Why Choose Us?
Why Proactive Pest Proofing is Essential for Your Property
Many people call us when they've already got a rat in the kitchen or a mouse in the loft. While we're experts at removing these pests, the best approach is always prevention. Pest proofing is about sealing off potential entry points and removing attractants, making it extremely difficult for pests to gain access in the first place. This proactive service protects your property from costly damage, safeguards your family's or customers' health, and ensures you maintain a hygienic environment. It’s an efficient investment that helps you avoid future pest problems, saving you time, money, and stress down the line.

01822 668338Common Entry Points We Seal to Keep Pests Out
Pests are incredibly resourceful, often finding their way into your home or business through surprisingly small openings. We regularly find them using:
- Gaps and Cracks: Even a tiny crack in the foundation or a small gap around a utility pipe can be an open invitation for mice and insects.
- Roof and Attic Spaces: Damaged fascias, soffits, or loose roof tiles provide perfect access for squirrels, rats, and birds.
- Vents and Drains: Unprotected air bricks, faulty drain covers, or old drainage systems are common entry points for rodents. Our specialist Rodent Control for Drains qualification means we understand how rats exploit these routes.
- Doors and Windows: Gaps under doors or around window frames, especially in older properties, offer easy access.
We use a range of materials, from specialist sealants and mesh to durable brushes and grates, to close off these vulnerabilities and provide a robust barrier.

01822 668338Targeted Proofing Against Common Pests in Devon
Our pest proofing services are effective against a wide range of common pests that cause issues across Torquay and wider Devon:
- Rodents (Rats & Mice): These persistent pests can squeeze through incredibly small gaps. Our proofing methods, combined with our CRRU subscriber status, ensure we responsibly block their access without relying solely on rodenticides.
- Birds (Pigeons & Gulls): Birds often nest in roof spaces and under solar panels, causing noise and significant mess. We provide effective solutions like bird netting and anti-roosting spikes, always compliant with the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981.
- Insects (Ants, Cockroaches, etc.): Many crawling insects enter properties through tiny cracks and gaps. Sealing these entry points is a crucial part of long-term insect control.
We provide comprehensive solutions whether you’re a homeowner or a business owner.
