Rodent Control in Fountainbridge
Rats and mice are a real nightmare around Fountainbridge. They sneak into walls, chew through cables, and carry disease that nobody wants near their home or business.
But don’t stress—we’re on it. Pest Solutions handles these pests with care and control. We don’t just get rid of the rats. We set you up with protection that lasts, so you can breathe easy again.
We always begin by taking a good look your place. Things like little messes, chewing damage, or bits of shredded stuff help us get a sense of their path. Once we have a clear picture, we build a solution that’s fit for what’s going on and deals with the real problem.
Rat Control Fountainbridge
Meet the brown rat—Rattus norvegicus. It’s the go-to rat in the UK, and in Fountainbridge, it turns up often, from backyards to shop floors.
Rats are more than just a nuisance—they’re a serious problem. They carry diseases like leptospirosis, salmonella, and hantavirus, putting health on the line. They also gnaw nonstop—insulation, pipes, timber, and wires are all on the menu. That kind of damage? It gets expensive quick and can even spark a fire.
It starts with the little things. A line of droppings shaped like grains of rice. A soft scratching behind the wall late at night. A strange musky smell creeping through the room. These are the early warnings. As time goes on, they leave clearer marks—chewed wood, frayed wires, and greasy trails worn into the edges of walls. These signs demand attention.
Our technicians are trained to evaluate fully how bad the rat problem is, locate entry points, and identify harbourage areas. Then, we build a strategy that uses baiting, trapping, and simple prevention tips to deal with the issue. We also offer guidance on things like drain inspections, sealing openings, and cleaning routines to help prevent re-infestation. The goal is always preventing future issues, not just a short-term result.
Mouse Control
House mice (Mus musculus) are a frequent pest in Fountainbridge, especially in properties that provide heat and available food sources. Their small size allows them to sneak in via tiny gaps as narrow as 6mm. Once inside, they’re commonly found nesting in attics, behind cookers and fridges, inside walls, or in shelving.
Mice are always moving and multiply rapidly, which means a tiny infestation can become a serious issue within a few weeks. Telltale signs include tiny black droppings, especially in cupboards or along the walls, gnaw marks, smudges near cracks, and sometimes a faint musty odour. You may also hear soft noises or movement in ceilings or walls, most often at night.
We deliver prompt and targeted mouse control through a mix of approved trapping tools, secure bait points, and targeted proofing materials. Our technicians also give recommendations on food storage, hygiene practices, and rubbish management to reduce future risk. Where required, we can supply a detailed proofing report for property managers.
Squirrel Control
Grey squirrels. Looks nice, causes chaos. Serious pest in Fountainbridge and on the rise. If they break into the roof, expect disruption, mess, and grief.
Squirrels chew wires. That means leaks, fire hazards, noise. We remove them humanely, stay legal, and block them from coming back. Need permits? We handle it.
Bird Control in Fountainbridge
Urban bird species such as pigeons and gulls are frequently found in towns and cities, but when they nest or roost on buildings, they pose real risks. Bird droppings are damaging and can cause long-term damage to building materials, while nesting materials may obstruct water flow and increase the risk of fire hazards. Additionally, birds can carry harmful pathogens and parasites, making them a threat to public health.
At Pest Solutions, we are experts in bird control methods that are non-harmful, humane, and fully aligned with current wildlife laws. Our technicians work across Fountainbridge and across the UK, managing bird-related issues on a wide range of premises, including retail units, educational facilities, flats, commercial buildings, and warehouses.At Pest Solutions, we specialise in bird control methods that are non-harmful, animal-welfare focused, and fully legally compliant.

Whether it’s a few birds or piles of guano, our licensed team has the gear and know-how to get it sorted.
Insect Control Fountainbridge
Insects are a frequent problem for homes and businesses across Fountainbridge. Wasps in roof voids, bed bugs in guest spaces, and pests in food areas are just a few of the issues that can get serious fast if left unchecked.
It’s not just that insects are gross—they can also affect your health, and make it harder to keep your place clean or up to standard. Our pest control team knows how to spot and treat all the usual bugs you’ll see in houses, shops, and shared spaces. We deal with everything from wasps and bed bugs to roaches, pet-related pests, ants, closet invaders, and more.
Each insect species has specific patterns and traits, which is why effective control depends on a custom approach. Our first step is always a full inspection to pinpoint the species, assess the level of activity, and plan a solution.
Common insect pests we treat in Fountainbridge include:
- Wasps and hornets
- Bed bugs
- Cockroaches (German and Oriental species)
- Fleas
- Ants (black garden and pharaoh ants)
- Flies (cluster, fruit, drain, bluebottle and filter flies)
