Pest Bird Control Service in Edinburgh

Pest Birds and related issues can pose a major health & safety risk as well as having the potential to severely damage buildings and structures. Our specialist Edinburgh Bird Control team is here to protect you from the effects of bird-related issues.

Bird fouling can cause a risk of slips and falls as well as being a transmission route for a number of bacteria and disease-causing pathogens. Being acidic it can also damage and stain stonework and paint on the buildings and structures throughout Edinburgh. When deposited in bulk it can also cause damage due to its ability to hold moisture and the sheer weight of guano that can be deposited. It is also a breeding ground for many insect pests.

Feral Pigeons and their nesting sites can also cause a nuisance and larger birds such as Gulls (Seagulls) can also become highly aggressive during the breeding season.

The population of nuisance birds is on the rise with numbers of Pigeons and Gulls in the city of Edinburgh continue to increase and the associated risks of these birds also grow with it. Our Bird Control team are experienced and highly trained in the use of many effective control measures that can be deployed to control these species and protect people and buildings throughout the East of Scotland.

Bird Proofing. Effective methods of control and management include:

  • Bird Netting Systems
  • Spike & Wire Systems
  • Laser Deterrent Systems
  • Electronic Bird Scarers
  • Falconry for Pest Control Services

One of our surveyors can attend and carry out a FREE Survey to assess the issue you are experiencing with pest birds and provide a proposal detailing the available options to tackle both the issue you are currently experiencing and to protect your home, business, building or structure from the effects of birds in the future.

We are also able to advise and assist on all requirements relating to Licencing as all species are protected by law and as of April 1st 2020 in many cases (excluding Feral Pigeons & Canada Geese) a special licence may have to be applied for in order to take any action legally. Make sure to get the right advice to ensure you are not unknowingly breaking the law.

Call us 0131 526 3220 today for more information or a FREE Survey and a no-obligation quote for any problems.

Pest Species we deal with in Edinburgh

The city of Edinburgh has become large and sprawling with many areas of residential and commercial buildings, both very old and very modern. As pests like to live in close proximity to humans, we see a number of pests that like to try and exploit our homes and businesses.

Protect your property from unwanted guests. From Wasp Nests to Bed Bugs, from a Mouse sighting to a plague of Rats or Cockroaches or pest controllers have the skills and expertise to deal with the removal of an infestation or problem to ensure the security of your family or business.

Common pests found in Edinburgh and the Scottish East Coast area include:

Rat Control Edinburgh

When it comes to pest problems with Rats, Edinburgh as a city, with its network of older buildings connected by subterranean voids tunnels is especially vulnerable. We are here to protect your family safety or business reputation from the health risk associated with a rodent or rat infestation. If you are suffering from the experience of a Rat problem, call us today and have a professional pest controller attend today. Signs of a Rat problem include sightings, a smell, droppings, smear marks and damage to materials or structures from gnawing.

Mice Control 

Edinburgh has a history of significant and well-established mouse infestations. The older properties with their interconnected cavity walls and voids provide ample access points for a mice problem to develop rapidly. Signs of mice are similar to that of Rats, but the droppings are considerably smaller. Mice can gain access through gaps as small as 6mm so can easily gain access through even the smallest of holes. We are ready to provide a fast response to deal with mouse activity and safeguard your property.

Common Garden Ants

This Ant will normally build nests in the ground outside, but the workers will regularly invade our homes and businesses to search for sugary food residues to help support the colony and its growth. Most DIY treatments for Ants are ineffective against these insects. Call the professionals today for more information or to solve this problem.

Wasp Nest Removal

Edinburgh. Referred to an as a Byke, a Wasps nest can be built in an attic, wall cavities, subfloor or in the ground as they are able to exploit a number of different areas in a home or other building. We always recommend leaving a Wasp Nest removal to the trained professionals with the knowledge and expertise to safely and effectively solve this Wasp Nest pest problem.

Bees

These essential insects are declining in numbers and should not be controlled unless they pose an immediate health and safety risk. They will rarely sting and should be allowed to remain at all costs to allow them to pollinate our plants and flowers.

