Pest Control Stevenage & Hertfordshire
Professional Pest Control Services
Nex Pest Control provides a wide range of pest control services for residential and commercial customers throughout Stevenage and Hertfordshire. Our treatments are designed to deal with common pest problems quickly and effectively while also identifying the underlying causes of infestations.
Rodent infestations involving rats and mice are one of the most common issues experienced by property owners. These pests can enter buildings through very small gaps and quickly establish nests in lofts, wall cavities and under floors. Once inside, they can cause significant damage by gnawing wiring, insulation and pipework while contaminating food preparation areas.
Insect infestations are another common problem. Wasps often build nests in lofts, wall cavities and gardens during the summer months, while cockroaches and ants can establish themselves inside kitchens and food storage areas. Bed bugs are also increasingly common and can spread quickly through bedrooms and soft furnishings if left untreated.
Our pest control services also include specialist bird control solutions. Pigeons and other pest birds frequently nest on roofs, balconies and under solar panels, where they can create noise, mess and structural damage.
Nex Pest Control provides professional treatments and proofing solutions for a wide range of pests including rats, mice, wasps, cockroaches, bed bugs, cluster flies, ants, squirrels and pest birds.

Common Signs of a Pest Infestation
Many pest infestations develop gradually and may go unnoticed at first. However, there are several warning signs that may indicate pest activity within a property.
Scratching or movement noises inside loft spaces, walls or floors may suggest rodent activity. Droppings found in cupboards, kitchens or storage areas are another common indicator that rats or mice may be present.
Chewed food packaging, damaged insulation or gnaw marks around pipes and cables can also indicate a rodent infestation. Insect activity such as wasps entering roof spaces or seeing cockroaches or ants indoors may indicate a developing infestation.
In properties with solar panels or roof ledges, large amounts of bird droppings or nesting materials may suggest pigeons are nesting nearby.
If any of these signs are present, professional pest control treatment should be arranged to prevent the problem from becoming more severe.
Rats
You will usually encounter rat pest problems during certain times of the year, as the weather can affect their numbers and homes.
Usually, rats choose to live in fields or outdoors, but as the cold weather increases across Stevenage and Hertfordshire, they decide to find more suitable homes and food sources. Sheds, homes, and business premises are common places to see rats as it’s dry and warm. Explore service
If you suspect you have a rat problem, please call Nex Pest Control as soon as possible.
Mice
Mice usually migrate from their nests if they get waterlogged, building works or lack food sources.
When looking for a new home, mice are opportunists and very inquisitive, so they can turn up in the most unusual places, but they will always pick up a scent for food. So don’t be surprised if you see them visiting your kitchen. Explore service
If you see mouse droppings around your building, call us.
Wasps
Wasps start appearing in the summer months in Hertfordshire from late June onward when the queen has laid her first batch of workers, and they are beginning to build their nests.
Wasps can be aggressive if they feel threatened and so will attack with a sting if they think they are at risk. Unfortunately, that includes around their nest, so you must take care if you are going near a wasp nest.

We recommend that you stay away and call Nex pest control to deal with them, we are always here to help.
Squirrels
It is good to see squirrels out in the wild where they belong; however, problems will begin when they decide to get into a loft space.
Squirrels do so much damage through their constant gnawing, chewing through timber joist supporting your roof or electric wiring in the loft, which can cause electrical faults or even electrical fires. Explore service
If you have squirrels running around your loft space, you must act immediately and call us.
Pigeons
Pigeons will create a dirty, smelly environment if they are left to roost and nest in an area that is not maintained. In addition, their guano (poo) is hazardous to health and can cause a slip hazard when wet.
Nex Pest Control can deal with this by providing bird proofing solutions or pigeon removal. Explore service

Our Pest Control Process
When attending a pest control call, our technicians follow a structured approach to ensure the infestation is dealt with effectively.
The first step involves a detailed inspection of the property to identify the pest species involved, locate nesting areas and determine how the pests are entering the building. Understanding the source of the infestation is essential in order to apply the most effective treatment.
Once the inspection is complete, targeted pest control treatments are applied using professional methods designed to eliminate the pest population safely.
Following treatment, customers are provided with advice on proofing measures and preventative steps that can reduce the risk of pests returning in the future. In some situations, follow-up visits may be recommended to ensure the infestation has been fully resolved.
