Rodent Control Aberdeen – Rat, Mouse & Squirrel Infestations

The most common and distressing reason people require pest control services throughout Aberdeen and the surrounding area, is due to rodent activity in their home or business.

Rodent infestations carry many health risks, contaminating food, spreading all sorts of diseases through droppings and skin contact, as well as causing a huge fire risk, and damaging property.

Rodents such as grey squirrels, rats, and house mice, all have a tendency to chew through electrical wires and this behaviour is estimated to account for around 7% of house fires in the UK every year.

The rodent species our pest control specialists tackle most frequently are:

Brown Rats (Rattus Norvegicus)

The brown rat (Rattus norvegicus), commonly referred to as the Norway rat, is the most widespread rat species in the UK, including Aberdeen and the wider Aberdeenshire area.

These rodents can grow up to 250mm in body length, with a light brown to greyish coat, large feet, and a long, scaly tail that is often equal to or longer than their body. Despite common misconceptions, their tails are completely harmless.

Aberdeen’s mix of urban, coastal, and rural environments makes it a prime habitat for brown rats, particularly in areas near Aberdeen Harbour, the River Dee.

They are also commonly found in parks and green spaces such as Duthie Park, Hazlehead Park, and Seaton Park, where food litter and water sources attract them.

Given their rapid breeding cycle and potential to spread diseases such as leptospirosis (Weil’s disease) and salmonella, professional pest control intervention is essential for effective and long-term management.

Black Rats (Rattus Rattus)

Black rats (Rattus rattus), also known as ship rats or roof rats, are far less frequently spotted in Aberdeen than their brown rat counterparts. However, they can still pose a significant pest risk, particularly in coastal and industrial areas.

Due to their historical association with shipping, black rats are most often found near Aberdeen Harbour, Torry Marine Base, and commercial ports along the North Sea, where they arrive via cargo shipments, imported goods, and maritime trade.

Unlike brown rats, black rats are excellent climbers, often nesting in roof spaces, warehouses, and upper floors of buildings rather than burrowing underground. This agility makes them particularly problematic for businesses handling food storage, including granaries, fish processing plants, and wholesale food distribution centres.

They are highly adaptable and can squeeze through gaps as small as 15mm, making older structures in Aberdeen’s industrial estates especially vulnerable.

Like brown rats, black rats can be vectors for disease. Making rat removal important for health and safety in domestic and commercial properties.

House Mice (Mus musculus)

House mice (Mus musculus) are significantly smaller than both black and brown rats, measuring around 80mm in body length, but their size does not make them any less of a problem.

These rodents are among the most common indoor pests in Aberdeen, thriving in residential properties, restaurants, supermarkets, and warehouses.

Despite their small stature, house mice carry just as many dangerous pathogens as their larger rodent cousins, including salmonella, hantavirus, and leptospirosis, making them a major health concern in homes and businesses alike. Our mouse control solutions will help pest proof and eradicate the problem from your domestic or commercial property.

Squirrels

They may look cuter than other rodents jumping around trees in your local park with their fluffy tails, but grey squirrels can cause a huge amount of damage when they invade domestic lofts and wall cavities. They have two long front teeth and aren’t afraid to use them, making a lot of noise gnawing on whatever they come across, negatively impacting your quality of life, and causing extensive property damage.

To ensure you solve your rodent problems with the most effective pest treatment contact Clark Pest Control today. 

We will use a proven combination of rodenticides, traps, and rodent proofing measures to get rid of any rodent population in your property and ensure these pests never return. We solve all local pest and commercial pest issues in Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire, and the wider region.

Bird Control Aberdeen

At Clark Pest Control, our fully qualified pest control technicians are specialists at delivering bird proofing solutions to anyone from major companies with large warehouses to domestic customers who want to protect plants in the garden from pest bird attacks.

We have a huge range of different pest and bird control methods at our disposal from netting and spikes to decoy predators and even falconry with a specialist bird control team who have been implementing solutions to all forms of bird problems throughout Aberdeen and across the North East of Scotland for many years.

Why is bird control needed?

If you live in or around Aberdeen, you will undoubtedly have noticed the rise in gull and pigeon activity over the past few years, especially in the city centre, and professional bird control is often the only way to keep these pests at bay. Our pest controllers deliver bespoke solutions to bird related problems, helping you keep your property pest free all year round.

Pest birds often roost on domestic roofs, windowsills, ledges, and in the rafters or commercial buildings in Aberdeen.

Bird proofing and preventative measures are important for several reasons.

Firstly, birds such as gulls and pigeons carry a number of dangerous diseases including Salmonella and Histoplasmosis which can be transferred to humans through their droppings.

Large populations of pest birds near humans means a larger build up of bird faeces and the risk of people becoming ill through accidental consumption is higher.

Excess bird droppings do not only spread disease but also cause surfaces to become slimy, raising the risk of a slipping and can even cause damage to property over time. Bird mess is extremely toxic and if large quantities sit on metal or stone surfaces for a long period it can cause erosion as well as ruining the aesthetic of the property.

Birds such as seagulls also have loud squawking calls which can be distracting when trying to get to sleep or when working from home, so a pest bird infestation has been found to negatively impact the quality of life of many of our clients.

Aberdeen Pest Bird Species

There are a number of birds in the Aberdeen region that are classed as pest species.

The most common bird species that Clark Pest Control tackle on a daily basis are:

• Feral Pigeons (Columba livia)
• Gulls (Laridae)
• Starlings (Sturnus vulgaris)

Aberdeen Pest Bird Solutions

We have a range of bird control solutions at our fingertips. These include:

Bird Spikes

Spike strips are highly flexible and can be attached to almost any surface using a range of fixings including clips, glue, and nails. They can be applied to almost any potential roosting location from windowsills to signs.

Bird Netting

Properly installed, this is the only guaranteed way to prevent pest birds reaching your property. Clark Pest Control uses smart netting which excludes harmful UV light whilst appearing as unobtrusive as possible.

Deterrents

There are several bird deterrents you can use to scare off pest birds including decoy predators such as fake owls and hawk kites, and water activated sprinklers

Extermination

If a pest bird infestation cannot be removed without harming the birds, then we have expert marksmen who can carry out humane shooting and lethal trapping to remove pest birds.

Clark Pest control offers a number of pest bird solutions to our clients across the UK, and our technicians in our local Aberdeen office are expertly trained in implementing them.

Insect Pest Control Aberdeen

The thought of an insect infestation may not strike fear into your heart the same way as the idea of a mouse or rat presence would, but they can be just as harmful and often much more difficult to get rid of.
