Common Pests in Brighton and Hove

Insects

Brighton and Hove’s unique coastal setting and vibrant tourism scene make it a hotspot for a variety of pests. Wasps are particularly troublesome during the late summer months, often building nests near open squares, the seafront, and around the city’s plentiful outdoor dining areas and pub gardens. Bed bugs are another concern, especially in hotels and guesthouses, where the high turnover of guests can lead to infestations.

Rodents

Rodents, including rats and mice, are common in older buildings and urban areas, especially those with easy access to food. Brighton and Hove’s mix of historic architecture and busy commercial areas (like the Lanes) provides ample opportunities for rodents to thrive. Ants are also a seasonal nuisance, particularly during the warmer spring months when food sources are abundant.

Common Pests in Brighton and Hove

Birds 

In addition to these pests, the city’s large seagull population poses a growing issue. Seagulls often scavenge around popular landmarks like the Pier, commercial hubs like Churchill Square and the Marina, and residential areas like Hove’s Poets’ Corner, creating a mess and sometimes even causing damage to property with their nesting habits. Their presence can also lead to noise pollution and potential health risks due to their droppings.

Our Expert Approach to Pest Management

We take a thorough, professional approach to pest management. The process begins with a comprehensive inspection of your property to assess the extent of the issue and identify the source of the problem. Based on this, we develop a customised pest management plan tailored to your specific needs.

Our solutions are focused on both immediate remediation and long-term prevention. We don’t just address the current infestation; we ensure that the conditions that allowed pests to thrive in the first place are dealt with, preventing future issues. This proactive approach ensures lasting protection for your home or business.

Following the initial treatment, we offer follow-up services to monitor the situation and make any necessary adjustments.

Effective Legionella Control in Brighton and Hove

In addition to expert pest management, we also offer comprehensive Legionella control services to protect your property from the risks of Legionella bacteria. Legionella can thrive in water systems, particularly in large buildings such as hotels, healthcare facilities, care homes, offices, and industrial sites, posing a serious health risk to occupants.

Brighton and Hove’s busy tourism sector, with its many hotels and guesthouses, makes it especially important for property owners to manage Legionella risks. It’s also vital for large sites and healthcare facilities such as the Royal Sussex County Hospital, where vulnerable patients could be exposed to infection otherwise. Additionally, older buildings or those with complex water systems are more prone to issues. 

Orkin UK provides professional Legionella risk assessments, water testing, and prevention strategies to ensure your property is compliant with health and safety regulations. Alongside maintaining regulations, you’ll also be safeguarding the health of staff, guests, and residents.
