RODENT CONTROL
Have you noticed rodent droppings in your house or heard scratching in the roof or walls?What can start as just a small problem, with just one or two mice or rats, can quickly escalate – as rodents breed fast. Not only are they pests that damage wiring and eat through pipes, they carry a range of diseases that can be harmful to people.
We take a thorough approach to dealing with rodents, focusing on how they are gaining access to properties rather than simply putting out bait or traps.
Our preferred method of dealing with rodents is to eliminate entry points around the exterior of houses using our pest control expertise and knowledge of cladding systems. This helps us investigate entry points and carry out repairs to eliminate the issue permanently, instead of continually baiting because rodents keep using access points into your home. We specialise in new builds, but are also happy to assess older houses when needed. Talk to us about your personal situation and we'll come up with the right method for you.

Home Invasion!
We could hear rats in the ceiling space and then some light fittings stopped working, due to them chewing through cables. I called Zeropests and Mike came promptly to set up bait stations. He also checked to see where the rats were getting in and rodent proofed it to stop their access. Eugene★★★★★
Found Them!
We had used Mike previously to spider proof our new home and then started to hear scratching in the walls/ceilings. I didn’t think there would be any access points for rodents, as the house was only a year old – but sure enough, Mike found them and fixed them up. Problem solved. David and Helen★★★★★
Plagued with mice
I can’t recommend Zero Pest highly enough. Every autumn since moving into our new home we have been plagued with mice in our roof space. We had a trapping and poisoning regime but to no avail. With a new architectural home, we were at our wits end. We called Zero Pests who had sprayed our house for flies pre-summer. Mike has a building background, and it was reassuring when he said he knew how to resolve the problem and knew exactly what to do about it. Mike and Amanda are a hard-working professional team who are great communicators. They are committed to working out innovative solutions. We are so grateful to them that despite living in the country we have had no mice in the ceiling since their visit. Claire★★★★★
Problem Solved
We discovered we had a mouse issue, and I contacted multiple pest controllers to seek a quote and solution. Mike from Zeropests responded within hours and was onsite the next day to assess the situation and came up with a plan to stop them getting in and to remove the existing mice. All other suppliers simply wanted to set bait and didn't need to complete a site inspection. Mike has 20 years’ experience as a builder and knew instantly what the problem was. A few days later the permanent fix was completed in a fastidious manner and traditional traps set above our ceiling that caught the offenders within a day. Problem solved, and at a very reasonable cost. I strongly suggest that anyone who finds they have a mouse issue in a modern build to contact Mike at Zeropests. He is the only one who is interested and able to identify the root cause issue to enable a complete fix. Otherwise, you'll be setting traps forever. Stu from Rolleston★★★★★
Nothing was an issue!
I was an idiot and let noises in my roof get way too loud before contacting Mike. I searched the internet and was impressed with all of the reviews I found on their website and made contact. Everything was true. He was around asap and actually had to come back several times due to the family I had let form in the roof, but nothing was an issue. The pricing and advice was incredibly fair and he even fixed potential holes in my foundations and I haven’t had a problem since. 100% recommend. Matt★★★★★
No Unwanted Visitors Since
After discovering our lovely new home was slowly being eaten from the inside by mice I jumped straight onto Google. I was initially drawn to Zero Pests as they were the first one to open in the morning and I wanted this issue resolved fast! As soon as I mentioned we were a new build Mike was confident he knew where they would be getting in via the cladding cavity. He dropped by on the same day to inspect our place and confirmed his initial thoughts. Mike then secured the perimeter of our house exterior and we have had no scratching or unwanted visitors since. For a job done once and done right, call Mike! Carolyn - Marshland
