Rodent Control in Prestonpans
Rats. Mice. Serious threat in Prestonpans. They rip wires, carry disease, and only get worse.
That’s where we come in. Pest Solutions removes them fast and keeps them out. Full service. No shortcuts. Clean. Controlled. Sorted.
Our process begins with a thorough inspection of your property, focusing on common markers of rodent activity such as droppings, chewed surfaces, and gathered debris. By assessing the severity and spread of the infestation, we can design a treatment plan that is both focused on the correct pest and aligned with the underlying causes, delivering long-term effectiveness.
Rat Control Prestonpans
The brown rat, or Rattus norvegicus, is the most typical rat species in the UK. In Prestonpans, it’s often encountered in both domestic and business properties.
Rats aren’t just creepy—they carry dangerous diseases like leptospirosis (Weil’s disease), salmonella, and hantavirus that can put your health at risk. On top of that, they wreck things like insulation, pipes, wooden beams, and even electrical cables, which can really add up or even cause a fire.
Some of the first signs of a rat problem include droppings that resemble large grains of rice, odd noises at night from inside walls or beneath the boards, and strong, musky odours in sealed-off areas. If the infestation is well developed, you may also notice gnawed wood, plastic, or wiring, and greasy lines along skirting boards where rats have been moving.
When rats make their way inside, our team knows what to look for. They walk through every corner, following their path, noting where they rest, and learning the layout like a story told in clues. Then comes the plan—careful baiting, targeted action, and tweaks to the space that make it less welcoming. We’ll advise on surveying sewer lines, proofing the structure, and tidying up routines. It’s not just about dealing with the moment—it’s about making sure they don’t return.
Mouse Control
House mice (Mus musculus) are a common pest across Prestonpans, especially in properties that offer easy access to comfortable nesting conditions. Due to their small size and pliable skeletons, they can squeeze through openings as narrow as 6mm. Once indoors, they typically take refuge in areas such as attic insulation, behind cookers and fridges, within partition walls, and in cupboards.
Mice move fast. They multiply quick. Small issue? Grows quick in weeks. Watch for black droppings in cupboards or along walls, chew marks, grease smears near entry points. Might give off a smell. Scratching sounds? In walls or ceiling at night? That’s them.
We move fast. Snaps, stations, barriers. Mice gone. We give advice on food, hygiene, rubbish. Need a report for a landlord? We do that.
Squirrel Control
Grey squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) are becoming a recognised pest across towns and cities throughout the UK, including in places like Prestonpans. While their small size might mislead, their nesting habits in roof voids often results in disturbance, structural damage, and safety concerns.
Squirrels frequently gnaw on wood, piping, insulation, and wires, which can lead to leaks or fire hazards. In addition to their damaging behaviour, they are also loud nesters. We offer non-lethal squirrel control and removal in full alignment with UK wildlife legislation, followed by effective proofing to stop repeat access. Our team also manages all legal obligations, including any necessary permits or licences, and will outline the process to you.
Bird Control in Prestonpans
In towns and cities, pigeons and gulls go unnoticed. But when they build nests in structures, they bring more than just noise. Their droppings damage buildings, eating into brick and metal. Twigs and feathers clog drainage, sometimes setting the stage for fires. And with them come the unseen risks—organisms that pose a silent threat to public health.
At Pest Solutions, we are experts in bird control methods that are non-harmful, humane, and fully compliant with UK legislation.

Insect Control Prestonpans
Insects are a big problem in homes and businesses all over Prestonpans. Whether it’s nests in the roof, creepy crawlers in the bed, or pesky insects in food areas, infestations can spread quickly.
Dealing with insect pests is always a hassle—and it’s not just about the irritation. They can impact your wellbeing, cleanliness, and even regulations.

Buzzers, giant stingers, biters, cockroaches, pet pests, trail-makers, closet crawlers, kitchen pests, moisture lovers, stored product pests—you name it, we’ve handled it.
No two insects follow the same pattern. Some stay hidden, others spread fast. That’s why we start every job with a detailed site inspection. The best solutions are shaped by the evidence—we learn from the signs before taking the next step.
