Rodent Proofing Richmond upon Thames

Rodent Proofing in Richmond upon Thames

In the borough's older townhouses, that often means gaps where pipework passes through cellar walls and worn airbricks.

In the larger detached houses further out, gaps around garages, outbuildings and utility pipework are common entry points that proofing can close off.

Riverside gardens near Twickenham and Barnes

The large gardens backing onto the Thames around Twickenham and Barnes give rats plenty of cover to move along unseen, following old boundary walls and hedgerows between properties. Compost heaps and bird feeders in gardens like these are a common draw, with a gap under a shed or garden wall the usual way indoors.

Outbuildings and garages near Kew and Ham

The substantial detached houses around Kew and Ham often have a garage, garden office or outbuilding attached or close to the main structure, and a gap around a service pipe or a garage door left slightly open gives mice an easy, sheltered way to reach the house without crossing open ground.

What Rodent Proofing Covers

When to Book It
