Nottingham City Council runs its own pest control service (details). It treats rats, mice (inside only), wasps, cockroaches (Council Tax Support recipients only). It doesn't treat bees, business premises. Rats inside £115, rats outside £100, mice (inside only) £115, wasps £58 (council price table, undated, read October 2026). Cockroaches are treated only for residents on Council Tax Support, free. Domestic properties only.

Scratching in the loft or walls, droppings in a cupboard or burrows by a shed are the usual first signs. If rats keep coming back, the cause is often a defective drain; our sister company, Urgent Drainage Solutions, can survey it by camera and fit a rat blocker. We cover City Centre, Lace Market, Hockley, Sneinton and the rest of NG1–NG9 and NG11.

Local Knowledge: Rat Control In Nottingham

Brown rats live close to water, and Nottingham has plenty of it. The River Trent loops along the south of the city, the River Leen runs down from Bulwell through Basford and Radford, and the Nottingham & Beeston Canal carries a five-mile channel from Beeston Lock to Meadow Lane Lock, past Castle Wharf and the waterside flats of the city centre. Banks, culverts and the sewers that discharge towards them give rats cover and a route into gardens and back yards.

That proximity is also a health point. The NHS says leptospirosis is spread in the pee of infected animals, most commonly rats, and that people usually catch it when river or canal water gets into the mouth, eyes or a cut. It's rare in the UK, but it is why we ask customers not to handle droppings or dead rats with bare hands.

Nottingham City Council charges £115 for rats inside a home and £100 outside, free on Council Tax Support, and it only treats domestic properties (council pest control page). Our rat control starts from £200, with tamper-resistant bait stations, trapping where it suits the job and follow-up visits included; most domestic jobs take two to three weeks. If the rats are coming up through a drain, we'll arrange a CCTV survey through our sister company, Urgent Drainage Solutions.

Rat Control Nottingham: FAQs

Rats from the towpath will keep exploring, so treatment is only half of it. We find how they're getting in, such as a gap under a shed, a broken air brick or an open drain, and quote separately for proofing it. Taking away bird food and securing compost bins makes a big difference near water.

Rat control in Nottingham starts from £200, with follow-up visits included. The final price depends on the size of the problem, the property and the time of the visit, and we'll explain the likely cost before any work starts. Proofing work is quoted separately.

We're about 35 minutes away and work 7 days a week, 6am–8pm, so same-day visits are often possible: call 07999 935 929 or book online. Most domestic rat treatments take two to three weeks with follow-up visits.

We use tamper-resistant bait stations placed where children and pets can't reach them, follow the UK rodenticide stewardship rules, and use traps instead of bait where that's safer. We'll explain exactly what we've put down and where.
