Autumn Insights

Get ready for Rats.

With cooler weather setting in, rodent activity rises sharply - our findings show a 30% increase in call-outs each autumn compared to summer. Rats and mice seek shelter in commercial buildings, targeting kitchens, storage areas, and hard-to-reach structural spaces. Early signs like droppings, gnaw marks, or scratching noises shouldn’t be ignored.

Stay one step ahead - schedule your autumn pest control assessment today.

Save Time & Money With Rodent Control This Autumn

Without rodent control, you risk the loss of products due to contamination, bad reviews, and potential closure.

Industry Impact

Warehousing & Rodents

Warehouses and food storage facilities face heightened rodent pressure during autumn. As outdoor conditions cool, rats and mice seek shelter and reliable food sources - making stockrooms, packaging areas, and loading bays prime targets. Rodents can contaminate goods, damage packaging, and compromise hygiene standards, leading to costly losses and regulatory risks.

We offer targeted pest control solutions to help protect your operations from rodent-related disruption and safeguard your supply chain.

Healthcare & Insects

In cooler months, healthcare facilities face increased activity from overwintering and moisture-seeking insects. Cluster flies, silverfish, and cockroaches are common culprits - drawn to warm interiors, damp areas, and undisturbed spaces. These pests pose serious hygiene risks, especially in patient rooms, storage areas, and clinical zones where sanitation is critical.

We deliver insect control strategies designed for healthcare settings - minimising risk while meeting strict regulatory standards.

Hotels & Rodents


Autumn brings cooler weather - and with it, a rise in rodent activity. Rats and mice seek shelter in warm buildings, making hotels and guest accommodation prime targets. They can enter through the smallest gaps and quickly contaminate food areas, storage spaces, and even guest rooms. Even well-maintained properties are at risk. Regular inspections, staff awareness, and professional prevention are key to protecting your guests and your reputation this season.

We offer solutions designed to protect staff and visitors, and uphold the reputation and integrity of your establishment.

How You Can Prepare For Nesting Birds

Now is the ideal time to bird-proof your premises before nesting season begins. Pigeons, Gulls, and Starlings are already on the lookout for safe nesting spots. Once they settle, removal becomes difficult - and in many cases, restricted by law.

A bit of prep now saves a lot of trouble later — and if you’re not sure where to start, we’re always here to help.

Inspect Thoroughly

By identifying any vulnerabilities in your building, you can stop a potential ingress point developing into a problem
