Common Pest Problems in High Cross

What we are actually called out to in and around High Cross, and when.

Rats around gardens and drainage

Older drain runs, compost heaps and decking in High Cross give rats shelter and a food source. Burrows near boundary fences are usually the first sign — see rat control.

Mice entering properties in colder months

From October onwards mice move indoors through airbricks, cable entries and loft eaves. Droppings behind kitchen units are the classic report — see mouse control.

Wasps nesting in lofts and soffits

Peak call-outs across High Cross run July to September, usually soffits, loft insulation and garden sheds — see wasp control.

Bed bug infestations following travel

Most High Cross bed bug cases trace back to travel, second-hand furniture or a shared building. Heat treatment clears every life stage in one visit — see bed bug treatment.

Fleas associated with pets and wildlife

Cat and hedgehog fleas survive in carpets long after the animal has gone, which is why empty High Crossproperties still bite — see flea control.

Ant activity during warmer weather

Garden ants forage indoors from late spring, typically along kitchen skirting and patio joints — see ant control.

Bird proofing requirements

Pigeon and gull fouling on High Cross rooflines, solar panels and signage is a health and access issue — netting and spiking are handled under bird control.

Seasonal trends around High Cross

Cluster flies in autumn lofts, squirrels in roof voids over winter, and stored-product insects in pantries year round — activity we track locally through our pest activity map.
