Using rat poison for rodent prevention might seem like a quick solution, but it is neither practical nor reliable. As it moves up the food chain, poison can harm local wildlife, such as badgers, birds of prey, foxes, owls, and even household pets. As trusted experts in rodent control throughout Bristol, Bath, Trowbridge, Melksham, Chippenham, and the surrounding areas we cover, our residential and commercial pest control company adheres to the CRRU Code (Campaign for Responsible Rodenticide Use) to protect local wildlife.

True Proofing Expertise from a Far from Average Pest Control Company

We don’t just tackle the rodents you can see—we stop new ones from getting in. Unlike your average pest control company, we focus on long-term prevention, not just quick fixes by throwing poison down. Our expert team carries out a thorough investigation and survey of your property to identify entry points and weak spots, then offers a range of proofing solutions to keep your home rodent-free.

We offer solutions such as fitting rat gates aka one way valves in drains, installing air brick mesh covers, metal discs under tiles, installing metal plates, cementing rat holes, or even reinforcing weak spots where mice, rats or squirrels have broken in. If needed, we can arrange a CCTV drain survey to check for sewer defects that may be giving rats an easy route into your property. We don’t believe in just throwing down poison—we find the root cause and seal rodents out for good. If you’re tired of repeat infestations, get in touch with BEEKIND™ for a smarter, more effective approach to pest control.

Our Treatments

We prioritise efficiency and safety, treating your home or business with respect and ensuring that non-target species are unaffected. A thorough survey is essential to treat infestations effectively and prevent future entry. Our tamper-proof bait boxes, labelled with warnings, contain traps or minimal specialist poison if needed. The traps prevent rodents from dying under floorboards and causing unpleasant odours.

As rodent control and pest prevention specialists, we only treat severe infestations requiring more than two visits. We handle the problem as if it were our own, equipped with the skills, experience, and tools to act swiftly.

Please avoid using cheap, ineffective poisons purchased from hardware stores, as they may not work and could harm wildlife or pets.

The Norwegian Brown Rat

Rattus Norvegicus

The Norway Rat is native to northern China and Russia. Its adaptability and opportunism have helped it spread globally, including into UK homes. These hardy rats thrive in urban areas, quickly digging and finding shelter and food.

House & Field Mice

Mus Musculus & Apodemus Sylvaticus

Understanding the differences between house and field mice is crucial for effective rodent control. House mice are smaller with lighter fur and are commonly found in urban areas, where they seek shelter and food in human homes. In contrast, field mice prefer outdoor environments like fields and gardens but may enter buildings for food and warmth.

Our homes provide mice with safety, food, and ideal breeding conditions. For expert rodent prevention and proofing in Bristol, Bath, Trowbridge, Chippenham, Melksham, Trowbridge, and the surrounding areas, trust BEEKIND™.

Grey Squirrels

Sciurus Carolinensis

Grey squirrels in the garden are a pleasant sight, but once inside your home, they pose a challenging problem to eliminate. Issues typically arise in spring and autumn when squirrels are foraging. It may indicate a grey squirrel issue if you hear rustling or other noises from your attic or loft. Prompt action is crucial, as these rodents are highly destructive, and their nighttime activities can be distressing.

We specialise in humane grey squirrel removal and sealing entry points to prevent their return. Our thorough building assessments provide peace of mind, and our loft clearance services will remove any contamination, allowing you to utilise your loft space without further concerns. We sometimes utilise our drone to pinpoint the entry hole if it isn’t visible from the ground. This is quicker and safer than climbing ladders that may damage the building fabric. Our drone is a Mavic Mini 4 Pro with omnidirectional sensors built in. Which means it can’t crash into any person or building!

FAQs

Brown rats typically flee when threatened and are unlikely to attack unless cornered in large numbers. However, they can transmit diseases to humans through their urine. Common diseases include Hantavirus, Leptospirosis aka Weils disease, Listeria, Salmonella, and Toxoplasma gondii.

In the wild, most brown rats won’t survive beyond 12 months but can live as long as three years. During a year, a female can breed between five and seven times, with each litter producing up to 12 pups.

Many traps and poisons are available, but mass-produced options are often ineffective. Poisons can endanger pets and wildlife, and traps may fail. Our pest control company will survey your home or premises to understand the problem before using the most effective tools. Once rats are removed, sealing all potential entry points is crucial to prevent re-infestation. 

Anything! In addition to various grains, plant fibres, and seeds, field mice have also been known to feed on invertebrates, vertebrates, and carrion. 

Field mice are generally non-aggressive but can introduce diseases, fleas, and ticks into your home. Contact with contaminated mouse waste can lead to severe illnesses like Hantavirus. As the waste decomposes rapidly, it can become airborne and be inhaled, posing health risks.

A house mouse typically lives between six months and two years, though six months is more common. They reach reproductive maturity at about six weeks old, with pregnancy lasting 18 to 21 days and a litter of five to six pups. This rapid reproductive cycle allows mouse populations to grow swiftly, necessitating prompt action to address infestations.

Standard mouse traps can curb the populations, but to guarantee effective and long-lasting field and house mouse removal, contact our rodent prevention team at BEEKIND™ today. Due to the health risks involved with living close to a mouse infestation, it is recommended that you hire a pest control company to deal with the issue. 

Yes, in the UK, grey squirrels are classified as vermin. As non-native species, they have significantly contributed to the near-extinction of the native red squirrel. This classification prohibits trapping and releasing grey squirrels into the wild or keeping them in captivity. If you have an infestation, they must be humanely euthanised according to legal regulations.

Grey squirrels live approximately nine years and reach reproductive maturity at 10-12 months old. They have two breeding seasons yearly: the first is around March, and the second is mid-summer. Litter sizes are usually around three or four.

Grey squirrels carry diseases and may bite if threatened, making DIY removal risky. Removal can also be challenging due to legal restrictions on releasing them into the wild. Start by removing food sources, but please get in touch for a thorough roof inspection, squirrel removal, and guaranteed prevention.
