Ants, rats and mice can start with small signs

A problem at home or work does not always look obvious at first. It might be ants returning to the same kitchen route, scratching noises at night or signs of rats or mice around cupboards, sheds or roof spaces. We work as a mobile pest controller in Totnes for one-off treatment visits that start with a careful look at the affected property. That lets us judge whether the issue is being driven by a nearby nest, small entry gaps or a hidden rodent route. Once we understand the setting, we can recommend treatment that suits the property and the pest activity involved.

Give us the clues before we attend

Before we attend in Totnes, it helps if you can describe insect trails, droppings, noises or damage you have noticed, along with any limits on access to lofts, kitchens, sheds or affected rooms. These details help us plan the visit properly and avoid wasting time on the day. After inspecting the property, we explain the likely cause and the most sensible next step for treatment or prevention. We can also help with other indoor pest problems, including carpet moths, where activity is affecting carpets, rugs or other natural-fibre materials.

Frequently asked questions

What signs could indicate rats or mice in a property?

Droppings, scratching noises, gnawing, damaged food packaging and activity around sheds or outbuildings can all indicate rats or mice. Tell us where you have noticed the signs so we can plan the inspection around the affected areas.

Can ant trails point to a nest outside the building?

Yes. Ants may be travelling in from paving, garden edges or gaps around the structure even if you only keep seeing them indoors. That is why we look at outside routes as well as the room where the problem is most obvious.

Do mouse signs in a shed matter if the house seems clear?

Yes. Sheds, garages and outbuildings can be part of the same wider issue, especially if mice have access to stored items or a route toward the main building. We inspect the whole setting before recommending the next step.
