Rats

Rats are notorious for causing significant damage to properties through gnawing on structural elements and wiring, which can lead to costly repairs and even fire hazards. Health-wise, they are carriers of various diseases such as Salmonella and Hantavirus, posing serious risks to humans. Rats can also contaminate food supplies and compromise the cleanliness of living and working environments.
Orkin UK tackles rat infestations with a comprehensive approach that includes a thorough inspection to identify entry points and nesting sites. We use a combination of baiting and trapping methods, alongside structural modifications, to eliminate current populations and prevent future infestations. Our strategies are tailored to your location, building layout, and industry, ensuring effective and long-lasting rodent control.
Mice

Mice can invade homes and businesses, creating nests and reproducing rapidly. They contaminate food and surfaces with their droppings, which can spread diseases like Leptospirosis and cause allergic reactions in humans. Mice are also known for their destructive chewing habits, damaging furniture, insulation, and wiring within properties.
Orkin UK’s mouse control services include identifying and sealing entry points to prevent access. We employ advanced trapping techniques and strategic bait placements to effectively control mouse populations. Ongoing monitoring and maintenance are part of our service to ensure that your property remains mouse-free over the long term.
Squirrels

Squirrels, while less commonly regarded as pests compared to rats and mice, can still cause considerable damage if they gain access to indoor spaces. They tend to chew on woodwork, insulation, and electrical wiring, potentially causing electrical fires. They can also be a source of noise, particularly in attics and lofts where they can build their nests.
Orkin UK manages squirrel infestations by first conducting a detailed assessment of the infestation and potential entry points. We then implement humane trapping techniques to capture and relocate the squirrels. Preventative measures, including securing entry points and offering advice on deterrents, are crucial parts of our strategy to ensure squirrels do not return to your property.
Effective Rodent Control for Commercial Environments
Orkin UK provides robust rodent control solutions tailored specifically for commercial settings. Whether you manage an office building, a restaurant, or an industrial site, our services ensure that your operations remain free from the disruptions caused by rodents. We conduct comprehensive site assessments to identify potential infestation hotspots, followed by strategic baiting, trapping, and preventive measures. Our ongoing maintenance plans keep your premises safe and compliant with health regulations, protecting both your property and your reputation.
Reliable Rodent Control for Residential Properties
Home is where you should feel safest, but a rodent infestation can compromise that safety, posing health risks and causing structural damage. Orkin UK offers specialised residential rodent control services that effectively target and eliminate rodents while preventing future invasions. Our experienced technicians conduct detailed assessments, utilise safe and efficient treatments, and provide preventative advice to keep your home rodent-free.
Certified Excellence in Rodent Control
Orkin UK is fully certified to provide expert rodent control services throughout the UK. We adhere strictly to industry standards and regulatory requirements, ensuring our services are both effective and compliant. Our team is rigorously trained and certified under the Campaign for Responsible Rodenticide Use (CRRU) to ensure the use of rodenticides is safe, responsible, and only when necessary.
Our Step-By-Step Rodent Control Process
- Initial Inspection: Our trained technicians conduct a detailed inspection of your property to identify potential entry points and infestation hotspots. This involves assessing internal and external areas, including less visible spaces where rodents might hide.
- Customised Treatment Plan: Based on the inspection findings, we develop a tailored treatment plan that combines mechanical traps, baits, and non-toxic monitoring blocks. Our approach depends on the severity and nature of the infestation, ensuring effective management with minimal environmental impact.
- Implementation of Control Measures: We strategically place tamper-proof bait stations and traps around the property to capture or eliminate rodents. Special attention is given to burrows and potential entry points, using safe and controlled methods to apply bait within regulatory guidelines.
- Proofing and Prevention: To prevent future infestations, our technicians implement proofing measures, such as sealing entry points and advising on best practices for waste management and food storage, which reduce the chances of rodent attraction.
- Ongoing Monitoring and Maintenance: Orkin UK provides continuous monitoring through routine inspections and maintenance visits to ensure that the property remains rodent-free. This ongoing service is especially crucial during pest control contracts where regular checks help to quickly identify and address any new activity.
- Documentation and Compliance: Throughout the process, all actions taken are documented thoroughly, ensuring compliance with health regulations and the Campaign for Responsible Rodenticide Use (CRRU) standards. This documentation supports our ongoing pest management strategies and regulatory compliance.
Enhanced Health Protection
Our comprehensive methods efficiently manage rodent populations, significantly reducing the risk of disease transmission. Rodents are carriers of various pathogens that can lead to serious health issues like Hantavirus, Leptospirosis, and Salmonella, which can easily spread to humans through direct contact or contamination of food surfaces. Our targeted treatments ensure safer living and working environments, maintaining high standards of hygiene and health safety.
Prevent Property Damage
Rodents are notorious for their destructive nature, particularly their tendency to chew through electrical wires, insulation, and structural components of buildings. This behaviour not only leads to significant damage but also increases the risk of electrical fires and structural weaknesses. Orkin UK employs strategic measures to address these issues effectively, reducing the likelihood of costly repairs and extending the longevity of your property.
Assured Compliance with Regulations
For commercial entities, adhering to health and safety regulations is not just a standard but a necessity. Orkin UK’s rodent control services help ensure that your business operations are fully compliant with the latest health and safety standards. This is crucial for avoiding potential legal and financial repercussions that can arise from non-compliance due to pest infestations. Our services also include thorough documentation and support for regulatory compliance, protecting your business reputation and operations.
Long-Term Rodent Control
Orkin UK is dedicated to providing more than just immediate pest elimination; we focus on delivering long-term solutions to rodent problems. Our ongoing maintenance plans and proactive preventive measures are designed to keep your premises rodent-free long-term. These strategies include regular inspections, the installation of barriers to entry, and the implementation of environmental modifications to deter rodent activity.