Dermestes Beetles

This genus includes species such as Hide Beetle and Larder Beetle and is one of the most common pest infestation types that we deal with on a day to day basis. Often found in kitchens, bathrooms and living rooms especially at the wall/floor edge of carpets or wooden floors.

Varied Carpet Beetle

Often found on the windowsills in carpeted rooms where they feed on any skin, hair, dust or food debris that gather in the fibres of the carpets.

Cockroaches

In most cases, a Cockroach infestation will occur in the warm and humid areas of a home or building. In the UK we most commonly experience German Cockroaches & Oriental Cockroaches.

Bed Bugs

These biting insects can cause significant distress and seriously impact the reputation of hospitality companies. These parasites feed on human blood and require only the presence of a host to thrive. A Bed Bug infestation requires a high level of skill and experience to correctly eradicate. A Bed Bug treatment should consist of either a traditional insecticidal application of 4 or more visits or heat treatment. Incorrect or incomplete eradication of Bedbugs can be a costly mistake. Get the right advice about how to get rid of Bed Bugs today.

Fleas

Cat Fleas are one of the most common species of biting insect that is found in domestic and commercial buildings. Infesting not only homes with a pet present it is possible to pick up Fleas in many public spaces and take them home. They will mostly bite on the arms and legs and often in a straight line of 3 bites along the seam of clothing.

Flies / Flying Insects

There are many kinds of Flying Insects that will affect us in the UK including Blue Bottles, Green Bottles, House Fly, Lesser House Fly, Cluster Flies, Fruit Flies, Drain Fly and more.

Moths

There are a number of moth species that affect us in the UK that mostly fall into the category of textile pests which affect fabrics or stored product insects which affect some raw or milled food ingredients.

Grey Squirrels

Harmless when they remain outside. But, classed as vermin when entering our homes by climbing walls and entering the loft they can cause a lot of damage. Grey Squirrels, like all rodents, need to chew constantly to keep their teeth at a manageable length. They don’t care if that is a roof joist, a water pipe or and electricity cable.

Rabbits

Requires the expert knowledge of our wildlife trained technicians.

Moles

With restrictions to traditional methods of gassing it is now often much more effective to trap for Moles to prevent damage to ground or risk to livestock.

Pigeons

Methods of control include trapping & shooting where appropriate. The more effective preventative method of bird proofing such as the installation of netting or spikes will provide long term results.

Gulls (Seagulls)

Effective control of aggressive behaviour during their breeding season is important to protect the health & safety of people nearby. However, with a special licence required for any Gull control, it is now more important than ever to get the right advice and guidance from the experts.

Call our Edinburgh based team on 0131 526 3220 for more information or to arrange a call out.

What To Expect When You Call Pest Solutions Edinburgh

We are here when you need us. When you call you will get through to a helpful member of our office support team who will ask you some simple questions in order to allow us to help you in the best way we can.

We will ask for information about what you have seen or experienced; where you have seen the issue, and any other evidence you have noted that may allow us to make a suitable diagnosis of the pest problem you are experiencing. This information may allow us to diagnose the most effective solution and treatment plan over the phone and immediately allow us to get you booked in for a friendly member of our team to attend and get the work required underway.

pest-control-edinburgh-trapping

If we are unable to establish the pest you are experiencing an issue with or the extent of the issue over the phone, don’t worry, one of your experienced surveyors can attend to carry out a FREE Survey to determine the right course of action.

Identification Surveys are always free of charge. However, an Investigative or Height Surveys may be chargeable at our standard rate of £60+vat with this fee refunded against your treatment quote should you wish to proceed.

We will always aim to have a member of our team with you as quickly as possible. Our Technicians will normally call to arrange an appointment within a 2hr time slot at a time to suit you within 24hrs of your booking. However, we always endeavour to be with you the same day whenever possible.

Our 24hr Pest Control Edinburgh helpline is always available to provide expert assistance at any time of day. We would always recommend that Domestic bookings be scheduled during standard working hours to avoid the need to incur any out of hours call out charges. Most pest issues require more than one treatment visit, so it is often the case that no real advantage is gained by incurring the cost of an out of hours call out charge. Yes, we could charge you more for these services, but we pride ourselves in always giving honest, professional advice at a fair price.
