Pest Control in Newcastle

Newcastle upon Tyne is the great city of the North East, a place of bridges, culture, football and fierce local pride. The city stretches from the Tyne quayside, with its famous bridges and regenerated waterfront, up through the steep streets of the city centre and out into a wide ring of suburbs, villages and housing estates. The architecture tells the story of the city's growth: medieval remains around the castle keep, the graceful sweep of Grey Street and Grainger Town with their Georgian and Victorian facades, Edwardian terraces in Heaton and Jesmond, inter-war housing in Fenham and Benwell and post-war estates from Walker to Kenton. Each era brought its own building methods and each presents different pest challenges. The Victorian terraces of Heaton, Byker and Arthur's Hill, with their shared walls, connected loft spaces and aging drainage systems, are where rat problems are most concentrated. Brown rats move through the sewer network beneath these streets, entering properties through cracked pipes and damaged manholes. Our rat control in Newcastle is one of our largest operations in the North East, with the expertise needed to tackle drainage-related rodent problems across the city.

The River Tyne and the Ouseburn, Jesmond Dene and the burns that run through the city's parks and green spaces all provide natural corridors for wildlife to move between the countryside and the urban centre. Rats and mice travel along these watercourses and properties close to the Ouseburn Valley, the Town Moor and the green spaces of Jesmond Dene are often the first to notice rodent activity. The student areas around Jesmond and Sandyford see high turnover of residents each year and the bins and food waste associated with shared houses attract rats and mice in large numbers. Our mouse control in Newcastle covers the city from the quayside to Gosforth and from Elswick to Walkergate.

Bed bugs are a growing concern across Newcastle, found in student accommodation, hotels, hostels and multi-occupancy properties throughout the city centre and inner suburbs. Pigeons roost on the commercial buildings of Grainger Town and the city centre, creating mess and health risks with accumulated droppings. Wasps build nests across every part of the city during summer, from the roof spaces of terraced houses to the loft conversions of suburban semis. Our team provides bed bug treatment, pigeon control and wasp removal across Newcastle with the capacity and response times that a city of this size demands.
