Pest Control Services in Bow E3

Pest control in Bow, E3

Bow is surrounded by water. The Regent's Canal runs down its western side past Mile End Park, the Hertford Union Canal runs along the top by Victoria Park, the River Lea and Bow Creek form its eastern edge, and the Limehouse Cut crosses the south. Inside that ring are Roman Road and its market, the Georgian houses of Tredegar Square, streets of Victorian terraces around Old Ford, post-war estates, and newer flats in the old industrial yards of Fish Island and Bromley by Bow.

Rats along the water

Canal towpaths, moorings and riverside land give rats cover and food close to homes. They follow drains and garden boundaries into back yards, and they burrow under sheds, decking and bin stores. In the older houses around Tredegar Square and Old Ford, a broken drain or an old sewer connection under the house is often how rats reach a basement or the space beneath a floor. We trace the route, treat, and recommend the repair or a non-return valve where the drains are the cause.

Warehouses and new flats

Fish Island and the streets beside the Lea have many converted warehouses and new canal-side blocks. Mice move through the service risers and timber floors of conversions, and pigeons roost on balconies and roof plant. In the new blocks, a building-wide approach with the managing agent works better than flat-by-flat visits.

Roman Road and the shops

Roman Road Market and the shops, cafes and takeaways along Roman Road and Bow Road need steady attention for mice, rats and cockroaches. Shared back yards and waste left out for collection keep drawing rodents, so regular visits usually cost less than repeated call-outs.
