area and beyond include:
Bed bugs
Few pests are as unsettling as bed bugs, disrupting sleep and turning a home into a place of discomfort. They can make a peaceful home feel unwelcoming.
Our professionals can help restore comfort with our bed bug treatment, a highly rated option among our residential services.
We have also worked with a range of communal properties across Preston, like hotels and student residences, to eliminate large-scale infestations.

We can remove these safely and quickly, saving you from the danger of confronting a host of furious wasps.
Moths
Moths aren’t out to hurt people, but they can absolutely destroy valuable fabrics faster than you’d think.
Defend your cherished items with expert moth control. We’ll make sure your valuable items are protected from these hungry insects.
Cockroaches
Revolting and dangerous at the same time, cockroaches show up in the UK more often than you’d expect. American and German cockroaches are two types we frequently tackle at Edinburgh Pest Control Co..
Bees
As a protected species, bees are not classified as pests, so we don’t handle them as part of our pest control services.
For any bee-related concerns, please reach out to a Preston-based beekeeper.
