What’s in your Stoke-on-Trent home?
Hard to spot, harder to remove without help. One of the most stubborn pests in UK homes.
One of the UK's most damaging pests. Quick to multiply, quicker to chew through cables.
A serious health risk and stubbornly hard to clear without proper treatment.
Often confused with rats. Daytime scratching in the loft is the giveaway.
Smaller than rats, just as quick. The signs are easy to miss until there are many of them.
A single nest can hold thousands. Removal is fast, DIY rarely is.
Slow-moving but expensive when ignored. A survey usually comes first.
The damage is in the wardrobe, not the air. A specialist clearance is usually needed.
Mess, noise, and damage. Proofing is the long-term answer.
Often arrive on pets and stay in carpets. Treatment is quick if done early.
Honeybees and bumblebees are protected — call a beekeeper, not a pest controller. Masonry and tree bees in walls or roofs may need professional advice but rarely destruction.
A sign of damp as much as a pest in their own right.
Across Stoke-on-Trent, bed bugs, rats, cockroaches account for the majority of bookings. Rats peak from October as outdoor food collapses; wasp nests are an early-summer rush; bedbugs and cockroaches are year-round in shared housing.

Why pest pressure varies here.
Stoke-on-Trent is a city in West Midlands, and pest pressure here is shaped by two things: building stock and street pattern. We see the most call-outs from ex-council maisonettes with communal bin stores and post-war semis with original sub-floor voids, with seasonal spikes traced to dense food-service streets and dense food-service streets. On top of that, the temperate midlands climate keeps activity steady year-round. Bed bugs, rats, cockroaches dominate the casework.
