Pest Control Tudeley

Pest Control in Tudeley

Tudeley is a small village between Tonbridge and Paddock Wood in Kent, best known for the church of All Saints which contains stained glass windows by Marc Chagall. The village sits in the low-lying land between the greensand hills and the Medway valley, with hop gardens, orchards and arable fields stretching around it. The flat, damp ground and the proximity to several streams and drainage channels create ideal conditions for rats. They follow the watercourses through the farmland and turn up at properties along the lanes, attracted by the food sources that come with rural life. Our rat control service covers Tudeley and responds quickly because we understand how rats use the low-lying landscape here.

The older houses and oast houses in Tudeley have the charm of traditional Kent construction but also the vulnerabilities. Gaps in the brickwork, around the round oast kilns and where buildings have been converted and extended all give mice routes inside. The hop-drying oasts were built to allow air flow, not to keep rodents out, so converted oast houses can be particularly tricky. We provide mouse control that works with the character of these buildings while still sealing the gaps that matter.

Wasps are a summer regular across Tudeley, nesting in the roof voids, outbuildings and garden sheds. The older buildings with their open eaves and traditional construction offer plenty of sheltered spots. The orchards around the village attract wasps with their fallen fruit from August onwards and a nest near an outdoor seating area can make the garden unpleasant to use. We handle wasp removal throughout the season. The damp valley ground also suits fleas and homes with pets that spend time outdoors can see flea numbers build up indoors during the warmer months.
