Pest Control Edinburgh

About Pest Control in Edinburgh

Edinburgh is the capital city of Scotland and at almost 480,000 inhabitants has the seventh largest population in the UK. The size of the city coupled with its high population density and historic underground vaults areas make it a city prone to pest related issues.

Many of the modern day urban pests are common in Edinburgh such as Rats, Mice, Ants, Wasps, Cockroaches, Fleas, Bed Bugs, Pigeons and Gulls; which are often if not completely dependent on their close proximity to humans.

Referred to as commensal, which literally means to "share ones table" these pests including many Rodent, Insect and Bird species will live entirely from the foodstuffs we store or the waste we discard. Other pests such as Bed Bugs, Fleas and other Biting Insects require only the presence of a human or animal host, meaning that they are quite at home in our domestic environments.

The number of pest infestations we are encountering in Edinburgh is on the increase in most cases with significant rises noted in the Rodent population and exponential increases in the number of reports of Bed Bugs. This is in fact a common trend throughout the UK. Also Pigeon and Gull activity in the centre of the city is at an all time high.
