Just over the county border in Herefordshire, Ross-on-Wye is a historic market town perched above a bend in the River Wye, with period buildings, busy shops, holiday lets and farmland all around. We provide professional pest control for homes, visitor accommodation and businesses across Ross and the surrounding villages.
The River Wye and its meadows support healthy rat populations, and when water levels rise, rats are pushed out of their burrows towards gardens, outbuildings and homes. The historic town centre has centuries-old buildings, cellars and shared roof spaces where mice can travel between properties. Pubs, cafés, restaurants and takeaways create food waste that attracts rodents and gulls. As a popular base for exploring the Wye Valley, Ross has plenty of holiday cottages, B&Bs and guest houses, where a steady flow of visitors and luggage can bring in bed bugs. Orchards and farmland around the town add mice, rats, wasps and moles.
A riverside setting, historic buildings and a busy visitor economy bring rats, mice and bed bugs into homes, holiday lets and town-centre businesses.
We treat the problem, find the source, and proof homes and businesses with methods that suit older buildings, working around bookings and opening hours.
Spring brings ants and new molehills, and summer is the busiest time for wasps in pub gardens and orchards. Rats are pushed towards homes after heavy rain and flooding, while mice move indoors from the fields after harvest. Bed bugs can appear at any time of year, often after the busy summer holiday season.
