On-Site Inspections & Proofing

Pest Control & Proofing Work Gallery Across Blackburn & Lancashire

Getting rid of pests properly means finding out how they got inside in the first place. Below are real photographs taken by our technicians on domestic and commercial jobs within 20 miles of our Ramsgreave baseโ€”from stainless steel rat valves in clay inspection chambers and galvanised mesh along open eaves to loft wasp nest removals and downpipe baffles.

Roofline & Eaves Proofing

Rats and grey squirrels climb rough stonework and plastic downpipes to push under roof tiles. We fit external cone baffles, balloon guards, and heavy-gauge galvanised weld mesh screwed securely into timber soffits and fascias.

Drain Chambers & Rat Gates

Older properties in Blackburn and Accrington often have displaced clay pipe joints or uncapped branches below ground. Working alongside Drain Medics, we inspect manholes and fit heavy-duty stainless steel non-return rat flaps.

Loft Nests & Decontamination

From active paper wasp nests tucked inside eaves cupboards and garden furniture to contaminated floorboards requiring biocide washdowns, we treat the infestation safely and leave your home clean.
