Pests We Treat in Croydon
- Rats and Mice: Croydon's terraced streets in Thornton Heath, Norbury and Broad Green see consistent rodent activity, with ageing drainage and shared rear access making it easy for rats to spread between properties. We carry out a full inspection, install bait stations and traps, seal entry points and include follow-up visits in our standard treatment. Find out more about our rat control and mice control services.
- Wasps: Larger properties in South Croydon, Purley and Coulsdon see significant wasp activity from late spring through September, with accessible roof voids and established gardens providing ideal nesting conditions. We offer same-day removal across all CR postcodes. See our wasp nest removal service.
- Bed Bugs: Croydon's high concentration of HMOs and converted properties across Thornton Heath and South Norwood makes bed bugs one of our most common residential callouts in the area. We use professional heat treatment, which eliminates all life stages including eggs in a single visit, without the need for repeat spray treatments. Learn more about our bed bug treatment.
- Cockroaches: The food businesses along Surrey Street Market, George Street and the London Road corridor generate regular cockroach pressure in commercial kitchens, and infestations can spread into neighbouring residential properties through shared pipework. We treat both homes and commercial premises and provide full Environmental Health documentation for commercial clients. See our cockroach control service.
- Pigeons and Birds: Croydon town centre has one of the highest pigeon densities in South London. The flat roofs of commercial buildings around the Whitgift area and the town centre's elevated walkways are persistent roosting sites. We install humane deterrents including spikes, netting and tensioned wire systems, and provide sanitisation of affected areas. See our full bird control service.
RESIDENTIAL
We carry out a thorough inspection to find the source of the problem, treat it properly and give you practical advice on preventing it from happening again. All residential treatments include follow-up visits and come with a guarantee. Find out more about our residential pest control.
COMMERCIAL
We work with businesses across Croydon including restaurants, takeaways, retail units, offices, schools and care homes. We provide full written reports for Environmental Health inspections and offer ongoing contracts with regular visits and included emergency callouts. Landlords and letting agents managing multiple properties across the borough can also ask about our multi-site contract options. Find out more about our commercial pest control.
About Croydon
Croydon is one of South London’s largest boroughs, around 10 miles from central London, with a busy town centre and a wide range of residential areas stretching south toward the Surrey border.
Where we work and what we find there:
- Croydon town centre and CR0 — the high density of food businesses around Surrey Street Market and George Street generates consistent commercial cockroach and rodent pressure
- Thornton Heath and South Norwood (CR7) — a high concentration of HMOs and converted properties makes this one of our most active areas for bed bug and cockroach callouts
- South Croydon and Selsdon (CR2) — larger family homes with established gardens see regular wasp nest activity throughout summer
- Purley and Coulsdon (CR8) — properties on the edge of the North Downs have higher rodent pressure in autumn as rats and mice move in from surrounding open land
- Addiscombe and Norbury — dense residential streets with older housing stock and shared drainage are a common source of rat ingress between neighbouring properties
