Read moreBird Control in Reading
Pigeons, gulls, crows and other nuisance birds moved on and kept off your roof, ledges and building — the service our name is built on.
Bird control is the service Pestpro Bird Solutions was built around, and it covers everything from a single problem ledge to a full commercial proofing contract. We start with a proper site survey rather than guessing at a fix from a photo, then choose from netting, spiking, electric and gel deterrents, the Flock Off system, or Agrilaser autonomic laser units depending on the building, the bird and what is actually workable. For persistent gull and pigeon problems we also use falconry — trained hawks and falcons flown to move birds on without harming them.
What's included
- Free, no-obligation site survey
- Netting, spiking and Flock Off deterrent systems
- Agrilaser autonomic laser deterrents
- Falconry-based deterrents using trained birds of prey
Pigeon & Gull Proofing in Reading
Netting, spiking and proofing for roofs, ledges and solar panels, plus guano cleaning where birds have already taken hold.
Once gulls or pigeons have settled on a building, the fouling underneath becomes a hygiene problem in its own right — guano is corrosive, a slip hazard and a genuine health risk. We proof the site properly first (netting, spiking, wire systems or solar panel guards, chosen to suit the building rather than a one-size-fits-all kit) and clean up what has already built up before we leave.
What's included
- Roof, ledge and gutter proofing
- Solar panel bird-proofing
- Guano cleaning and site sanitisation
- Egg and nest removal under licence where required
Wasp Nest Removal in Reading
Wasp nests treated quickly and safely in gardens, lofts, sheds and commercial premises across Reading.
A wasp nest rarely gets smaller on its own, and disturbing one yourself is how most people end up stung. We treat nests in roof spaces, sheds, garages, air bricks and gardens across Reading and the surrounding villages, usually in a single visit. We have also worked with community buildings on tracking down nests that are not immediately obvious — see our note from the Gill Nethercott Centre below.
What's included
- Same visit treatment wherever possible
- Safe removal from lofts, sheds and eaves
- Treatment for both domestic gardens and commercial sites
- Advice on stopping nests coming back
Rat & Mouse Control in Reading
Rodent problems identified, treated and proofed against, in homes, gardens and commercial units.
Seeing one rat or mouse almost always means there are more you have not seen yet. We inspect the property to work out how they are getting in and what is drawing them in, not just where to drop bait, then put together a treatment plan and proofing advice so the problem does not simply come back in a few months. Fixed-price quotes are given after that inspection.
What's included
- Inspection to find entry points, not just symptoms
- Safe baiting and trapping programmes
- Proofing advice to stop rodents getting back in
- Domestic and commercial properties covered
Bed Bug Heat Treatment in Reading
Whole-room heat treatment that kills bed bugs and their eggs in a single visit — no chemical residue left behind.
Bed bugs are notoriously hard to shift with sprays alone, because eggs tucked into seams and skirting survive most chemical treatments. Heat treatment raises the whole room to a temperature bed bugs and their eggs cannot survive, in a single visit, with nothing left behind for you to ventilate or wipe down afterwards.
What's included
- Kills bed bugs and eggs in one treatment
- No chemical residue in the room afterwards
- Suitable for homes, HMOs and hotel rooms
- Clothing and fabric treatment available
Cockroach Heat Treatment in Reading
Heat-based cockroach treatment for homes, restaurants and commercial kitchens — effective without heavy chemical use.
Cockroaches are resilient and breed fast, which is why a single spray treatment often only knocks a population back rather than clearing it. Heat treatment gets into the cracks, voids and equipment gaps cockroaches hide in without soaking a kitchen or food preparation area in chemicals — particularly useful for restaurants and commercial premises that need to keep operating.
What's included
- Heat treatment reduces reliance on chemical spraying
- Suitable for occupied kitchens and food premises
- Treats the areas cockroaches actually hide in
- Follow-up inspection available
General Insect Control in Reading
Ants, clothes moths and other household and commercial insect problems, treated with the right method for the pest.
Not every insect problem needs the same approach. Ants get treated at the nest rather than just along the trail you can see, and clothes moths — which do their damage as larvae, not adults — are dealt with using heat treatment on infested clothing and fabric rather than blanket spraying a wardrobe.
What's included
- Ant nests and trails treated at the source
- Clothing and fabric heat treatment for moths
- General insect infestations in homes and businesses
- Advice on preventing re-infestation
Wildlife Management & Ecological Surveys in Reading
Non-invasive ecological surveys and wildlife management for building, development and land-management projects.
Some jobs are about managing wildlife responsibly rather than removing a pest. We carry out ecological surveys and nesting bird management for building and development sites, using site-trained staff and GPS data capture, so landowners, developers and managing agents can move projects forward without falling foul of wildlife protection law.
What's included
- Non-invasive ecology surveys
- Nesting bird management for development sites
- Wildlife management consultation
- Reports suitable for planning and compliance use
Commercial Pest Control in Reading
Contracted pest control for offices, warehouses, food premises and landfill and waste sites, with emergency call-out cover.
Commercial sites need pest control that keeps a paper trail, not just a quick spray. We run scheduled contracts for offices, warehouses, food premises, agricultural sites and waste and landfill locations, with emergency response when something cannot wait for the next scheduled visit, and documentation you can show an EHO or auditor.
What's included
- Scheduled contract visits for ongoing prevention
- Emergency call-out response
- Documentation suitable for EHO and audit purposes
- Sites across Reading, Berkshire and further afield
